Kansas City Chiefs (@Chiefs) By virtue of Saturday's win over Jacksonville, Mahomes, who is already the first player to win both league and Super Bowl MVP before his 25th birthday, broke the record he previously shared with Hall of Fame quarterbacks Terry Bradshaw, Troy Aikman and . He also would join Brady and Hall of Fame quarterback Ken Stabler as the only quarterbacks to make five straight conference championship game starts if he is cleared to play next Sunday.Bradshaw was under center for Pittsburgh for four AFC championships over a five-year span from 1972-76.

Brady then made his 13th title game start during his first season in Tampa. He won his seventh Super Bowl title and fifth MVP that season while leading the to a victory of Mahomes' Chiefs.
