So I discussed with my better half. Will the Chiefs win another Super Bowl in the next few years? Yes. Will it be as awesome as THIS one? No. This is something we have all waited for so long that any other victory will be icing on the cake! This ONE means the MOST! [Reply]

People say Mahomes played badly but basically 4 drives in the first half 1 was a 3 and out, 2 were scoring drives and 1 stalled at midfield.
Mahomes then (due to the half time show and 49ERS drives) went roughly 57 minutes before he touched the ball again. Not making excuses but could explain why he was a little off after half time.
I wonder how many similar situations have happened in previous superbowls. [Reply]

He played 'badly' for himself. Against his career, short as it's been. If anyone else not named Aaron Rodgers or Russell Wilson had been the QB, the pundits would've said he was playing fine or good.
The two INTs weren't good, and that's what most people think of right off the bat, but outside of that, Mahomes played just fine.
And the first INT he admitted he tried to move the LB by drifting to his right, but the pass rush forced him to stop moving to his right, and he had to get rid of the ball earlier than he wanted. The 2nd INT was really his worst pass. He just threw it behind Tyreek, period.
Bottom line, for Mahomes stratospheric average level of play, he didn't have a good game. For just about anyone else, he was better than average. [Reply]

The Athletic was teasing an article yesterday that basically said that Mahomes bad game wasn't really a bad game at all. I was tempted to subscribe just to read that article [Reply]

^this^
It was sold out and was one of the reason tix were so high. Limited capacity. [Reply]

I might do that as well.
It's funny that people want to jump on the "Pat had a bad game" thing. As if he wasn't playing in the SB against the 1st or 2nd best defense in the league. A defense that had very few flaws. It would've been more shocking to me if he didn't struggle a little. When the best offense runs into the best defense it's supposed to be tough sledding. Pat wasn't playing against Ball State after all. [Reply]
