    Mahomes needs to get rid of the ball, he's not seeing it today.

    They were lucky to get there in the first place. They sneaked so many wins this season

    yeah i am turning this off, boring game. Not a single KC player has beaten their opposite today.

    well done Philly, front office put together a hell of a roster

    There's only one offensive team in this game.

    It would take a match fixing level turnaround for Mahomes to inspire a comeback win.

    Currently 34 - 0

    I was just saying to the guy next to me earlier... "You guys haven't just broken democracy, you've somehow broken capitalism".

    Even a Tay Tay miracle won’t save KC this time.

    What a game aye!

    There's not a lot a QB can do when they are getting dominated at the line of scrimmage.

    This was the first SB in a long time when I wasn't cheering for one team over another, but it would have been nice to have seen a closer game.

    It goes to show that SBs are still won with a strong O line, dominant defence, and strong running game

    Does it? KC won the previous two with a similar set-up to the one they had this year - patchwork O-line, decent defence, no RBs or WRs to speak of, but a generational QB and TE.

    The 9ers had all those things you listed and couldn't get it done on two occasions.

    Difference here I think was Mahomes having an all-time stinker, and Philly capitalising on a few big plays better than San Francisco ever did.

    If you're Kyle Shanahan you're crying into your beer at home, thinking 'why couldn't we get THIS version of Mahomes?'

    @barbarian we weren't able to pressure Mahomes the way that Philly did. No one likes getting put on the ground that many times

    True. But it wasn't like previous Chiefs teams had a rock solid O-line.

    Mahomes was rattled in a way I'd never seen before.

    They'd squeaked their way through all season. Just got monstered by a more solid team

    They key to this game, in my eyes, was the fact the KC O-line was unable to stop 4 guys getting to Mahomes at all. They did not blitcz once and yet got like 50% pressures and 6 sacks. If you can do that with 4 guys it also means your passing lanes are clogged and Mahomes had nothing to go to. Throw in Kelce having an all-time stinker and looking very old and slow of foot, and it just fell apart.

    Fangio and that young athletic defence just dominated, and once the KC defence got tired from being on the field all day, the Eagles feasted.
