Chiefs defeat Bills in overtime in wild divisional round to secure spot in AFC title game

In a never-say-die showdown between two of the NFL's top teams, and two of its bright young quarterbacks, the Bills and Chiefs played a classic Sunday night decided by one of them calling tails and the other making him pay for it.Patrick Mahomes promptly followed it by marching Kansas City downfield against the NFL's top-ranked but exhausted defense, then finding Travis Kelce in the corner of the end zone from 8 yards, giving the Chiefs a memorable 42-36 victory.

He finished with 378 yards passing and three touchdowns, including a 64-yarder to Tyreek Hill during the thrilling final minutes of regulation and the clutch throw to Kelce that sent players streaming off the bench. "They made a couple more plays than we did obviously down the stretch," Bills coach Sean McDermott said."The guys played their guts out, and you got to do a little better on the last couple of plays there."

Not to be outdone, the Chiefs answered when Mahomes found Hill over the middle. The fleet-footed wide receiver ran away from cornerback Levi Wallace for a 64-yard touchdown that gave Kansas City the lead back.

It was an amazing game.

Total snoozefest. Couldn’t keep my eyes open during this boring game.

It wasn't 'wild' at all. What a lame descriptor.

This was an amazing NFL game.

If you weren't rooting for the Bills in the last quarter, you ain't black.

Overtime in the NFL makes no sense…..Kansas still sucks. Not worth all the hype.

Fantastic game

I hate the chiefs more now than I do the patriots
