Man was it a game. When Mahomes came off the field limping I thought it was gonna be all over for the Chiefs, forgetting the wizard Andy Reid is. Like he said last year, "When things look grim, be the grim reaper" Congratulations Chiefs
Mahomes is the total package QB. I've never seen a gunslinger throw from so many angles and positions as he does. Even Favre couldn't do some of the throws we've seen from PM. And I believe PM is a better scrambler and runner than Favre was. In fact the only QB that I've seen extend plays better than Mahomes was probably Mike Vick, who had the advantage of being not just the fastest QB in the NFL but the fastest runner period.
Old guy here. It is NOT the officials job to disregard oblivious violations of the rules, so the fans can have a more entertaining game! People complain about the leagues “fixing” games. To ignore a blatant foul is just that, it’s fixing games. Get over it. The refs saw it, Mahomes pointed it out, and the DB admitted it later. People seem to forget that Brady made a career of very type of play. Throwing passes just like this to exposure defensive players who GRAB and WRAP his receivers. If you don’t want the penalty called, DOn’T commit the crime.
Kelce's spatial awareness is off the charts. It's like he has 360 degree vision. People are always like "why aren't they covering Kelce?" but they are covering him! It just doesn't matter because he senses all the defense's positions and movements using the Force or some shit, and always moves exactly to where they aren't.
He possesses that magical combination of size, agility, ball skills, and awareness that we see so rarely we all know the names, and it’s a short list. Sharpe, Gonzalez, Gates, Gronk, Hernandez. Kittle and Witten are up there. Jermichael Finley might be on that list if not for an injury.
@@Your_-Dad good call. Up there. Overall production probably suffered from lack of quality QB play & not being the centerpiece of the offense like pretty much everyone who came to mind. Definitely scratching at the top tier tho.
I think this is the super bowl which will get me into football. I never watched it much growing up, I'm from Maine so growing up it was just "oh, cool, we won again" every year for like a decade straight. But this game was nuts. Everyone talks about the hold penalty, but the only reason it mattered so much was because it was 35-35 with 2 minutes left on the clock. The play where Hurts fumbled the ball and KC swooped in and ran it in for a touchdown was one of the craziest things I've ever seen.
The Chiefs would make the playoffs every other year but were never real contenders before Reid and Mahomes got together. Mahomes is the real deal though and times have changed.
good point,a lot of people want the Superbowl to come down to just that one play but overlook the fact that Philadelphia was up by ten points at the half and allowed KC to come back, took a TD away from KC by saying a receiver never caught what was clearly a catch and Harrison Butker missed what should have been a chip shot field goal for him, Philly got outplayed in the second half of the Superbowl and lost.
For someone who’s not a football fan, it’s a bit impressive you identified the play that “lost the game” for Philly. If there was one play to blame, it was that fumble.
@@jluchette Haha, I was in a sports bar at the time and the place erupted in cries of horror (I go to school in Eagles country), so even if I couldn't have ID'd it myself, they did it for me probably.
Great video. The idea that the Eagles were robbed by a bad call is ridiculous. One it was holding - twice. Two, a spearing by Gardner-Johnson on Pacheco - clear leading with the helmet - was ignored, despite Pachecho being severely shaken up, as were many false starts on the inside of the Eagles' O-line. Three, the Eagles' defense was flat outplayed all around. They got ROLLED. Great win, great game.
Please explain the false starts by the eagles offensive live. One by one. And if its anything with Lane Johnsons cadence with the snap, that has been thouroughly debunked already. I'll tell you about an offensive tackle that was definitely getting away with murder that night. And that would be Wiley. He was MAULING Reddick, and not remotely in a legal way either lol. So let's talk about how the ref swallowed their whistles on both sides.
Great film breakdown! This second half especially was an offensive masterclass by Andy Reid, Eric Bienemy and Patrick Mahomes. They did anything they wanted and marched down the field every time they touched the ball. They gained 221 of 228 possible yards in the second half and that is AFER kneeling before the final field goal. The corn dog play at the goal line is just incredible scouting and execution and it worked to perfection twice in the fourth quarter of a Super Bowl.
People thought without Tyreek Chiefs would struggle to score. They must not know Mahomes can slice and dice you up too he's not just a deep ball passer. This dude won the Superbowl with a rookie, and TikTok boy 😄 he is worth every bit of that qrt bill.
