The Chiefs came into the second half with all the momentum, but since it started, their offense is looking just as flat as ever. In the waning minutes of the third quarter, Patrick Mahomes threw a crucial interception to Bengals DL BJ Hill which set up a Burrow TD pass to Ja'Marr Chase and a two-point conversion to Trent Taylor, tying the game up at 21.
Mahomes pick is only his second career interception in the playoffs and it couldn't have come at a worse time. Here is a look at the interception and the resulting touchdown and two-point conversion that came from it.
The Chiefs' defense was able to get back at the Bengals with L' Jarius Sneed picking off Burrow. However, Mahomes and co were unable to convert.
Kansas City has failed to put up any points since the start of the second half. With an Evan McPherson field goal, the Bengals have the lead. Cincinnati has been able to rattle off 21 unanswered points.
