Madness!
The Chiefs now meet the winners of the Buffalo Bills-Cincinnati Bengals matchup in the AFC Finals next Sunday.
Mahomes wins on one leg!
Star full choke to the heads! Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who is likely to be the MVP of the season, switches to “favorite passing stop” Travis Kelsey, who has a few more steps to run into the end zone. drop!
Jaguars respond! Beautiful lob pass from playmaker Trevor Lawrence to Christian Kirk. drop! He had already scored two goals in the regular season against the Chiefs.
The shock moment for the bosses: Jaguars defender Arden Key falls on Mahomes’ leg. Then he grabs his ankle and leaves the field. Sitting on the bench, he indicates that he needs a tape bandage. But he suddenly jumped up, ran back into the field, limped, and made the next attack.
Mad! He plays two running games and even a pass before being tackled and scored at quarter break. Mahomes then returns to play but continues to falter visibly.
A reporter for US station CBS, where the match is being broadcast live, said she heard Mahomes shout from the sidelines: “I’m fine, I can keep playing. Don’t worry!”
However, the bosses still sent him to the dressing room for more detailed investigations. Chad Henne standing next to him. Mahomes returns, but stays outside wrapped in a thick sweater – and sees how excelled Henne is! Watch out for Kelce – falling! Cheering “Hin, chicken” at Arrowhead Stadium.
Huge cheers at the start of the second half! Mahomes returns to play. Obviously, he can only put weight on one leg, but he still bites.
Jaguars down in the fourth quarter! Travis Etienne runs into the end zone. With an additional point being only 17:20. Is Jacksonville back again? This past weekend, Lawrence and company reversed a 27-0 deficit against the Los Angeles Chargers in the biggest comeback in playoff history.
Mahomes is limp – and still does magic! His pass lands at the Marqués Valdes-Scantling. drop! Initial decision! The Jaguars can’t have the curve anymore, just set up a 48-yard field goal.
