He was the QB of the winning team. That’s how it goes.
Just like when Brady won in XLIX, when Butler made that pick in the end zone.
let’s have ourselves an offseason folks
If Dan Campbell is the coach of the Chiefs, there’s a good chance they don’t win this game. He probably goes for it on 4th and 1/2 at the end of the first half, and he also probably goes for it in the 3rd, instead of kicking the FG to make it 10-6.
Then again, maybe they win in regulation…..It’s a perfect example of analytics vs in-game management.

I don't know who else it would be. Hardman? The punter? They usually default to the QB in all contested cases.
I really wish the lions made it. I would've been way more invested. Kyle Shanahan should've learned from Campbell and gone for it on 4th and goal. Just go for the win there, worst case is a turnover on downs at the 10. Either way you're probably not stopping Mahomes, so don't even let the ball get in his hands and if you have to lose, go down swinging.
It's ironic, Detroit lost the NFCCG being too aggressive, SF lost the Superbowl being too cowardly conservative. Football is a fickle mistress.

Just a little over 2 months til we find out if Belichick still has a grasp on the minds of coaches and personel of the Patriots and drafting. Though, more importantly, the summer breakup story begins. A new era has unfolded. This Taylor Swift story has just begun. Can't wait to hear the song about it.
For the first time in my life, I won money picking squares.
$500.
So, at least I can be happy about that.
To be honest, I was thoroughly entertained, and although I might have preferred the 49ers win, it was a good game.
We’re on to 2024.

333 passing yds
66 rushing yds to lead team
2 passing tds
Against one of if not the best defenses in the league.
Is that not MVP worthy?

No, but I’m admittedly bias. I’m what the kids call a Mahomes “hater”. Super skilled kid I just don’t like him for some reason

Fraud fraud fraud
I'm also not convinced he actually knew the updated OT rule. His players sure didn't.
One play from Butler is great but two 4th Q touchdown drives against legion of boom, Brady was deserving of MVP.

Brady's 4th quarter against Seattle is the greatest quarter of football a quarterback has ever had.

I’d rather be 4-13 than lose in SB
I’d rather have lost to Columbus in 2019 round 2 then lose to Blues in Finals

He was MVP - fantastic game
The guy is one of the few who ever scared me as a Patriots fan
Vintage Peyton Manning
Patrick Mahomes
That’s about it
Agree - this game was Ali vs Frazier
Two all time teams going head to head
Best quarter I’ve ever seen against an elite defense

Mahomes is the perfect athlete for football. He can read defenses and throw like an all-pro pocket passer and he can run on scrambles and designed plays like a top tier running QB. It's incredibly difficult to defend him. He doesn't have a weak point to focus on to contain him like run-first QBs like Lamar or pocket QBs like Stafford.
Brady is overall the greatest at his craft, but the only QB who has ever come close to Mahomes' all-around skill set was Steve Young (and Young didn't even get a real chance in the league until he was 31 when his best running days were behind him).

He had 333 yards passing and 66 rushing yards, only QB in history to have 325+ yards passing and 60 yards + rushing in the SB
Not a bad day at the office

Niners handed both of KCs superbowls to them, in addition to their gifts to Baltimore and the Giants NFC championship. This team just knows how to choke
I’ll never forgive them for losing the 2011 NFC Championship game to the Giants.

Meh. He’s hands down the best QB in the league but he wasn’t great in the game. I saw it more as Niners D breaking down in the 4th. I guess someone has to take home MVP

Both times the Giants made the Superbowl it was because their NFCCG opponent did something stupid.
Patriots would've absolutely murdered Green Bay in 07, it would've been the perfect cap off to the perfect season. Revenge against the Pack for 97, and going through the best the NFC had to offer that year. But dipshit Favre decides to throw a bunch of unforced interceptions in the 4th and OT to let the Giants get in as the worst possible matchup. 4 years later SF fumbles a punt in OT which puts the Giants in it again. That would've been a tough matchup too but I think Bill could've shut down Alex Smith without too much of an issue.
Latest mock draft I saw, has the Patriots taking Drake Maye at # 3 and Keon Coleman at #34, I would be very happy with that.
I could live with that, but the more I think about it, the more I like Jayden Daniels.
I looked up Coleman. I’ve never seen him play, but the numbers look good.

Coleman was driving the Florida State offense as much as Travis was last year.
Big and fast guy (6'4 215) who excels at making plays in traffic, but has some issues with consistency. He's not a cant miss guy, but definitely someone to spend a 2nd on.
