Kyle Shanahan can finally get past the Super Bowl hurdle and shed the label of a big-game coaching dud.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes says his father is “doing good” after his arrest for driving while intoxicated.

The Dallas Cowboys like to call themselves “America’s Team,” but in truth, plenty of teams have claimed that title over the years.

Patrick Mahomes is chasing Tom Brady.

Patrick Mahomes has gone from having never played on the road in the postseason to having never lost on the road in the postseason.

For the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers, getting to the conference title game is becoming old hat.

It’s only fitting that the top two quarterbacks in the regular season based on All-Pro voting are the last two quarterbacks standing in the NFL this season.

For Kyle Shanahan, the chance to coach the San Francisco 49ers against the Dallas Cowboys in a playoff game is a throwback to when that rivalry was the biggest in football.

Longtime San Francisco 49ers executive John McVay has died at age 91.

The downturn in offense from the first two weeks of the NFL season hasn’t touched all corners of the league with a handful of players and teams putting up staggering numbers.

Miley Cyrus has only been alive for about half the Super Bowls ever played, but her setlist on the eve of the 56th spanned the whole history of the big game and then some.

The Chiefs have won a record six straight AFC West titles and will be hosting their record fourth straight AFC title game when Cincinnati visits Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday.

Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is likely headed into retirement after a 42-21 loss to the Chiefs in the wild-card round of the playoffs on Sunday night.

The last time the Kansas City Chiefs played the Pittsburgh Steelers in the playoffs, Tyreek Hill was a wide-eyed rookie wide receiver, Chris Jones was learning the ropes at defensive tackle and Travis Kelce was just becoming one of the NFL's best tight ends.

Kyle Shanahan was a teenager watching on the sideline when the heated playoff rivalry between the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers reached a fever pitch with three straight NFC title game matchups.

It was another blowout-filled weekend in the NFL only this time several of teams on the losing end came from teams near the top of the standings.

Sometimes, the abdicating king, or the deposed one, returns to his kingdom.

Matt Ryan has watched Joe Montana, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady switch teams, so he knows there’s a possibility he won’t finish his career with the Atlanta Falcons.

The NFL has the first 14-11 halftime score in its 102 seasons.

Ryan Fitzpatrick says he did not need the public declaration from Ron Rivera that he's Washington starting quarterback.

A $100 million fix to stop a San Francisco luxury high-rise from sinking and tilting even more is on hold while engineers try to learn why the building has sunk another inch during the repair.

Brady is shooting for his seventh ring when he leads the Buccaneers (14-5) against the reigning champion Chiefs (16-2) in Super Bowl 55 on Sunday. Brady's postseason record includes a 33-11 mark, 14 conference championship appearances and 10 trips to the Super Bowl. If the Bucs dethrone the champs, Mahomes would become the sixth quarterback Brady has beaten multiple times in the playoffs. Although he’s not showing his age, 43, Brady will be the oldest to play in a Super Bowl, displacing Colts kicker Matt Stover, who was 42 in Super Bowl 44. Unlike Warner, he wasn't going to get ahead of himself and talk about anything but the Super Bowl title in front of him.

In this still image from video provided by the NFL, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (15) speaks during Opening Night for the NFL Super Bowl 55 football game Monday, Feb. 1, 2021. In his short time as a starting quarterback, Mahomes has put together perhaps the best three-year stretch of play the game has ever seen. That would make the 25-year-old Mahomes the youngest quarterback ever with two Super Bowl wins, reaching the mark a year before Brady and Ben Roethlisberger both did. Tampa Bay cut its blitz by more than half in the first meeting when Mahomes gashed the Bucs for 462 yards and three TDs. Mahomes also thrives on corner and go routes as his strong arm helps him make some of the more difficult throws.

It gave New England its third straight trip to the Super Bowl, and Brady's last of nine as a member of the Patriots. He's leading the Buccaneers to only their second Super Bowl; the Bucs won on their first trip, back in 2002. But nobody would mistake Johnson for Brady, who could join Peyton Manning as the only other quarterback to win a Super Bowl with two franchises.

