get the idea of running these guys kind of like into a stack
because it looked like that and then just turn it around. Yeah.
Well,
you know, Canary has
done a nice job with Annie,
we bring him in, it's a run play
that has an option
to throw
and so, so here's Patrick and here's McKinnon.
So it's a run. Play
Works towards the middle of the field. And then
he comes in motion before that
gets himself inside this corner deli himself over the top. Yeah
allowed him that was a steal a
just God allowed him to work
fast of a flat
kind of had a similar one was sky. On the other side it was
almost to duplicate out differently. But yeah,
but this one comes in as a
run play that
has a pass option. On
Pat, read it out perfectly. Why do you think Patrick chose
the pass on this?
The run I saw with the corner. It's obviously,
it's laser sharp do. So in other words, as soon as could
Darius, Tony runs in and then comes back. So you know,
there is comes inside. He's thinking, that is a possible
quick screen duck in, right? And score. And so,
right when he cleared kills,
it was over, he was too far inside. Kelce workup
is Tony naturally. Definitely going to come back every time
every time. That's just password. I'll give you a name.
Yeah yeah
it's called what the corn dog? It's not cold corn dog. Is it
called horndog? Another better than
corn dogs
that are great. The moment that we corn dog mustard. Ketchup
out corn dog. Yeah. Not cornhole corndog corndog. Well
it makes sense the Chiefs Got that mustard and ketchup color.
That's a good play to,
you know, when the Super Bowl was right there a little corn dog.
I'm sure that's a that's the greatness of Andy Reid and be
enemy is too. They named these plays where. Yeah they stick in
guys heads they probably got a little rhyme and reason and
funny story behind it
and that's what makes you able to learn it and digest. It
better as well but just part of the great game planning their
of the Chiefs. And then of course, the quarterback himself
understanding what the defense was. Doing and taking advantage
of that,
didn't they do the modified snow globe? At one point to
I did on the drive, they did have yard line on second down. They
did it all happened so fast and you know the problem when
you're in the Press Box and this is the ultimate first
world problem.
The game is happening
in front of you,
but they got monitors everywhere. They give you
a much better view of the action, but it's like a half second
behind what's happening on the field, so sometimes I get
caught between watch.
Here looking down and I missed the
snow globe thing. I was upset that I missed it. I kept
waiting for the behind the back pass to Pat Mahomes has
promised yet again this past week, but coming at some point,
we'll have to wait until the 2023 sees. Yeah, you know,
Mike,
it's I'm sure it's coming, it'll be coming to a theater
near you, you know. Now he's got two Super Bowls in his
pocket to will be even more Brave than ever before. But
like
this is,
hey, this is why this guy is officially in the upper room of
the house. Hall of Fame. Now
just Andy reading them. The situational moments for
the most part they want in this game,
you know, just like they did against the 49ers
and that's Super Bowl
where
the third and fourth and shorts and all of that or the big
moments and got to have it, they had the right place tiles
up and they did that in their first Super Bowl victory with
a lot of creative plays and movements and things we saw.
If you remember back to the The time.
So the extra week
Andy Reid, again just shows that his ability to Tinker and
toy with things as good as anybody we've ever seen in
the history of football.
And it's amazing grand scheme of things.
How little time we've had to appreciate Patrick Mahomes,
when I'm at the Super Bowl. I think back to past Super Bowls
and reminiscing about Super Bowl. 50 won the 2:32 game, the
one that gave Tom. Brady, number five, putting in past
Joe, Montana
moms having been, drafted, yet
hadn't even been picked yet.
Ma still just fresh out of Texas Tech and nobody really
knew what he was going to be right. Had never put on an NFL
Hama, we didn't know he was gonna play for and leading up
to that draft. Remember the saints were going to take him
at 11:00
until the Chiefs traded up to 10 to get him.
What an order universe. That is where Patrick Mahomes goes to
the Saints, I think Sean Payton still be coaching the Saints,
right? Yeah. You think that? Yeah, I think so. I would say
so,
I again, as we talked about last week to start the week
off,
I I don't think people are making a big enough deal about
what we're seeing.
We're seeing a guy do something in the first five years of his
career, six years because he didn't play his first year that
we've seen guys. They don't accomplish this, the all-time
great Stone accomplishes to your 9 or 10 or 11 or 12.
I mean, this is your five as a starter,
it's three Super Bowls, it's two victories,
it's two victories against Teams that were all time
defensives
like where you went damn
Mahomes. He's gotta play two teams that are better than them
and you know the Super Bowls oh wait they won two out of three
of those. Holy crap, the weight, one of them
he's not going to be 100% And he's going to be playing on like a
8590 percent leg.
I just I can't say enough about the guy
let alone. Like we've talked about Mike
everything is always been around him. It wasn't like
Right. We're gonna play defense and run the ball and we'll
slowly indoctrinate you into the NFL. It was like, hey,
you're our starter, hey 5,000 yards, 50 touchdowns, we're
going to throw the ball and
divides an offense. We've never seen before in the history of
football, right off the bat and just ride your shoulders. It's
is
remarkable. What we're seeing.
He's on a trajectory right now
to be the greatest quarterback of all time,
right there, with Brady, as far as accomplishments and of
course has talents greater than Brady. So that's where this is.
Thing? What we're seeing at a 15 in Kansas City.
I remember last Monday, we showed the pat Mahomes
highlight reel for 2022.
