KANSAS CITY, Mo. ― In a game that was billed as a showdown between two of the NFL’s top gunslingers, Patrick Mahomes and Joe Burrow didn’t disappoint.
That sets up a Super Bowl showdown between the Chiefs and Andy Reid’s former longtime team, the Eagles, on Feb. 12 in Glendale, Ariz.Run the ball! Hit the QB! Eagles beat 49ers Philly-style, 31-7, to reach Super Bowl LVIIKnown primarily for their prolific offense, the Chiefs’ defense wreaked havoc on the Bengals early and often, sacking Burrow five times, forcing two turnovers, and buckling down in the red zone at key moments.
Meanwhile, “Joe Cool” was anything but in the early stages Sunday, as the third-year signal caller was sacked three times in the first quarter, and was picked off by Chiefs corner Jaylen Watson on a play when Tee Higgins wasn’t yet looking for the ball. After a key defensive stand by the Bengals to keep the score at 13-3, Burrow and the Bengals finally got something going via the two-minute drill and cut the K.C. lead to 13-6 at the half.
Both defenses stiffened as things progressed late into the fourth quarter before Mahomes got one last chance with 30 seconds to go following a good punt return from Skyy Moore. On third-and-4, Mahomes hobbled for the decisive first down, tiptoeing out of bounds before Bengals defensive end Joseph Ossai shoved him late. Ossai’s complete lapse in judgment resulted in a 15-yard penalty tacked on to the run, setting the stage for Butker to become the hero.