He didn't deny the hold, just the inconsistency. But i think he misses that the standout visual nature of a jersey tug makes it much more "callable" than other infractions
@@muskyoxes If the only inconsistency is another hold on Juju that wasn't called in the first half... then it's (1) even more evidence that refs didn't help the chiefs, and (2) could have just been a missed call in the first half, as one instance is not enough to establish a trend.
I’m only commenting to say the combination of insight and knowledge and high-production value to this channel is first-rate. The tempered tone of the narrator is also unique and highly appreciated.
Good job. Smooth, easy to hear analysis. Patrick will be best when he does exactly what he’s asked to do and improvises off the cuff only when required.
.....and you've succinctly saiid something I've noticed about his play that I couldn't quite put into words. The savvy he has is chilling to watch, and I live here in Mahomesville -- beg pardon, Kansas City. LOL
It's crazy how majority of the points that he covered in this video, these teams did. The eagles dominated the first half by their dominant run game and giving Jalen Hurts time in the pocket. The eagles controlled the ball and had many methodical drives. They surprisingly gave the chiefs only eight positions. In the second half the chiefs took advantage of the gaps of the cover 6, used the mismatches in man, and used lots of motioning and RPO in the red zone. Both teams were slipping because of the horrible choice of grass but it didn't really matter in the long run. This super bowl was one of the better ones in past years.
That's all for our NFL Coverage for now, we'll be back in the summer for some rookie reports - Now it's onto Draft Season! Drop the prospects you want us to cover down below ⬇⬇⬇
Goes to show how one slip of the ball, or one unusual penalty, can make all the difference. Aside from the fumble, Hurts played near perfect football though. Gonna have a chip on his shoulder next year 💪🏼
Patrick's maturity as a QB shined, knowing that he couldn't do it all himself & learning to rely on his teamates to make plays instead of forcing it. The Chief's O-line were the MVP(s), they put on a clinic against an arguably superior opponent.
Wylie definitely had a good game. That loss to Tampa Bay, he was playing LT. He wasn't terrible at RT, earlier that year. I'm not sure Wylie holds up as well as he did on a better field. Regardless of that, he got so much help on so many plays, KC wasn't relying on him for too much, and they picked their spots. They still lined him up, 1-on-1 a fair number - a surprising number - of times, but I think that the help he got the rest of the time and the plays they called when he WAS 1-on-1, took a lot of starch out of the PHI pass rush. I wonder if they re-sign him to start at RT or if they sign him to more of a 6th-man contract. Wiley's wily. I love the idea of him as the first man off the bench at 4 of the 5 spots, although LT is a bit of a stretch. Front side with frequent chip help? Blind side? Not so much. On the officiating, they're probably right to be a bit conservative about making any changes. Including instant replay more than they do, already, could slow down the game. I think they could do it, but you have to remember that the officials don't WANT to, and they'll screw it up.
This has got to be some of the best, most competent analysis I've seen and proves that the Eagles really weren't as good as everyone says. They weren't tested and I'm sorry, their defense is not the best. Chiefs had the ball for 24 minutes compared to the Eagles 34 minutes (give or take a minute for both) and yet the Chiefs still scored 38 to their 25. That's 1.58 points per minute for the chiefs versus .97 of a point per minute for the Eagles.
I'm a huge Chiefs fan and I was not happy about the penalty. But obviously I'll take it, I truly want to see our defense stop Philly from scoring again
Toney can shine with patrick mahomes, its crazy to think what we will see from him in the future, he could be more useful for the chiefs then most think is he
Another great video. I wish my Eagles had won, and that we could've instead been watching a video of the masterful performance of Jalen Hurts. One of KC's QBs said that it was OC Bieniemy who identified Philly's vulnerability to that motion-trickery in the red zone. He correctly noted that they weren't confirming the motion before handing off their assignment. Sigh. I expected plenty of Mahomes magic, but blown assignments were an embarrassing way to lose a Super Bowl. Unless you're Brady or Mahomes, opportunities to claim a spot in history don't come along every year. It was a sad end for a special team.