It was exhausting it was better than the career highlight reels
for most quarterbacks from one sees. Yes. And Chris
think about this
It, you could make the argument that they've underachieved,
they've had five straight AFC championship games at home.
They've got a sixty percent success rate
getting to the Super Bowl
from playing those championship games at home
and a 40% success rate winning the Super Bowl with five
straight years of AFC championship games at home. And
I haven't said this in a while,
but
it could have been six straight AFC. A championship games at
home that offense in 2017. His rookie year was sluggish,
Midway through the season and somebody on this show
was saying, why don't you bench Alex Smith for Patrick Mahomes?
Travis Kelce was on this show, at one point saying
Mahomes is doing amazing things in practice. And I remember
that preseason game against the Titans from 2017, where he
rolls to the right, he throws a laser gets hit in the face and
it's like
this guy's got something. Yeah, right and credit the and Read.
Yeah, for seeing it. Through with Alex Smith, he was
committed to keeping Pat Mahomes on the bench for a full
season. He
played in that week, 17 game,
that was meaningless. It was a game against the Broncos, but
who knows what would have happened? If all of a sudden,
this Mahomes magic starts to unfold on football fields
toward the end of a season where nobody's ready for it. It
just kind of explodes out of nowhere. Can you imagine what
that would have been like if you throw that on top of it? So
to your point, he's got six seasons in the NFL has only
been playing for five years. Yes. And he's got two Super
Bowl MVPs. He's ahead of everybody and you're right. You
know, I tweeted last night,
the The Twist on the line meet the new boss. Same as the old
boss. I said meet the new goat better than the old goat and
people lost their s*** because they think I'm saying he's
better than Brady
at his best and what we've seen over the first five years of
his career he's better than Brady ever. Was the question
now is how many more of these Rings really a mass, right? But
if you give me the choice
at his best. Yes. Pat Mahomes versus Tom Brady at their best?
Hey I'm not Hesitating nobody is. I'm taking Patrick my home
right? I mean I don't I don't know doubt again you know
that's where it's accomplishments and the player
a different things.
You know we've got in the era of like team accomplishments.
We only give to one guy and I get it and Brady is amazing
but yeah he's not
we're talking we're talking about one of the greatest
talents we've ever seen in the sport. It's
one of the greatest arms ever.
It's one of the greatest
you know, Artistry as far.
As you know, the way he does it as far as the arm angles off
his back foot across the field.
He's one of the greatest scramblers we've ever seen in
the history of this board. He's one of the greatest Runners at
quarterback and the history of the sport.
His he probably had the two biggest runs last night you
know I know one guy had the three rushing touchdowns but
two of them were scrums where I feel like you know yeah you
could give
you and me the ball and they were just going to push us in
so he's he's amazing. He's a
Generational all time Talent like
and your mic and, you know,
hey yeah that first year you're right, he sat out but I'm that
kind of guy. Well damn, who knows what he would have done.
If he got the play,
he's scary, scary good.
What he accomplished this year
right? I mean one second, Super Bowl three out of four years
being there, you know, two wins and four years of the Super
Bowl.
You know, the nine year, drought of the team that won
the coin toss loses a superb.
All he snapped that, do the Madden Madden, pick the Eagles,
the win, he beat that. And then you go down the list of things
that are accomplished career. Like in the pantheon of
quarterbacks, he did them all in one season.
This is arguably
one of the greatest seasons in the history of football by
a player. He led the league in passing yards,
passing touchdowns
he won the regular season MVP,
he won the Super Bowl. MVP and won the Super Bowl. No,
like something. Those are all like everybody else. Did those
in career type of things. He did them in one season,
it's remarkable.
Eddie generated the most yards ever, by any player. Exactly
sees. There we go. Icing and Rushing look,
I read most of the
Joe Montana article from right Thompson over the weekend. Yeah,
there's a point where
after Brady went Super Bowl, 50 got booed
understandably, because the Broncos were one of the teams.
There's like Dak Prescott, getting booed last? I know.
That was. How horrible is that?
Yeah, Joe. Montana got cheered
and a month later, Julian Edelman was at Brady's place
and they were working out and he just had Houston written on
the board was Houston. Well, that's where the next Super
Bowl is
and Edelman says, we're going to get you past Montana.
And Brady said, I'm not chasing Montana. I'm chasing Jordan.
I want seven. And I mentioned Jordan, because
Mahomes is the Michael Jordan? Yeah, he's the Jordan right.
Mahomes Mahomes is the guy who's changing the way that we
take in the game. Exactly.
The way, the quarterback plays right changing the way that
kids play in their backyards. We've talked about that in
the past, all the all everybody's trying to do the side arm past
and the no look pass and all this other stuff.
And Chris,
Michael, Jordan didn't win a championship toes, eighth
season. Yeah.
Holmes has to and he's got two more years to go before it gets
to a time to this guy's going to.
Well, I know a lots. Got to follow your way
but he, as I mentioned last night, just like Lieutenant
Colonel Frank Slade in Scent of a Woman. He's just getting
warmed up. Oh, you're my cure
agreed. That everything you said, there he is. The Jordan.
I've always looked at Brady is more than Derek Jeter, right?
Like really good ice in his veins and clutch moments.
This is the guy who can be like, no,
No, jump on my back, I'll carry us. It doesn't matter.
That's what we're seeing here
with Patrick.
