The Chiefs capitalized on their opportunities, earning a Super Bowl LVII ticket for the second consecutive year.
The first half saw an impressive performance by the Chiefs, with quarterback Patrick Mahomes orchestrate an 86-yard touchdown drive, connecting with star tight end Travis Kelce.
The Ravens responded with a touchdown pass from Lamar Jackson to rookie wideout Zay Flowers, tying the score at 7-7. However, the Chiefs dominated the first half, leading 17-7 as they entered halftime with a 52-yard field goal by Harrison Butker.

On the NFC side, the Detroit Lions showcased their best first-half performance of the season in the NFC Championship game against the San Francisco 49ers.
However, self-inflicted errors in the second half led to a heartbreaking 34-31 loss at Levi’s Stadium.
The Lions, who haven’t played for a title since 1957, remain one of four teams never to reach the Super Bowl.
