    Chiefs

    Really? Didn't know that. Care to say why. Only got in to NFL 4/5 years ago so don't know the stuff like that.

    Chiefs

    Some hatred here for the Chiefs, YLTSI and it’s understandable. Mahomes, Kelce, Reid, Taylor in the stands, greatness all round. Amazing five-year run and at 28, Mahomes has another few in him if this young defense sticks around.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 331 ✭✭Patrick Mahomes


    Chiefs

    That was an awesome game.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,205 ✭✭✭The_Honeybadger


    I don’t hate the Chiefs and can appreciate how extraordinary this run is. We are certainly witnessing greatness before our eyes.

    Chiefs

    Well done Kelce , Mahomes and Swift!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,734 ✭✭✭Bleating Lamb


    Coach beater Kelce is some gobshite…..making sure he was up on the Podium for Trophy presentation to make sure he would be interviewed.

    He had a pretty quiet game by his standards,yet hogged the limelight,whooping and hollering like the true redneck gimp that he is.

    Chiefs

    😂😂😂

    He’s a team captain and made some of the biggest plays of the game in the second half, 9 for 93 and the most receiving yards on the field. Of course he’s up there.

    He’s got you completely rattled, beautiful👌🏼



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,734 ✭✭✭Bleating Lamb


    Not a bit rattled......the red flags should be up for Taylor though.....if his temper comes out like that at an event on Worldwide TV ..........whats he like behind closed doors?

    Is a superb player but has a nasty streak in his personality......would say Ryan tore strips off him at halftime......which probably prompted his improved showing in 2nd Half.

    Made it to work ok anyway so happy days!😉

    I would hate to see what you think a good game for Kelce is. Leading receiver in a superbowl doesn't count for much apparently.


    Brilliant game to watch as a neutral. Some great defense, some great offensive plays, 2 record SB kicks and both offenses had the ball in td and win scenarios.


    Feel bad for CMC after his incredible season. Jennings was mvp for me if 49ers had sealed the deal. Mr. Irrelevant would have been an incredible story. Shanahan gains the chocker label after this, I guess a little like Reid from before. Hope he gets one too. However right now we are seeing greatness and Mahomes willing his team back into it was incredible to watch.


    A lot of QBs struggle to make it back to the big game if they don't win it the 1st time and now we have Hurts, Burrow and Purdy as excellent QBs trying to beat those odds. Will be interesting to see how it goes. I guess Jimmy is around as well in the same situation but I have less hope there.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,046 ✭✭✭Injuryprone


    He had most receptions and also most receiving yards and also most of his production was down the stretch when it mattered most........



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,896 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    The Patriots were hated long before any gate. It got bad after they went back to back.

    Brady was still young, 27 when he won his third.

    You clearly don't understand how things work. When you dominate the average sports fan wants you to lose.

    All they need is one little thing to focus on to really hate the franchise. They've got that now with Taylor Swift.

    I remember the Cowboys being hated in the early 90's. They had Emmitt Smith, Michael Irvin and Deion Sanders, three incredible players but the world found a way to hate them.

    As a Patriots fan I seen this happen. I didn't understand it because I'm not like that. I love watching greats play the game.

    The Chiefs have one of the greatest coaches in history and one of the greatest QBs. All I will do is watch in awe.

    Personally I believe that Patrick Mahomes will take the mantle of GOAT from Tom Brady.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,896 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    On Taylor Swift, she's not bigger than the NFL, she's huge in her own right, but the Chiefs and the NFL are loving it because of the exposure, new fans and the money it brings with it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,787 ✭✭✭Benimar


    I can’t explain it as a Dolphins fan, but I’ve gotten fed up of KC dominating quicker than I did the Patriots! Maybe it’s the follow on of one dynasty from another, I don’t know. Mahomes is brilliant and may one day be the GOAT, but not yet for me. I also don’t get the rush to crown him, many didn’t put Brady above Manning (never mind Joe Cool) until the Atlanta comeback. Let’s see how the rest of his career plays out.

    All I ask for next year is a non-Chiefs AFC representative (I won’t be unrealistic and hope it’s the Dolphins🤣).



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,896 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    You should sack McDaniel and hire Belichick. If you had a defense, and all the pieces are there, you'd have been in the Superbowl I think.

    There's nothing required on offense so any half decent offensive coordinator would suffice.

    Can you imagine how sick the Patriots would feel if Bill won with another AFC east franchise.

    I'm a Patriots fan but I'd love it tbh.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,787 ✭✭✭Benimar


    I'd take Belichick in a heartbeat tbh. I think most of the pieces are there. Still not sold on Tua to be honest, I think he plays well against teams we should beat, but comes up short in the tougher games. No way he was beating Mahomes and Allen in the playoffs.

    well said.

    he's the best I've ever seen play, but we'lll have to wait a while to see if he can ever realistically be the greatest.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,317 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    also, nobody has ever won a SuperBowl after taking the cap hit that they took. it's quite mental really.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,168 ✭✭✭jj880


    You see players at that kind of stuff with each other on the sidelines all the time. Doesn't mean theyre all OJ. Dont remember any warnings for all their girlfriends / wives...

    Only seeing comments like this because coach was involved and the endless nauseating fixation on Kelce and Taylor Swift.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,317 ✭✭✭✭SlickRic


    you hate it more because, basically, between the Patriots and this Chiefs dynasty, that will be two NFL dynasties that have tied a conference up for a couple of decades. that is a long time for your team to maybe not get a look-in, and since I presume you thought there'd be a break from dominance post-Brady/Bellichick, the arrival of the Chiefs is presumably pretty damn annoying.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,896 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I'd have to agree about some of the play calling on offense by the 49ers. McCaffrey was playing great and they didn't use him on three consecutive downs a couple of times. It made no sense to me. Maybe overthinking things a bit.

    And I'll criticise something in hindsight that worked out for SF. That was going for it on 4th and 3 when three points down. I thought that was stupid considering the defense they were up against.

    The missed extra point was a huge thing.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,734 ✭✭✭Bleating Lamb


    It's a whole different thing for players to gee each other up/chastise each other with a few timely belts or shoves to shouldering your Head Coach.Both commentary team and analysts for the game thought it was very bad form and a terrible look to send out to the hundreds of thousands of kids watching the game on how to disrespect your coach.Kelce lost it because he was having a very poor start to the game and was looking for someone else to blame.............as it couldn't be his fault!🙄

    Time for an anger management course methinks 😉



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,168 ✭✭✭jj880


    Agreed on the coach aspect.

    If another player did it would there have been warnings for their girlfriend / wife? I doubt it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,734 ✭✭✭Bleating Lamb


    Suppose that depends on how in trawl people are to the whole Kelce Swift subplot.

    Because that’s all it is……a subplot.

    Camera panned to her while Travis was whooping and hollering on the Presentation Podium and she didn’t seem to be impressed 🙂



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,734 ✭✭✭Bleating Lamb


    Not doubting fact he was leading receiver but we all see games differently, that’s the beauty of Sports.

    I just felt other players had a lot more influence on the game overall,like Pacheco,Mc Caffrey and the two opposing kickers who came up with amazing kicks when the chips were down.

    Both Purdy and Mahomes can be proud of their performances.Unreal game from Purdy in his first Superbowl.

    Mahomes produced when the game was on the line.A real warrior amd leader.

    💥Can’t wait for the new Season! 🏈👏👏

    People are just obsessed with her (especially my daughter!) I don’t get it and it is actually infuriating. Way too much air time
