- Cincinnati beat Kansas City in overtime after thrilling game
- As it happened: Cincinnati Bengals 27-24 Kansas City Chiefs
Evan McPherson kicked a 31-yard field goal in overtime after Joe Burrow kept his cool to get the Cincinnati Bengals to the Super Bowl for the first time in 33 years with a 27-24 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
The Bengals erased an 18-point deficit tying an AFC title game record to take a late 24-21 lead on McPherson’s 52-yarder. But Harrison Butker’s 44-yard kick as time expired in regulation sent it to overtime a week after his 49-yarder on the final play of regulation did the same against Buffalo.
