The Kansas City Chiefs did Sunday in the Super Bowl what they’d done in the playoffs on the way there – they staged another incredible comeback to win, beating the San Francisco 49ers, 31-20, in Super Bowl 54.
The Chiefs were led by 24-year-old quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who was named Super Bowl MVP. Kansas City was down 20-10 before Mahomes turned it on in the fourth quarter, leading the Chiefs to three touchdowns in the last seven minutes of the game.
First, Mahomes hit tight end Travis Kelce for a one-year touchdown pass. Then Mahomes found running back Damien Williams for a five-yard touchdown toss. And finally, Williams scored on a 38-yard run with just over a minute to go to clinch it for K.C.(Los Angeles Times)
Hot Takes:
- This year the Super Bowl actually lived up to the hype.
- The Chiefs are going to be contenders for years to come with Mahomes as quarterback.
- Going into Sunday’s game, Chiefs veteran coach Andy Reid had more career wins than any other coach who hadn’t won a Super Bowl.
