It was a great day in the NFL as the 2018 Playoffs got started with two exciting games. They both came down to the fourth quarter and the home teams had a very tough time and their seasons came to an unexpected end.
The early game was between the Tennessee Titans and the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs were big favorites at -8.5 points. Everything seemed to be working for Alex Smith and the Chiefs in the first half as they had a 21-3 lead. Alex Smith threw 2 touchdowns and it seemed as not only would they be advancing to the next round, but that they would be a very scary team in the AFC.
The third quarter stared and the Kansas City Chiefs season came to a screeching end. Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota played his best half of the season. He would throw 2 touchdown passes in the second half and lead the team to score 19 straight points. The Titans would win the game 22-21 and advance to the next round of the AFC playoffs in dramatic fashion.
Mariota would only have modest numbers by completing 19-31 on the day for 205 yards and 2 touchdowns with 1 interception. Alex Smith on the other hand completed 24-33 for 264 yards and 2 touchdowns and with zero interceptions. But the Titans would get the last laugh with the victory.
The Falcons will play at the Philadelphia Eagles on Saturday while the Chiefs will face the Patriots or Steelers.
