Damien Cox: Chiefs hold off Bengals this time to reach third Super Bowl in four years
They pulled ahead on a gorgeous touchdown pass from Mahomes to Marquez Valdes-Scantling, but then disaster hit. Mahomes went to throw a short out to his right, fumbled the ball awkwardly without being pressured, and the Bengals recovered at the Chiefs’ 45-yard-line. A few plays later, after Burrow hit Ja’Marr Chase on an incredibly gutsy fourth-and-six call for 35 yards, the Bengals scored on a short run to tie the game 20-20.Last year, the Chiefs blew an 18-point lead.
The Eagles return to the Super Bowl for the first time since 2017 when they beat New England. The Chiefs are back in the big game for the third time in four years. In the first half, Cincinnati looked very little like the club that was so dominant in Buffalo the week before. The Bengals couldn’t protect Burrow, couldn’t run the ball and couldn’t finish two drives deep into Kansas City territory. The only reason they were within a converted touchdown at halftime was because the Chiefs weren’t a whole lot better.
