KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs had 13 seconds they’d rather forget late in the first half against the Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC title game.

Kansas City had the ball at the Bengals 5 with 13 seconds left but failed to score. That opened the door for the Bengals to rally in the second half and win 27-24 in overtime.

Thirteen seconds was how long it took Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes to get Kansas City into field goal range at the end of regulation the previous week in a thrilling divisional-round win over Buffalo.

The Chiefs won the coin toss in overtime again this time, but Mahomes was intercepted on Kansas City’s first possession.