Just because the Officials missed calls earlier doesn’t mean that they should have let the one at the end go to make a “better game”. Obvious hold that definitely should have been called. If it hadn’t been called, that would have changed the trajectory of the game as well. It was a great game because of the finish and the discipline of the Chiefs. The best team won a hard fought match = great game.
Ending was anticlimactic. The point is consistency. He is not saying you can't call it at the end of games. Just call it all game. It isn't the reason the Eagles lost but just changes the very feel of the game. they say you can call holding on the offensive line almost every play. Then finally throw a flag when linemen was getting away with all game. They let some physical play happen. Just a weird timing to be strict.
@@DruGOATBOY missing one singular call doesn’t mean refs are calling inconsistently. They just missed one call This stupid inconsistency narrative isn’t based in reality. Missing one call doesn’t mean they let it go all game, it just means no one had eyes on them during that missed call Huff that copium little boy
People still talking about the grab at the end as “ticky-tack”. Maybe, but I agree with Colin Cowherd’s illustration about exceeding the speed limit by 8 mph with an officer standing by. You gave the officer the option to stop you. He gambled and lost. A well coached DB never should give the ref that option. If you get beat don’t cheat. Like marvelous Marvin Hagler used to say “You have to take the fight decision out of the hands of the judges.”
I thought this superbowl separated him from Joey B and others period . I’m a life long pats fan and we sucker for years before Brady came . The only thing that will hurt the chiefs is when they can’t pay him or they want to move on especially without Andy Reid . I rooted for KC we hate Philly and I love his story and I like the kid he’s fun to watch and they counted them out so much respect

They won it cause the team that beat them in arrowhead already earlier in the year was hit harder than any other with injuries to a handful of prominent all-pro players out as the season progressed. Wasn't able to field the same team in the 2nd half of the year, which cleared the path for the Chiefs to bypass them on their way to the SB.
Great footage used at 7:06 to show how insane mahomes's arm strength really is. also, if you watch the super bowl mic'd up video you will see the def holding call was rightly called
Love the vids bro. One word of advice, you should put the play number (respective to order of the game) in a small tab when talking about each play. I want my buddies to clearly learn when I send these videos, that the motion and such plays into many different actual snaps of the ball, but sometimes they get confused. Just a idea bro but keep it up you’re insane
Hey, great game breakdown! I don't know your personal background but, you seem to really know your stuff. I really enjoy vides like this where you show how plays develop. Keep up the great work!
People complaining about the refereeing in this game can not be happy very often. One missed call (holding at midfield.) That was it. The holding call at the end (the one that upset the entire US East Coast) turned out to be correct. The ref saw it then and there, everyone else saw it when NFL Films released their footage. The pitch though, it was bad.
I disagree. On the Eagles second scoring pass the WR ran right up our CB's ass knocking him out of coverage. The CB has just as much right to the ball as the WR. It was blatant Offensive pass interference. No call.
The pitch was actually good from a knee injury prevention standpoint. Now we just need to get rid of hard exterior of rear portion of helmet and put a foam fin back there. LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of players getting quietly a concussion when the back of their helmet smashes into the turf. Happens about half a dozen to a dozen times a game.
PHILLY FAN: Great breakdown!!.. This game HURTS, (No pun intended), but you did your job, to a "T". Ganon played this game like it was just any other game, unlike the title that it deserved "The (F'ing) SUPERBOWL". I know how great Andy Reid is, but the fact that our DC wouldnt change his line of reasoning or game play, is a MAJOR fact why we couldn't win SB57. There is still more to come, just you wait. 😈😈😈
Juju made a scene after the no call on that first one. So just a crazy theory here, but maybe the refs were alerted to bad no call, and then looked for it... ya know, as to not miss another.
I know folks didn't like the field condition. But from an injury prevention standpoint, the non grip field helped prevent ACL, MCL, and ankle injuries. Andy Reid said in post game there were zero injuries ,which confirms my suspicions about the field's upside benfits. They slipped and went boom boom, but at least we didn't have a Beckham knee blow out like on the artificial turf t Sofi stadium last superbowl. Also, some players still able to cut well like Kadarius Toney.
Love the channel and the informational breakdowns, they'll be sorely missed in the off-season. As someone really looking to get into the nitty-gritty of football, which you do a great job of, I'd love to see a Basics or Concepts type video for less knowledgeable fans. Just a suggestion. :]
The field was new. They always put down a new field for Championship games. God forbid the grass doesn't look like a golf course for all the overhead TV shots. There's not enough time to root but you don't see any torn ACL's either.
