While Kirk Cousins<\/strong> isn\u2019t on the field this playoff season, he\u2019s excited to see how the other teams fare \u2014 especially the Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> and Buffalo Bills.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis will be an interesting matchup because the Chiefs haven\u2019t played many road games in the playoffs lately,\u201d the Minnesota Vikings quarterback, 35, exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em> on Wednesday, January 17, while promoting his partnership with Tostitos. \u201cThey\u2019ve had such great seasons, they tend to always be at home, so going on the road into a tough environment will probably be another cold game for both teams.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cousins shared that he thinks the showdown, which will take place on Sunday, January 21, will be \u201cmust-see TV\u201d thanks to both teams having \u201creally good\u201d quarterbacks. While Cousins isn\u2019t sure who will be victorious, he admitted that the Bills\u2019 stadium \u201cstands out\u201d for being a tough place to compete.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe went there last year and we barely won,\u201d he confessed. \u201cBut it was a great environment for a pro football game.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve only played there for the Pro Bowl, but that\u2019s a really fun atmosphere, brand new stadium,\u201d he told Us<\/em>. \u201cThey call it The Death Star because of how it looks on the outside. So it\u2019ll be a great venue for the Super Bowl and I\u2019m excited to see them host the Super Bowl for the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n
