Hello readers! Another week of National Football League action has come and gone. The final four teams that came into Sunday are now down to two as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Kansas City Chiefs will play for the ultimate in North American team sports: the Super Bowl. In this post, I'll talk about the two games. Let's get to work!
Tampa Bay 31, Green Bay 26: TW: Buccaneers; CV: Buccaneers
Well, it wasn't a blowout but it wasn't a win either for the Packers. Tom Brady played well enough to win as he threw for 280 yards with three touchdown passes and had three interceptions that would lead to Packers points. Leonard Fournette ran the ball with efficiency as he rushed for 55 yards with a touchdown. Aaron Rodgers threw for 346 yards with three touchdowns and had an interception in the game. His protection was broken down fairly often as Rodgers was sacked six times. Aaron Jones wouldn't get too much going in the running game as he rushed for 27 yards. Jamaal Williams rushed for 23 yards. One call during the 4th quarter really stuck out to the rest of America: Why didn't Packers head coach Matt LeFleur go for it on 4th down instead of getting the three points? You have one of the greatest quarterbacks in a generation in Aaron Rodgers and you don't give him the task to convert a first down. C'mon man. Maybe his reasoning was that maybe the defense could get a turnover as Tampa had been struggling with turnovers during the 2nd half. Either way, give confidence to your quarterback that he can do it. Doesn't really matter now. For the Packers, its another season without a Super Bowl appearance. The window is starting to close even tighter. It'll be a long year for Packerland.

Green Bay: eat cheese or something
Buffalo 24, Kansas City 38: TW: Chiefs; CV: Bills
The Chiefs were down 9-0 after the 1st quarter. Kansas City would go on a 38-15 run after the 1st quarter. Josh Allen threw for 287 yards with two touchdowns but also threw an interception in the game. Once again the Buffalo Bills would have to rely on the legs of Josh Allen as he rushed for 88 yards in the game. Devin Singletary would get 17 yards in the game. Buffalo would have to settle for field goals instead of touchdowns in this one but Tyler Bass would go 4/4 in field goals but 0/1 in PAT's. Patrick Mahomes was magical once again as he threw for 325 yards with three touchdowns. Kansas City's running game was just as stellar as the team combined for 114 yards rushing. Damien Williams rushed for 52 yards with a touchdown, Mecole Hardman rushed for 50 on one carry, and Clyde Edwards-Helaire rushed for seven yards with a touchdown run. For the Bills, it caps off one of their best seasons in two decades. If they can pick up a running back early in the draft, they could be a scary team to watch next season. For the Chiefs, they move on to the Super Bowl to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
