LAS VEGAS — With the thinnest supporting cast he has ever had on offense, in what has been least impressive season of his career, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was still great enough to stand atop the NFL.
Again.
Mahomes overcame the many deficiencies around him to beat the 49ers 25-21 in overtime in Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday at Allegiant Stadium. It’s his third championship, making him one of just five quarterbacks in NFL history to do that.
He gutted out a game in which the Chiefs struggled throughout to lead them to a game-tying field goal with three seconds left in the fourth quarter and lift them to victory on their first possession of overtime.
