BALTIMORE -- Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is expected to be named MVP for his incredible regular season, but Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Parick Mahomes has saved his best work for the playoffs.

Teaming up with All-Pro tight end Travis Kelce on Sunday, Mahomes won his third straight road postseason game with a 17-10 AFC Championship Game victory over the top seed Baltimore Ravens. The defending champion Chiefs return to the Super Bowl for the fourth time since 2019, looking for their third title.

After giving up a touchdown on Baltimore's second possession, the Chiefs' defense led the way, as it has done much of the season.
