Everyone focuses on the marquee names like Mahomes and Kelce, but man, that Chiefs defense was the real MVP.

[adensmith]

All this Mahomes and purdy talk. This was a great defensive game. The defensive units should get some shine for a great super bowl.

[Simouno]

Andy Reid - Mahomes is the Phil Jackson - MJ of this generation. No matter the circumstances, they will always find a way to win because they thrive in overcoming adversities. Hats off from a Niners fan

[rantman]

That final drive was nothing less than Masterful.

[dfp_]

Unironically one of the best Super Bowls in my lifetime. Nice balance between defense in the beginning and offense towards the end, pretty good overall officiating, and my favorite team won as the cherry on top.

Fun fact: Patrick Mahomes averaged more yards per rushing attempt than per pass attempt in this game (7.3 vs. 7.2). A lot of that running came as he was slicing right through the Niners' D in the 4th and OT to help seal his MVP case.

Andy Reid is the best coach in the NFL… No panic. Makes adjustments. Players respond… RINGS.

[MColonna]

I think Coach Cowher said it best after the game, “the 49ers didn’t lose the game, Mahomes won it” . I personally can’t stand the Chiefs but I gotta respect them. They won that game fair and square. Congrats on going back-to-back

SF had to pull away early. They completely shut down KC in the 1st half. To leave it so close u knew it would bite them.

[Christopher-zirq]

Most shocking thing for me was the 49ers final regulation drive when they took the lead. They have all the tools needed to drain the clock and KC's defense was exhausted! They chose not to dribble the ball down the field and attempt a game winning field goal. Yes, they needed to score, but with that many weapons on offense I was surprised. You can't leave that much time on the clock against a Mahomes offense. That is when I new Andy Reid would once again, "Mahomes" the 49ers.

[quantamgiant]

As a niner fan, i am heartbroken but i have to give it up to mahomes for that game winning drive. Mahomes is really this generations brady. He is so clutch. I can live with this loss. But damn it hurts.

[SladeBling]

I think the best thing SF did all day was containing Pacheco. He never got more than 10 yards..but then again McCaffrey never got more than 11 yards. It was a GREAT Super Bowl!

[samsoph]

Can't believe you have not mentioned Sneed in this video. Dude was taken in the 4th round. McDuffie/Sneed are the best CB combo in the NFL.

[samwatkins]

Seeing christian mccaffrey gasping for air on the sidelines late in ot during the 49ers drive.. that dude is a baller

[BallaMatt]

Quarterbacks are so important. This is why you do anything to find a Legendary one. You can have Hofers at every position but if you don’t have a qb nothing else matters. Mahomes is so special.

[Perkuhlerk]

Wish I’d of seen more of the Chiefs D on post game interviews. I love Mahomes but the KC D is the real MVP of the SB AND kept em in it the rest of the season. Good shit boys.

[rickfowler]

All I took from this and the Super Bowl is - You don’t have Mahomes.

[RJ-qsnm]

Never bet against the d coordinator who shut brady down in an undefeated season

[bookswithbenjamin]

John cutting off Colin to defend Purdy 😂 we've come full circle

[uknownutin]

Thanks for a great season boys. Been an incredible listen.

[nickbarcheck]

I have no idea how I'm gonna spend the next 6 months of Sundays now. Football is king. Thanks for another great season.
