But the emergence of But soon it became evident that Smith never had control of the football and – had the catch been challenged – it would have been ruled incomplete and a first down for the 49ers. The poor guy was pressured left and right and struggled to generate positive momentum, save for a second-quarter touchdown – San Francisco’s only score of the game – that was all about Christian McCaffrey’s vision and cutting. But Purdy’s success earlier in the season is also a testament to Shanahan’s playcalling and ability to disguise and adjust – few coaches would have been able to drag their team this far with so many injuries at quarterback. Add Jones to the list of Chiefs players who were bothered by the Burrowhead moniker. Go for it on fourth down or play it safe and attempt the field goal. Any debate about identity of the best quarterback in the NFL has been put firmly to bed. He was the recipient of a perfectly precise touchdown throw, in which Mahomes had to push hard off his injured right ankle. There was Zac Taylor with the ballsiest play call you’ll see on 4th and 6 that resulted in Joe Burrow’s deep completion to a double-covered Ja’Marr Chase. As with all Bengals-Chiefs matchups over the past couple of years, this one was full of intrigue. But Mahomes is a different breed: there wasn’t a scintilla of doubt he would play against the Bengals. And doing it on one leg and continuing to perform as three of his receivers went down injured is on another level.

“This is pretty spectacular,” said Reid about returning to the NFL's championship game. We were able to finish the job this time.” “Mahomes is the 'G.O.A.T.' He played that with a hurt ankle. Each side in that fixture will have a player named Kelce. “The hospitality here is second to none. “We needed to get this win,” Mahomes said after the win. “My mom can’t lose!” Most important, the defense kept the Bengals offense out of the end zone while building a 13-6 halftime lead. 12, in Glendale, Arizona.

A rookie drafted dead last in the NFL draft - he got the starting job because of injuries to the top two San Francisco quarterbacks. So a quick look forward to Super Bowl LVII in Arizona. In the first quarter, San Francisco quarterback Brock Purdy got hit by an Eagles defender, injured his throwing arm. And then he led the 49ers on a 12-game win streak heading into yesterday's game. Mahomes has been in the league since 2017, and he has become, by consensus, the NFL's best quarterback. He played in the Super Bowl last season. He got a 15-yard penalty for it. The Chiefs beat Cincinnati 23-20 on a last-second field goal, while the Eagles dominated the San Francisco 49ers 31-7. All right, so let's start with the close game for the AFC championship. Let me first say to Philly fans, A, so they don't get too annoyed, the Eagles were dominant on offense and defense, and they are an absolutely worthy Super Bowl contestant. Did their game match the hype? Super Bowl LVII is set, as the Philadelphia Eagles will play the Kansas City Chiefs in a couple of weeks.

“It all happened so fast …” he said late Sunday night after the host Chiefs beat the Bengals 23-20 in the AFC Championship Game at GEHA Field at Arrowhead ...

No wonder that when Kelce spoke of Mahomes after the game, his voice seemed to quiver. Afterward, Mahomes said, “I couldn’t really see in front of him, so I tried to throw a line drive.” and that moment becoming the gateway to victory. “Obviously, there were times where you could see it (the ankle) wouldn’t let me do what I wanted to,” he said. Even five years into this, it remains a rare and precious thing to see … “Our players, our team, coaches, we’re all lucky to have him in that position,” Reid said. “It takes everyone but she (led) the charge all week!!!” In his second, he was a sensation who stoked the Chiefs to their first Super Bowl in 50 years. And, of course, the mind-blowing Kelce Bowl between Chiefs tight end Travis and his brother Jason, the Eagles’ center. “I thought that (was) just kind of how it went.” 12 Super Bowl showdown with the Philadelphia Eagles in Glendale, Arizona. and surely into the Feb.

It was a wild ride for NFL fans and bettors on Sunday, with the AFC and NFC Championships providing very different outcomes. Drake, the rapper and face of.

