Reflecting on the victory, Mahomes's teammates were effusive in their praise for the star quarterback, hailing his remarkable talent and unwavering determination.

"I guess at this point, I take it for granted, but I know we're in every single game I've ever played in with him," remarked Travis Kelce. "That guy's got magic in his right arm, man, and he can just – he found ways to propel us, even with his legs as you saw today."

With his third Super Bowl title at just under 30 years old, Mahomes has solidified his status as one of the greatest quarterbacks of his generation. And as the Chiefs celebrate their latest triumph, one thing is clear: as long as Mahomes is leading the charge, anything is possible.
