No. 1 seed and home field advantage throughout the playoffs, with accompanying bye week!
Patrick Mahomes, only the second dude in NFL history to tally 50 touchdown passes and 5,000 passing yards in a single season! I mean, look at that number: 50 touchdown passes in a season. I don't know if you remember but when Dan Marino got 48 in 1984, he shattered the previous record of 36 by George Blanda and Y.A. Tittle from the '60s.
Sure the rule changes over the years have made the passing game that much more pronounced, but still...
You can't deny that much of Mahomes numbers are the result of his phenomenal talent, vision, energy, hard work, and desire to win. I should add (as Mahomes always does when asked about it) that he does have some tremendous weapons at his disposal: his tight end, some fine backs, a strong core of receivers, a steady offensive line, and a head coach born to mold and shape this kind of quarterback.
I do want to write more on today's wonderful events, and continue the very simple preview posting I've been doing. But more of that tomorrow.
For now
GO CHIEFS!!!
