After the Kansas City Chiefs clinched their eighth consecutive AFC West title with a 25-17 defeat of the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 17, quarterback Patrick Mahomes was surprisingly candid about this year’s team.
Following the game, the face of the league discussed a concerted effort to play intelligent, complementary football to allow Kansas City’s top-tier defense to put them in position to win games.
Before Thursday’s practice, Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy and quarterbacks coach David Girardi spoke of the growth they have seen in Mahomes’ mindset, even in an often-frustrating season for the team’s offense.