One or the other is about to take the lead in the family Super Bowl ring feud. The two brothers each have a Super Bowl ring to their credit. By late in the fourth, the game was tied at 20 when disaster struck for the Bengals. The Bengals’ defensive end took out Mahomes after the QB had stepped out of bounds after picking up a first down. A field goal later, the game was over. The onslaught continued with a touchdown, thanks to Mahomes’ 14-yard pass to Travis Kelce. At halftime, the scoreboard read 13-6 in favor of the Chiefs. Not even running back Christian McCaffrey, for all his efforts, was able to make a real difference for the 49ers. The Philadelphia Eagles, led by quarterback Jalen Hurts, will play in a Super Bowl for the first time since 2018. Tempers flared and a fight broke out, leading to the ejection of Niners offensive lineman Trent Williams and Eagles free safety K’Von Wallace. However, he can’t take the blame for the loss. Drake, the rapper and face of Stake.com, had a good day, winning back some of the losses he’s suffered in high-profile bets over the past year.

The Kansas City Chiefs kick a game-winning field goal at the death to ensure they will face the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl 57.

This season's Super Bowl takes place in Arizona on Sunday, 12 February (23:30 GMT), with the big game making a swift return to the Phoenix suburb of Glendale as the State Farm Stadium has already hosted NFL's championship game twice - in 2008 and 2015. [As it happened: Chiefs to face Eagles in Super Bowl 57](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/american-football/64428667) [NFL's final four meet for spot in Super Bowl 57](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/american-football/64396384) That means the Eagles will play in the Super Bowl for the fourth time and the first time since 2018, when they And Cincy drew level after their first possession of the third quarter, Burrow floating a 27-yard pass for Tee Higgins to score in the corner of the end zone. The visitors' Joe Burrow hoped to reach a second straight Super Bowl in just his third season, while the Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes aimed for a third Super Bowl in five seasons as a starter. The Kansas City Chiefs kicked a game-winning field goal at the death to ensure they will face the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl 57.

It wasn't just Mahomes and Kelce. A huge group of new Kansas City faces came up clutch in the tense environment of an AFC Championship Game.

[Chris Jones](https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/3044859/chris-jones) and Andy Reid -- the mainstays who have been the standouts in an incredible run of AFC dominance. [Carlos Dunlap](https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/13274/carlos-dunlap), signed early in training camp to help bolster the pass rush, didn't get one of the five sacks, but he hit Burrow twice and was a key part of the pressure package. [Marcus Kemp](https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/3046399/marcus-kemp), a fifth-year practice squad receiver who had four catches in his career and none this season but was forced into action after injuries to Toney, Hardman and [JuJu Smith-Schuster](https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/3120348/juju-smith-schuster), caught a 13-yard pass for a first down at one point in the fourth quarter. And so somehow, in a year when the Bills and the Bengals took turns as favorites in a conference Mahomes and Reid have owned for half a decade, the Chiefs have emerged scarier than ever. "The free agents, the guys we got in the draft, obviously they've helped us a lot and we're going to need them even more in the Super Bowl, but I can't thank them enough for choosing Kansas City," Kelce said. We don't tend to think of the Chiefs like this. Pacheco was third or fourth on the running back depth chart coming out of camp but was the starter by the second half of the season and is a key reason Kansas City is still playing. Watson was inactive for the game, and McDuffie is one of the team's starting corners, so when Toney and Hardman went out of Sunday's game with injuries, Moore's antennae went up. Moore had to backpedal to field the punt at his own 18-yard line. We roll our eyes when a team like the Chiefs says "nobody thought we could win," and while that wasn't technically true for this game, enough people picked the Bengals that the Chiefs had the right to say it. "Here's something I'm doing for the first time, and I keep messing up, and they're out there like, 'We believe in you. But even after the Chiefs stopped letting Moore return punts in games, they kept working with him on it in practice.
