Live updates of Cincinnati Bengals vs. Kansas City Chiefs

4:10 PM ET

Will the Kansas City Chiefs make it three straight trips to the Super Bowl, or will second-year quarterback Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals prevail in what promises to be an offensive showdown?

While Super Bowl LIV Most Valuable Player Patrick Mahomes has experience on his side, the fifth player in the past 30 seasons to enter a conference championship game while leading the NFL in both completion percentage and yards per attempt is Joe Burrow. He is pretty good at football.

We have everything you need to know as Cincinnati tries to earn its first AFC title since 1988, and Kansas City looks to keep the crown.

Q2.

Three different people scored a touchdown. He is in his bag.

The quarterback completes his third drive of the game with a toss to Mecole Hardman who makes it a 21-3 game.

When taking a lead of more than 15 points, Mahomes has never lost.

First Hill. Then Kelce. Now Hardman.

It's gonna be Mahomes. It is not clear what is more predictable at this point: the ability of the quarterback to scramble or the ability of the running back to score. The Chiefs scored on their first possession of the second quarter to make it a 14-3 game.

WHO ELSE BUT KELCE⁉️

Q2.

The Chiefs were on the board in less than a minute. He found one of his favorite targets, Tyreek Hill, in the end zone for a 10-yard touchdown. The catch is the fifth career postseason reception for Cheetah.

CAN'T KEEP UP WITH THAT CHEETAH SPEED 🐆

This one will not be an easy one. Evan McPherson, the kicker who made the game-winning field goal in the playoffs, made a field goal with under a minute remaining in the first quarter to give Cincinnati a 7-3 lead.
