Chiefs Steal a Thrilling Victory in Overtime Thriller Against Bucs
The Kansas City Chiefs pulled off a dramatic overtime win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, leaving fans on the edge of their seats. The game went down to the wire, with both teams trading blows throughout the fourth quarter and into overtime.
It was a back-and-forth slugfest, with both offenses firing on all cylinders. Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs' star quarterback, looked like he was in vintage form, throwing for over 300 yards and a couple of touchdowns. Tom Brady, the ageless wonder, kept the Bucs in the game with his veteran savvy and a few timely throws.