The Packers defeated the Rams 32-18 to advance to the NFC championship game. When Rodgers’ Green Bay Packers (14-3) host Brady’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers (13-5) in the NFC championship game Sunday, it will be just the fourth time they’ve squared off as starting quarterbacks, and first in the playoffs. “I’m excited about the opportunity to play against him one more time.”The Bucs trounced the Packers 38-10 in Tampa on Oct. 18. A win at Lambeau Field clinches their first Super Bowl berth since their 2002 championship season. “We play the Packers in the NFC championship game.

(AP Photo/Julio Cortez)The NFL has never seen a playoff matchup quite like the upcoming one between Tom Brady’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Drew Brees’ New Orleans Saints. Brees has thrown for more yards than any QB in the regular season with 80,358 and ranks second in TD passes with 571. Brady holds the mark for touchdowns with 581 and trails only Brees in yardage with 79,204. The combined age of the starting quarterbacks will be an NFL-record 85, surpassing the 84 from their two starts in the regular season this season. The team that swept the regular season series won 14 of the previous 22 matchups, which bodes well for the Saints this week.

"I could consider it being born by the Chargers but having a renewal life with the 49ers,” Dean said in his Hall of Fame speech.

(AP Photo/Tony Avelar, File)LOS ANGELES – Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Montana and his wife confronted a home intruder who attempted to kidnap their 9-month-old grandchild over the weekend, law enforcement officials confirmed on Sunday. Montana and his wife, Jennifer, confronted the woman, whom authorities later identified as Sodsai Dalzell, tried to “de-escalate the situation” and asked her to give back their grandchild. After a tussle, law enforcement officials say Jennifer Montana pried the child out of Dalzell's arms. “Thank you to everyone who has reached out,” the former San Francisco 49ers star tweeted. Montana, 64, retired after the 1994 season, playing 13 years of his 15 year-career with the San Francisco 49ers, which won four Super Bowls with him as starting quarterback.

Mostert has remained home in Ohio ever since and is preparing for the upcoming NFL season through virtual meetings. But he knows that eventually he will return to California and begin practice with his teammates on the field. NFL training camp is scheduled to begin in late July and Mostert and his family know that he will take part when that happens. That’s something that’s going to be determined once the time comes.”When that happens, Mostert will look to build on last year’s breakthrough season. I’m just trying to get back to you know my wide receiver days when I was playing receiver in college.

FILE - In this Oct. 26, 1998, file photo, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Elvis Grbac throws against the Pittsburgh Steelers during the second quarter in Kansas City, Mo. The path from San Francisco to Kansas City is a well-traveled one for quarterbacks with four other passers besides Montana taking that route as starters. Here's a look at the QBs who have started for both San Francisco and Kansas City:STEVE DEBERGDeBerg began his NFL career with the 49ers in 1978 and was Bill Walsh's first starting quarterback in San Francisco the following year. JOE MONTANAMontana had his greatest success in San Francisco, helping establish a dynasty that won four Super Bowl titles in the 1980s. Kaepernick led San Francisco to the Super Bowl and the Niners dealt Smith to Kansas City.

I feel that the harmony that existed in the 1981 season in the front office, on the field and in the locker room is the same as this iteration." Both versions of Super Bowl-bound 49ers teams got there after long stretches of losing. They are two of the three Super Bowl teams to make it that far after losing double-digit games for three straight seasons. The 1981 team won seven in a row following a 1-2 start and this year's version started the season 8-0. "All of a sudden the San Francisco 49ers beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh and we beat them at their own game.

(CNN) - You can't knock the hustle: Jay-Z is joining the cannabis industry. Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter billionaire rapper, producer, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and Beyonc Knowles' husband will serve as the chief brand strategist for Caliva, a burgeoning California company that counts former star NFL quarterback Joe Montana as an investor. "With all the potential in the cannabis industry, Caliva's expertise and ethos makes them the best partner for this endeavor." Caliva officials and Carter could not be immediately reached for comment. Earlier this year, Caliva raised $75 million from a group of investors including Montana and former Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz.
