We’re halfway home on Championship Sunday.

The Kansas City Chiefs advanced to Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas, beating the Baltimore Ravens 17–10 in the AFC championship game.

For the Chiefs, it will be their sixth appearance in the Super Bowl, having gone 3–2 in previous attempts.

Meanwhile, the NFC title game kicks off at 6:40 p.m. ET, with the San Francisco 49ers hosting the Detroit Lions at Levi’s Stadium.

For the 49ers and coach Kyle Shanahan, it’s an opportunity to reach their second Super Bowl in five seasons. Meanwhile, the Lions haven’t been in this spot since 1991 and have never reached Super Sunday.

For Detroit, a win and every NFC team has reached at least one Super Bowl over the course of their respective franchise histories. 

AFC championship

Chiefs 17, Ravens 10

• What it means for Chiefs: Kansas City (14–6) has further cemented itself as a dynasty. The Chiefs are going to their fourth Super Bowl in five years, looking to become the first repeat champion since the 2003-04 New England Patriots. Patrick Mahomes threw for only 241 yards and a single touchdown, but for the first time in the postseason, Kansas City didn’t commit a turnover. Travis Kelce turned back the clock, catching 11 passes for 116 yards and a touchdown. For the Chiefs, immortality is at hand in Las Vegas two weeks from Sunday.
• What it means for Ravens: Baltimore (14–5) had an unbelievable season, but it ended in bitter disappointment. Lamar Jackson and the offense turned the ball over three times, including twice in the end zone to seal their fate despite a defensive effort that saw Kansas City shut out in the second half. Moving forward, the Ravens have a host of key free agents to retain, including Kevin Zeitler, Odell Beckham Jr., Justin Madubuike and others. A wonderful season once again for naught in Baltimore.
