Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes Reacts to Super Bowl LIX Loss

Mahomes like he was against Tampa Bay, was scrambling for his life as the Eagles front four terrorized him all night long. The Chiefs offensive line provided no support and after both losses, Andy Reid and staff are going to have to answer some tough questions regarding their tackle positions.

Mahomes himself played poorly. To his credit, Mahomes did more than any man in his position could have done. However, by mirroring the same superman efforts he did against Tampa Bay, it was clear that the Chiefs would need a series of unexpected events to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

Mahomes took responsibility for this loss, stating his three turnovers, including a pick-six by Cooper DeJean and an interception by Zach Baun that set up an AJ Brown touchdown on the very next play, were the reasons he was taking such ownership according to Adam Teicher.

Mahomes can put the blame on himself all he wants but the truth is that no matter what he did, this game was decided long before the first whistle. The Eagles has the superior roster, better depth and better strike capabilities.

Even if Mahomes did not throw those interceptions, the Chiefs need to stack the box in order to stop Saquon Barkley gave Jalen Hurts options downfield and he was picking correct targets left and right. AJ Brown came to play, so did DeVonta Smith. In his first big moment as an Eagle, Jahan Dotson was running past defenders left and right.

If Kansas City wants Mahomes on top of the podium again, they must overhaul their roster.
