AFC championship will involve…
Talented passing displays from two of the NFL’s best young quarterbacks gave game one of the weekend an exciting start. Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars learning as they go, knew what lay ahead of them. Keeping it close the jaguars saw a light in their tunnel with Jamal Agnews kickoff returns putting them in stellar field position to start their drives. Mahomes looked strong early on getting into a rhythm with his main man Kelce. After suffering an ugly right knee/ankle twist, the KC quarterback scurried into the locker room and remained sidelined until after halftime!
Returning to the field with an uproar, the entire stadium was lifted seeing number 15 run out of the tunnel with the team. Beyond most would have believed, Jacksonville is well within reach of stopping the Chiefs AFC dominance. Lawrence unlike most in this situation before him, didn’t blink an eye, even trying to make plays to spark a momentum swing like a hard nosed run on 3rd and 9 he was able to convert. The most important note from this years Jaguars is that coach Pederson has turned his team into a contender of the future and they’ll see these bright lights again. As for Andy Reid and the Chiefs they’ll be playing in their fifth consecutive AFC championship game. Brilliance is a simple way to depict only the first of these divisional round games.