The first reverse motion TC, it looked like the corner was suppose to take #1 after the motion man became #2 and the man on #2 was rolling back to be the free. Instead, they both look like they are rolling back. I would say that is a mental mistake on responsibility between one of them and overall not keeping eyes on receivers. On the second reverse motion, it looks like the defender simply looses sight of his man. The motion is part of it, but I think it was the chiefs taking advantage of poor switch communication on the side the receiver that goes in motion originally started on.
Super Bowl nerves can mess with dudes. I watched every Eagles game and these guys hardly ever had mistakes like these. Partial credit to Andy Reid but none of these plays were new looks and should not have been blown.
@@aaronbuckwalter96 for sure. Eagles have a great D and it's no criticism, imo, to have communication or technique errors. It's gonna happen. Very interesting plays to discuss.
If you watch, on most plays (I think the Poster makes a reference to it) you'll see the Chiefs use that Jet Motion on almost every play. Even if the play was a simple hand-off up the middle. They would run a WR all the way across the formation. They observed what the Eagles would do. Over and over again. The Corndog Play was an RPO (Run, Pass, Option). Mahomes looks to see if that DB continues across the Def Formation chasing the WR's motion, which the Eagles has done pretty much all game. Chiefs picked the perfect time to use that Zip Route for the TD.
I agree with the refs. The reason people say its scripted is because of the severe lack of consistency. It's to the point where I don't want to watch NFL anymore. There was a new league that just started I believe and they have a "sky judge" like you mentioned, that see's all plays replay and communicates with the ref's on open coms for all to hear. That is needed in the NFL.
If the NFL takes anything from the XFL again, please let it be the transparency for officials. Seeing and hearing confirmation on ball placement, calls being verified, quick rule discussions, and when a play is reviewed, we see what is exactly is being reviewed, why, what the specific rules are, if they can sufficiently overturn a call, or not. The other thing is the 2 min stop clock rule.
I think this is the Super Bowl to prove basically any number is possible. Mahomes is off his rookie deal which means the chiefs actually have to feel the cap hit of the their elite quarterback And when you don’t that’s the best and easiest time to win.
Great analysis, good video ... but calling that late game mahomes scramble a 3rd down play when it was obviously a 1st down scramble makes me question you lol... you knew what down it was lol, sounds doper if it was a 3rd down run tho

@@Atpost334it is moot. I can see it both ways.
@@DruGOATBOY missing one singular call doesn’t mean refs are calling inconsistently. They just missed one call
This stupid inconsistency narrative isn’t based in reality. Missing one call doesn’t mean they let it go all game, it just means no one had eyes on them during that missed call
Huff that copium little boy
@Bronze IV Mirage Main wow "little boy"!? Who hurt you? I hope you figure it out. Wish you well man.
So, in your opinion, Bradberry should’ve gotten away with two penalties, instead of just one.
Great breakdown. It looked like the Eagles had them at the start but those halftime adjustments made all the difference.
I don't even watch football but you make it so interesting! Thanks for the great content.
People still talking about the grab at the end as “ticky-tack”. Maybe, but I agree with Colin Cowherd’s illustration about exceeding the speed limit by 8 mph with an officer standing by. You gave the officer the option to stop you. He gambled and lost. A well coached DB never should give the ref that option. If you get beat don’t cheat. Like marvelous Marvin Hagler used to say “You have to take the fight decision out of the hands of the judges.”
I thought this superbowl separated him from Joey B and others period . I’m a life long pats fan and we sucker for years before Brady came . The only thing that will hurt the chiefs is when they can’t pay him or they want to move on especially without Andy Reid . I rooted for KC we hate Philly and I love his story and I like the kid he’s fun to watch and they counted them out so much respect
Love your breakdowns! Thank you!!
Love going to school with your videos. I was waiting for this one. Thank you!
What happened to all your college player breakdowns?
We didn't appreciate them enough and now they're gone...
