Patrick Mahomes celebrates Super Bowl victory
Patrick Mahomes has a lot to celebrate this week, and he seemed pumped about the future on Wednesday at the Super Bowl parade.
The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback had an incredible week. After winning the NFL MVP award for the 2022 season, Mahomes led the Chiefs to a comeback win in the Super Bowl a few days later.
Mahomes did it all through injury, playing through a high-ankle sprain since the first half of the Chiefs’ divisional-round win against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He then aggravated the injury against the Philadelphia Eagles in the first half of the Super Bowl. Down 10 points at the half, he and the Chiefs rallied to win 38-35.
Mahomes doesn’t think the Chiefs are done competing for championships. According to Pete Sweeney with Arrowhead Pride, Mahomes said at the Super Bowl parade that the Chiefs still want more.
“I just want to let y’all know that this is just the beginning. We ain’t done yet,” Mahomes said.
After the way Kansas City played after Tyreek Hill left last offseason, Mahomes is probably right. One wonders what the offense would have looked like healthy in the playoffs. Scary stuff.
