Mahomes Chiefs Surpassed Lawrence’s Jags

In a much-anticipated duel, the Kansas City Chiefs managed to clinch their ticket to the AFC Championship game for the fifth consecutive season. Andy Reid’s team defeated Doug Pederson and Trevor Lawrence’s Jacksonville Jaguars in a game that finished 27-20.

Patrick Mahomes suffered an ankle injury late in the first quarter after taking a low hit. He missed a few downs. However, he pushed aside the pain before returning to take Kansas City to victory in the second half of the game.

Mahomes set a record with the feat. He became the first QB in NFL history to earn five conference championship titles before turning 30. The Chiefs have also become the third team to appear in five consecutive conference championship contests.