For real I was looking forward to see the Witherspoon video this week
We got the big ol strike hammer - unfortuntely they are no longer available on youtube - but you can keep supporting the channel here - Patreon.com/ThinkingFootball
Launching that pass with a fucking humongous jordan Davis bearing on you is crazy
what a fuckin spectacular distraction this game achieves+
They won it cause the team that beat them in arrowhead already earlier in the year was hit harder than any other with injuries to a handful of prominent all-pro players out as the season progressed. Wasn't able to field the same team in the 2nd half of the year, which cleared the path for the Chiefs to bypass them on their way to the SB.
You can whine about the holding call till the end of time, but Bradberry was pulling more cloth than a lineman with a wedgie.
Great footage used at 7:06 to show how insane mahomes's arm strength really is.
also, if you watch the super bowl mic'd up video you will see the def holding call was rightly called
Great breakdown
Love the vids bro. One word of advice, you should put the play number (respective to order of the game) in a small tab when talking about each play. I want my buddies to clearly learn when I send these videos, that the motion and such plays into many different actual snaps of the ball, but sometimes they get confused. Just a idea bro but keep it up you’re insane
great channel you do an awesome job of breaking down film
great analysis! subscribed
Hey, great game breakdown! I don't know your personal background but, you seem to really know your stuff. I really enjoy vides like this where you show how plays develop. Keep up the great work!
I'ma sub for the "Pat' on his BS" line 😅🤣😂😉
Great content man, subbed and look forward to watching more of your stuff
This is great!! 🔥
People complaining about the refereeing in this game can not be happy very often. One missed call (holding at midfield.) That was it. The holding call at the end (the one that upset the entire US East Coast) turned out to be correct. The ref saw it then and there, everyone else saw it when NFL Films released their footage. The pitch though, it was bad.
I disagree. On the Eagles second scoring pass the WR ran right up our CB's ass knocking him out of coverage. The CB has just as much right to the ball as the WR. It was blatant Offensive pass interference. No call.
They were no-calling Philadelphia's delays of game all game, too.
The pitch was actually good from a knee injury prevention standpoint. Now we just need to get rid of hard exterior of rear portion of helmet and put a foam fin back there. LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of players getting quietly a concussion when the back of their helmet smashes into the turf. Happens about half a dozen to a dozen times a game.
Awesome videos as usual!!! Can’t wait for draft stuff
PHILLY FAN: Great breakdown!!.. This game HURTS, (No pun intended), but you did your job, to a "T". Ganon played this game like it was just any other game, unlike the title that it deserved "The (F'ing) SUPERBOWL". I know how great Andy Reid is, but the fact that our DC wouldnt change his line of reasoning or game play, is a MAJOR fact why we couldn't win SB57. There is still more to come, just you wait. 😈😈😈
Juju made a scene after the no call on that first one.
So just a crazy theory here, but maybe the refs were alerted to bad no call, and then looked for it... ya know, as to not miss another.
except it took all game? no just luck of the draw as a lot of calls were not made
I know folks didn't like the field condition. But from an injury prevention standpoint, the non grip field helped prevent ACL, MCL, and ankle injuries. Andy Reid said in post game there were zero injuries ,which confirms my suspicions about the field's upside benfits. They slipped and went boom boom, but at least we didn't have a Beckham knee blow out like on the artificial turf t Sofi stadium last superbowl. Also, some players still able to cut well like Kadarius Toney.
Or just lucky. Remember Butker suffered a high ankle sprain and missed a month earlier from a slip kicking off on this field.
It seemed to me when I was watching the game, the Eagles had more difficulty with the turf, but I'm not sure. Still it was a great game to watch.
Andy Reid put together a masterclass 2nd half game plan.
Some argue the call was ticky tacky. The Dee Ford call was just as ticky tacky, but correct.
2:20 minor correction, it was actually OC Eric Bienemy who realized the Eagles D was prone to falling for this move
Otherwise, excellent video!
Love the channel and the informational breakdowns, they'll be sorely missed in the off-season. As someone really looking to get into the nitty-gritty of football, which you do a great job of, I'd love to see a Basics or Concepts type video for less knowledgeable fans. Just a suggestion. :]
Got a tonne of draft breakdowns coming between now and the draft so keep your eyes peeled!
@@ThinkingFootball DEFINITELY!!!!
"The team that scores the most points will come out at the winner of this one!" - Cris Collinsworth somewhere.
