On Sunday, Kansas City sealed the division championship with a rout of the Pittsburgh Steelers, 36-10. The Chiefs also required the Houston Texans to beat the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Winning the league seemed like a long shot going into the schedule. However, that upset occurred in the opening slate. Houston stunned the Chargers 41-29 with four touchdown runs in the 4th quarter, three among which were field goals.
It became possible for Patrick Mahomes and company to beat the Steelers and sweep the division. They did not spend time gaining possession of the game on the ball’s sides. To take a 23-0 lead into halftime, Kansas City scored touchdowns on three of its first four efforts. Before the half, Clyde Edwards-Helaire scored another touchdown on the run to seal the victory. Thanks to a touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes to Byron Pringle and Mecole Hardman.
What happened after the main ceremonial 2nd half?
After the foremost ceremonial second half, Mahomes completed 23 out of 30 passes for 258 yards, three touchdowns, and no turnovers. The defense also performed admirably, stopping Ben Roethlisberger. The remainder of the Steelers while the game’s outcome remained in doubt. It is hardly unexpected that the Chiefs are the national champions, given their talented squad, including Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Tyreek Hill, and others. But, their chosen route was undoubtedly not what they had in mind before the season began.
When the two-time defending AFC champions fell to these Tennessee Titans 27-3 in week 7, it was reasonable to question if their previous run of supremacy was approaching its end. Since then, everything they’ve accomplished is winning eight straight games. They won the AFC West and established themselves as the conference’s top team. They were competing for the AFC’s lone first-round farewell and the home-court advantage until the Super Bowl.
