The young Chiefs star who’s already been likened to the all-time greats rebounded from a nightmarish opening to make the plays when they mattered most
For three-and-a-half quarters, we waited for a ‘Mahoment’. It seemed as though we would be waiting in vain. Super Bowl LIV was meant to belong to Patrick Mahomes, the 24-year-old quarterback with a rocket launcher for an arm and a league MVP award already in his locker. Instead it was passing him by.
With just under 12 minutes remaining in the game, and his team trailing 20-10, Mahomes threw his second interception. It was a bad throw, intended for Tyreek Hill on a crossing route but arriving behind the receiver, who bobbled it into the hands of San Francisco’s Tarvarius Moore. At that point, Mahomes had completed 18 of 29 passes for 172 yards and no touchdowns.
