Patrick Mahomes' five-word vow to Josh Allen ahead of AFC Championship Game
The Mirror ^ | Jan 19, 2025 | Jeremy Goldstein

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen are set to meet in the playoffs for the fourth time in five years next week in the AFC Championship Game.

Mahomes seemingly knew this all along: after the Chiefs fell 30-21 to the Bills in Week 11, the two-time MVP told his opposing quarterback “We’ll do it again baby” when they embraced at midfield.

I ignore football all season plus the Super Bowl (which is so overwrought and commercialized) but for some reason keep a soft spot for the two games just before it.

Mahomes is deserving of every accolade, but don't want a Chiefs 3-peat.

Whatever team wins will get to visit President Trump at the White House. That, quite frankly, is way better than any ring or trophy.

I was a Washington Redskins fan, but DEI and the color-encoded CSS HTML non-RGB Washington uniform, ended that.

I admit to still being a Cleveland Indians fan.

I’m seeing many incredible funny videos and memes mocking the officials’ penalty calling anytime someone breathed on Mahomes.

Yes, he’s good. Maybe even great. But he’s not a sacred relic. It’s football, not bingo.

I defended the NFL until it became clear the NFL was fully into the woke BS, and fully supported the kneelers. I had watched NFL for nearly fifty years, and I simply don’t watch anymore.

They have made it clear to me they don’t want my patronage.

If others watch it, I don’t condemn them...that is their business and we all make choices. I watch occasionally with my best friend, but only as a way to keep in touch with him.

I simply don’t care who wins or loses and won’t patronize them with purchases of any goods or services.

Mahommes punches all the tickets in todays silliness

His flopping is without peer

But I did notice how good he was as a true frosh at TT

I just don’t like race bullshit

That’s like worrying too much about people’s political stances when one sees a good, conservative movie...or doesn’t because of the actor or actors in it.

I watch the football game. As long as during the game, really good athletes are playing the game I love, i’m good.

I wont go to the stadiums and give them that kind of money.

But I will be watching the playoffs

Mahomes is a great QB but it's becoming clear that the NFL is favoring the Chiefs due to all the "Swifties" out there and gamblers favoring the team.

So it feels scripted.

Exactly. I want a full turning of the page this year, not just in DC but in culture at large.

Yeah pretty much me too except my best friend died some years ago now and that pretty much coincided with the woke so I don’t even have that. The NFL is also just part of almost all spectator sports for me. I care for none of them anymore.

Ditto here.

The concussion awareness started my change. I haven’t watched any games in over 8 years. I keep up by reading to have something to talk about in group settings, but the amount I read is declining.

"Buffalo is going to win."

*****************************************

I thought that Buffalo would be lucky to get past Baltimore, but they did luck out (by recovering three turnovers). But the Bills match up better against KC than against Baltimore. I too think they will beat the Chiefs.

I want a 3-fer mainly so Coach Reid can retire before he has a coronary. I would love to see him beat Belichek’s win/loss record, but that would require 2 more winning seasons. His heart will blow out before he can reach Don Shula’s top spot. Don should remain #1 anyways.
