Brady and co did it.
People are going to underestimate and overestimate the impact of Brady for a very long time. They are going to talk about athleticism and how much of a warrior Mahomes was. They are going to sing his praises for throwing absolute DOTS in a loosing effort while Brady continued to miss receivers on the wya to a big win. In reality what they are talking about is a field general who knows how to run the team and get the most out of everyone and a superstar athlete who knows how to ball out. Mahomes is the show–that is not a question. Brady is the showrunner. You cannot stop the scheme he runs. The Chiefs could not do it. On the other hand, Mahomes could be stopped–mainly by taking away Tyreek and forcing Mahomes to use other WRs to extend the play. At that point the win was inevitable.
So, what now? I suspect these two teams will get back to the playoffs and possibly to the show–so long as Tampa can afford to keep all these pieces. If not, it is going to be Mahomes for the win.
