Welcome to the official @NFLResearch AFC Championship preview thread.

Read on for the best numbers, notes and nuggets on Sunday's game between the @Titans and @Chiefs.

#Titans | #ChiefsKingdom
The Chiefs average 37.7 PPG in the playoffs with Patrick Mahomes, the most by any team with any starting QB in the Super Bowl era.

#ChiefsKingdom | @Chiefs | @PatrickMahomes
Andy Reid has 220 wins, including playoffs, the most by any head coach to not win a Super Bowl or NFL Championship.

#ChiefsKingdom | #Chiefs
Most Rushing Yards in Any 8-Game Span
Super Bowl Era, Including Playoffs

• 2012 MIN Adrian Peterson - 1,322
• 2019 TEN Derrick Henry - 1,273
• 1984 HOF Eric Dickerson - 1,249
• 1980 HOF Earl Campbell - 1,245

#Titans | @Titans | @KingHenry_2
@Titans @KingHenry_2 Patrick Mahomes has a 113.2 passer rating in 3 career playoff games — the highest of any player with at least 100 pass attempts since 1950.

#ChiefsKingdom | @Chiefs | @PatrickMahomes
@Titans @KingHenry_2 @Chiefs @PatrickMahomes Travis Kelce averages 79.9 receiving YPG in the playoffs, the most in the Super Bowl era by a tight end (min. 5 games).

#ChiefsKingdom | @Chiefs | @tkelce
@Titans @KingHenry_2 @Chiefs @PatrickMahomes @tkelce Mike Vrabel has a chance to become the second head coach to beat two teams he formerly played for (Patriots, Chiefs) in the same postseason.

The first?

Hall of Famer Don Shula (beat CLE & WAS) with the 1972 Dolphins, still the only undefeated #SuperBowl champion in NFL history.
@Titans @KingHenry_2 @Chiefs @PatrickMahomes @tkelce Heading into Kansas City on Sunday, Derrick Henry has 1,159 rushing yards in road games this season (including playoffs).

That is the most by any player in the last 70 seasons.

#Titans | @Titans | @KingHenry_2
@Titans @KingHenry_2 @Chiefs @PatrickMahomes @tkelce With 4+ pass TD on Sunday, @PatrickMahomes can become the only player in NFL history with 4+ pass TD in back-to-back playoff games.

Only @JoeMontana has had two such games in a single postseason (1989).

His 1989 49ers beat the Broncos 55-10 in Super Bowl XXIV.

“The best quarterbacks treat every game the same. Whether we’re playing the only game on Thursday night or 1 o’clock on Sunday … it doesn’t matter"

We checked.

Welcome to the official @NFLResearch NFC Championship preview thread.

Read on for the best numbers, notes and nuggets on Sunday's game between the @packers and @49ers.

#GoPackGo | #GoNiners
The 2019 NFC Championship will be the first conference championship game in which neither of the starting QBs recorded a start in their first 2 NFL seasons.

Aaron Rodgers sat behind HOF Brett Favre.

Jimmy Garoppolo sat behind GOAT Tom Brady.

#GoPackGo | #GoNiners
Richard Sherman (@RSherman_25) has as many catches (1 INT) as he has allowed in coverage (1 reception) in two career NFC Championship appearances (both wins).

#GoNiners | @49ers | Per @PFF
