Getty Images Andy Reid ranks seventh on the career wins list. He does not have a Super Bowl championship, but the Chiefs coach gets another shot at completing his Hall of Fame resume Feb. 2. Reid needs a marketing deal to go with his second Super Bowl trip after being asked how he celebrated...

Getty Images The 49ers ran the ball 42 times and threw it eight times during Sunday’s 37-20 win over the Packers. The men charged with catching passes are OK with that. “I mean, I think our mentality is, ‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it,’” receiver Deebo Samuel said, via Jennifer Lee Chan of...

Getty Images Joe Montana hasn’t attended many (any?) Super Bowls since his last as a player, a 55-10 victory over the Broncos to end the 1989 season. He even skipped Super Bowl XL when the league honored the MVPs from the previous 39 Super Bowls. The Hall of Fame quarterback, though, told Sam...

Getty Images Last year, the AFC and NFC Championship games featured exciting, close contests that went to overtime. One, the Rams win over the Saints, sparked a major controversy regarding uncalled defensive pass interference. This, the games weren’t as compelling. And the TV ratings reflected...

Getty Images After beating the Packers on Sunday night, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said he was hopeful that running back Tevin Coleman would be able to play in the Super Bowl after injuring his shoulder. Shanahan gave an update on Coleman’s condition at a Monday press conference and...

Getty Images Twenty-five years ago, when the 49ers last won the Super Bowl, the organization had received permission from the league to wear as often as they wished the shadow-numbered throwback jerseys they had donned in honor of the NFL’s 75th season. With the 49ers returning to the Super...

Getty Images Patrick Mahomes is used to making jaw-dropping plays. But not with his feet. The Chiefs quarterback marveled at his own 27-yard touchdown run just before halftime, which helped propel his team back from another early deficit, and added another “I haven’t run that far since high...

Getty Images The NFL does not have a “sky judge,” the oft-proposed official who watches the TV feed of the game and tells the officials on the field anything they missed. But Tony Romo may have served that role during Sunday’s AFC Championship Game. With the Titans’ defense on the field late...

Getty Images It’s fitting the Super Bowl LIV will be played in Miami. The quarterbacks of the two teams that qualified for the game currently are playing like a pair of Dolphins Hall of Fame quarterbacks once did. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is, obviously, Dan Marino. Like Marino...

Getty Images Chiefs receiver Tyreek Hill, already a controversial figure for off-field incidents and allegations, created a stir before Sunday’s AFC Championship game began. During pre-game introductions, Hill got on all fours and then lifted a leg, mimicking a urinating dog. Then-Giants...

Getty Images It looked like a run but counted as a catch-and-run. Whatever it was, just call it a touchdown. The Chiefs got on the scoreboard with a 8-yard scoring play by Tyreek Hill with 46 seconds remaining in the first quarter. Patrick Mahomes flipped the ball forward to Hill on the jet...

Getty Images Ryan Tannehill attempted 15 passes and threw for 72 yards against the Patriots in the wild-card round. He attempted 14 passes and threw for 88 yards against the Ravens in the divisional round. A lot was made of the Titans becoming the first team with back-to-back playoff wins with...

Getty Images You’d think after Dee Ford a year ago, the Chiefs would be a bit more mindful of penalties in the playoffs. But they continue to shoot themselves in the foot, as they’re falling in a hole against the Titans because of it. The Titans just went up 17-7, thanks to a touchdown pass...

Getty Images Tyreek Hill has scored again. The Chiefs receiver caught a 20-yard touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes with 4:03 remaining in the first half. It has cut the Titans’ lead to 17-14. Hill scored his first touchdown on a flip from Mahomes in the backfield that Hill ran 8 yards to the...

Getty Images Patrick Mahomes has plenty of weapons around him. That often understates what a weapon he is himself. The Chiefs quarterback just gave his team a 21-17 lead just before half with a ridiculous 27-yard touchdown run. He appeared to be stopped, down, or out of bounds at least three...

Getty Images Chiefs offensive tackle Eric Fisher had one of the most boisterous celebrations of the season on Sunday, grabbing a couple beers from fans in the front row after a Chiefs touchdown. The NFL was not amused. Fisher was fined $14,037 for the celebration, in which he dumped some beer...

Getty Images No one currently can stop Titans running back Derrick Henry. Chiefs defensive end Frank Clark believes he can, and he’s not afraid to say so. “He’s not hard to hit,” Clark told James Palmer of NFL Media. “He’s just a big guy. 240, 245, 250. Honestly he should be running harder at...

Getty Images Dee Ford used to wear No. 55 as a pass rusher in Kansas City. Frank Clark now wears No. 55 as a pass rusher in Kansas City. If not for Ford lining up offsides at a crucial moment in last year’s AFC Championship Game, the Chiefs might not have traded Ford to the 49ers and traded...

Getty Images Would the Chiefs have won Super Bowl LIII if not for Dee Ford‘s offsides penalty in the AFC Championship Game? Would Ford be in San Francisco now? The 49ers defensive lineman indicated he hasn’t thought about the penalty that negated a game-sealing interception for the Chiefs with...

You read PFT, obviously. You watch PFT Live, hopefully. You listen to #PFTPM, possibly. I know, it can be confusing to figure out where and how to find podcasts (even though they’re pretty much everywhere). So we make it easy for you. From time to time, we drop into the PFT content a player...
