The Kansas City Chiefs — coming off of a win in what some have called the greatest game ever played — had one more task in front of them to advance to a third consecutive Super Bowl. The Cincinnati Bengals — who in Week 17 were the last team to defeat the Chiefs — loomed in the AFC Championship game. Rather than taking revenge on the Bengals, the same script played out as the Chiefs played a dominant first half, only to see the Bengals come back and win 27-24 in the second thirty minutes.