The field was new. They always put down a new field for Championship games. God forbid the grass doesn't look like a golf course for all the overhead TV shots. There's not enough time to root but you don't see any torn ACL's either.
But they should, like, know how to do that. It's been a long time and a ton of money.
Fuck man. This was a master class of Football and I went on a date instead.
Truly kicking myself for not watching it. Damn.
I gather your date was a bust ?
Best so far in commenting on the game
Best team in football led by the Best QB of All time
2:05 how about the DE laying out his own DT
The patriots did the same thing with the Edlman n Annadola play ran it there times for 2 touchdowns one for Edelman n 1 dola
He can't get concussions or ankle injuries every season.
If Mahomes can have 3 or 4 year stretches of no injuries, he could catch Brady...
before ya call it tickytacky look at the reverse angle shot and its a clear hold not at all tickytacky...
THANK YOU FOR POINTING OUT THAT CLEAR HOLD IN THE FIRST HALF! 🤣 I believe they called the hold at the end to make up for that miss. 😋
Subscribed. Thanks.
The first reverse motion TC, it looked like the corner was suppose to take #1 after the motion man became #2 and the man on #2 was rolling back to be the free. Instead, they both look like they are rolling back. I would say that is a mental mistake on responsibility between one of them and overall not keeping eyes on receivers.
On the second reverse motion, it looks like the defender simply looses sight of his man. The motion is part of it, but I think it was the chiefs taking advantage of poor switch communication on the side the receiver that goes in motion originally started on.
Super Bowl nerves can mess with dudes. I watched every Eagles game and these guys hardly ever had mistakes like these. Partial credit to Andy Reid but none of these plays were new looks and should not have been blown.
@@aaronbuckwalter96 for sure. Eagles have a great D and it's no criticism, imo, to have communication or technique errors. It's gonna happen. Very interesting plays to discuss.
If you watch, on most plays (I think the Poster makes a reference to it) you'll see the Chiefs use that Jet Motion on almost every play. Even if the play was a simple hand-off up the middle. They would run a WR all the way across the formation. They observed what the Eagles would do. Over and over again.
The Corndog Play was an RPO (Run, Pass, Option). Mahomes looks to see if that DB continues across the Def Formation chasing the WR's motion, which the Eagles has done pretty much all game. Chiefs picked the perfect time to use that Zip Route for the TD.
@@marvinmange4805 yes. That's a good analysis. Reid really sets up things well and runs stuff off all the stuff they do.
Ty for explaining the Toney td and sweep for Pacheko. I was trying to figure out how they pulled those off
This is 10 times better than baldy breakdowns
"Usual Mahomes nonsense." I love it. 🤣
Lmao I loved hearing the thorough analysis in this video moving into “Patrick Mahomes was on his usual bullshit”
He's a fucking magician
They should make it a prio to keep that line intact
I agree with the refs. The reason people say its scripted is because of the severe lack of consistency. It's to the point where I don't want to watch NFL anymore. There was a new league that just started I believe and they have a "sky judge" like you mentioned, that see's all plays replay and communicates with the ref's on open coms for all to hear. That is needed in the NFL.
If the NFL takes anything from the XFL again, please let it be the transparency for officials. Seeing and hearing confirmation on ball placement, calls being verified, quick rule discussions, and when a play is reviewed, we see what is exactly is being reviewed, why, what the specific rules are, if they can sufficiently overturn a call, or not.
The other thing is the 2 min stop clock rule.
Andy Reid’s Magnum Opus
Ahhh..you said it. Andy Reid knows their tendencies. The mad scientist knew what to do against his old team. It was the Reid bowl.
I think this is the Super Bowl to prove basically any number is possible.
Mahomes is off his rookie deal which means the chiefs actually have to feel the cap hit of the their elite quarterback
And when you don’t that’s the best and easiest time to win.
"This grass has been prepared for over 2 years. State of the art stuff for the SB"
*Players immediately slip the whole game*
Great analysis, good video ... but calling that late game mahomes scramble a 3rd down play when it was obviously a 1st down scramble makes me question you lol... you knew what down it was lol, sounds doper if it was a 3rd down run tho
hey this is still the best guy doing analysis..Cut some slack
Just so you know, that was Bieniemy who found that wrinkle at the goalline. Make sure you give EB some credit
