CBS Sports HQ published this video item, entitled “Browns vs. Chiefs: Gutsy 4th down call propels Kansas City to the Championship Game | CBS Sports HQ” – below is their description.
The Kansas City Chiefs are headed to the AFC title game for the third consecutive season. Andy Reid’s club once again is on the doorstep of the Super Bowl courtesy of a 22-17 win over the Cleveland Browns that was action-packed all the way through the final seconds. In the first half, it looked like Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs were going to cruise their way to victory even as the Browns defense held them to kick four field-goal attempts throughout the game. However, once Mahomes was knocked out of the game due to a concussion, the flood gates felt like they were going to open in favor of Cleveland. In the end, Baker Mayfield and the rest of the Browns simply couldn’t fully get over the hump.
Backup Chad Henne was forced to come in for the injured Mahomes and he did just enough to keep his team ahead. He completed six of his eight passes for 66 yards and an interception but also had a key 13-yard run that helped solidify the win late in the fourth quarter. Mahomes, meanwhile, finished with 255 yards passing and two total touchdowns as he completed 70% of his throws. Travis Kelce (109) and Tyreek Hill (110) both crossed over the 100-yards receiving mark for the game and the Chiefs, as a team, ran the ball well, totaling 123 yards on the ground on 5.1 yards per carry.

In This Story: Super Bowl
The Super Bowl is the annual championship game of the National Football League (NFL) – also known as American Football – in the United States. Since 2004, the game has been played on the first Sunday in February. It is the culmination of a regular season that begins in the late summer of the previous year.
The game was created as part of a 1966 merger agreement between the NFL and its rival the American Football League (AFL). The first game was played on January 15, 1967, after both leagues had completed their respective 1966 seasons. After the merger, each league was re-designated as a “conference”, and the game has since been played between the conference champions to determine the NFL’s league champion.
The New England Patriots and the Pittsburgh Steelers have the most Super Bowl championship titles with six each. The Patriots have the most Super Bowl appearances with 11. The National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC) are tied with 27 Super Bowl wins each.
The Super Bowl is the second-largest day for U.S. food consumption, after Thanksgiving Day. In addition, the Super Bowl has frequently been the most-watched American television broadcast of the year; the seven most-watched broadcasts in American television history are Super Bowls.
In 2015, Super Bowl XLIX became the most-watched American television program in history with an audience of 114.4 million viewers, the fifth time in six years that the game had set a record. The Super Bowl is also among the most-watched sporting events in the world, and is second only to the UEFA Champions League (soccer) final as the most watched annual sporting event worldwide.
Commercial airtime during the Super Bowl broadcast is the most expensive of the year because of the high viewership, leading to companies regularly developing their most expensive advertisements for this broadcast. Watching and discussing the broadcast’s commercials has become a significant aspect of the event. In addition, popular singers and musicians have performed during the event’s pre-game and halftime ceremonies.
