The entrants in next month's Super Bowl were decided on Sunday.

AMERICAN FOOTBALL CONFERENCE:

At Kansas City, Missouri:

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw for 294 yards and three touchdowns while running for 57 more yards and another score as the Kansas City Chiefs advanced to their first Super Bowl in 50 years after scoring 28 unanswered points as they overcame a ten-point deficit and overcame the visiting Tennessee Titans 35-24 in the AFC Championship Game. 



NATIONAL FOOTBALL CONFERENCE:

At Santa Clara, California:

Running back Raheem Mostert ran for a franchise-record (regular or post-season) 220 yards while scoring four touchdowns as the San Francisco 49ers overpowered the visiting Green Bay Packers 37-20 to win the NFC Championship Game.  The Niners are heading to their first Super Bowl in seven years (and will be aiming for their first Super Bowl championship in 25 years)
