The Kansas City Chiefs are headed to their fourth Super Bowl in five years and this time, they punched their ticket to the Super Bowl on the road. They had to go into Baltimore and face their vaunted defense and run-heavy offense and guess what? The Chiefs came out on top.
Kansas City entered the game as roughly 4-point underdogs but ended up winning the game by a touchdown. All of KC's 17 points came in the first half but they were able to score enough points before the Ravens defense pinned its ears back.
Speaking of tough defenses, the talk all week was about the Ravens defense and how scary they were. Meanwhile, people forgot that the Chiefs' defense was just as scary, if not more so.
Let's see how Chiefs fans are soaking in this win.
Chiefs fans sound off after beating Ravens in AFC Championship Game
Zay Flowers had a taunting penalty, fumbled in the end zone and cut his hand punching the bench in a 5 minute span. Life is tough sometimes.

Zay Flowers had a productive day for the Ravens offense but he had two brutally bad moments as well. The first was taunting L'Jarius Sneed after coming down with a big catch and costing the Ravens 15 yards. The second was a few plays later when he fumbled the ball outside of the end zone and the Chiefs recovered it. As Taylor Swift sings, that's karma.

Here's another Zay Flowers reference. Karma.
The poor Ravens. All week they practiced for Patrick Mahomes, and then Lavon showed up.

'Nuff said.
Still think having your kicker heckle the chiefs two best players was smart?

I think the Ravens probably wish they had a redo button here.

It's been a rough regular season for Marquez Valdes-Scantling but the dude shows up in the postseason. Also, his tweets are gold.
Good point. Lamar throws the ball to everyone on the field. Regardless of uniform color. Very unselfish.

Lamar Jackson definitely deserves the MVP award this season but he did not come through in the playoffs. That interception he threw in the second half was abysmal.
