You've seen it; we've all seen it.
For some reason, media and fans alike seem to be doing everything in their power to convince themselves the first meeting between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Cincinnati Bengals showed everyone that they have the formula to win again.

Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. Before we get to why this game will be different, let's look back at what had to happen for the Chiefs to lose to the Bengals the first time these teams met.
