The Kansas City Chiefs got the ball next, but their drive was even shorter. They went three-and-out and punted the ball back to Green Bay. The Packers offense came out firing again on their next drive. They quickly moved the ball down the field, but once again, they stalled near midfield and had to punt.
The second half
The Chiefs came out swinging in the second half, with Mahomes leading the team on a 75-yard touchdown drive on their first possession.
