This Super Bowl was the sweetest for a number of reasons. First, if you are a long time fan you grew up on dominant defenses trying to carry the team. This brought back some nice memories of shutdown corners, LB's flying around and a pass rush that could show up in crunch time. The Chiefs defense this year, IMHbiasedO, was as good as any D in the last 25 years. With Mahomes on the other side of the ball, they will never get the full credit they deserve, but man they were a thing of beauty to watch this year.

Second, it was fun to watch the next man up actually step up. You had "backup" guys like Tranquil, Pennel, Allegretti, Morris, Edwards, Chenal make big plays in the regular season and playoffs. That's a testament to coaching and drafting. KC didn't miss a step this year due to injuries. There is also a nice dose of redemption for MVS and Hardman to shrug off fumbles and dropped balls, only to be Super Bowl heroes a few weeks later.

Third, it was the most flawed team that had to take the hardest path to the championship. Miami's high flying offense, the hottest team in the NFL the Bills, the #1 team in the NFL and the #1 team in the NFC. 3 times a dog. It was nice to prove all the pundits wrong. Remember, never bet against Mahomes and Kelce.
