Every time I watch Patrick Mahomes play, a little voice in my head says, ‘‘Don’t forget, he could have been a Bear.’’
This is true. But the Bears chose quarterback Mitch Trubisky in the 2017 draft instead of Mahomes. It would be nice to get over this terrible fact, but it’s hard when the wildly successful Chiefs quarterback keeps getting thrown in our faces year after year.
Here comes Mahomes again, trying for what would be an unprecedented third Super Bowl championship in a row, this time against the Eagles, whom the Chiefs beat 38-35 for the title two years ago.
