It's finally sinking in....Most Spectacular Playoff Run In History

[petegz28]

Now that all the adrenaline and anxiety and disbelief have worn off it is finally sinking in that we actually won the Super Bowl. But we didn't just win the Super Bowl. This has to be one of the most exciting wins in Super Bowl history.

I would love to have seen us boat race these ****ers and I think we could have. But for whatever reason we didn't. Credit the SF defense and what not. The way we had to win will forever make this just that much more special.

All season long we heard about how Lamar Jackson and DeShaun Watson would "will their team to win". I won't say it was just Patrick but mother ****er, if we didn't have this kid you have to think the rest of the team doesn't take it that 1/2 notch extra.

The surprising part of this season is we found our Mahomes on the defensive side of the ball in the Honey Badger.

This team is ****ing special. You just don't do what we did. It just doesn't happen which is why it has never happened, EVER!

IT'S OURS! WE OWN THE MOST SPECTACULAR PLAYOFF RUN IN THE HISTORY OF FOOTBALL, BITCH!

Glad to see you wake up and sniff the roses, Pete!!!

Its never happened, so there's your position of authority.

Generally, the competition level in the playoffs is such that if you go down doube digits, your chance to win the game is pretty damn low.

Like 96% chance to lose down 10 on 3rd n 15 low. 4% chance to win that game. They did.

Best postseason run ever.

if you only look at "comebacks" , OK.



But I'm not personally convinced that would be the "best run" ever...It sort of depends on how you define best run...To me , it doesn't only mean coming back...there are some other factors that have to be considered. For example: what about a team that just utterly destroyed the other teams without ever being behind? Isn't that "better" than being behind and needing a come back? What about shutting opponents out? etc...Again, for the illiterate among us (not you) - I'm not saying this isn't the best run ONLY because I don't have time to study this right now...I'm saying that JUST the comebacks isn't enough for me to just declare this the best run without at least looking at some of the other great runs in history..looking at teams that destroyed opponents, looking at defenses that shut people out...looking at teams that had to play away games, and play an extra game, looking at teams who had to play higher seeds.......etc etc..... I don't think you can have the authority you need without at least examining the other top 5 greatest playoff runs in history....other wise its just homer talk IMO. I'll let Lil Chiefys do the homer talk. When I get a chance to really look at other playoff runs of history I'll state my opinion on this.

I’m ecstatic I’ll be able to relive the Houston, Tennessee, and San Francisco playoff games and know EXACTLY how I felt at the time of each highlight knowing everything ends for the better.

Hell, I’m going to be so fluent in Super Bowl 54 that I’ll be able to replay it by memory.

1. Because Chiefs.

2. Because Mahomes.


I'll admit a shit ton of homer bias due to 27 years of anguish combined with the absolute force that is Patrick Mahomes.

They made history with the 3 straight come from behind double digits to win by double digits, and he made history being the youngest Superbowl mvp in history, and youngest to be both a league and superbowl mvp.

I mean, a lot of it will be governed by bias, because a wildcard team going on a run to win it all could be argued for, because it was an extra game.

Im saying it's the greatest because its something we never saw in the 100 year history of the league, a resilience that strong and be just flat out unbeatable.

This made me lose it! Tears were FALLING!



We WILL REMEMBER THIS FOREVER! We sooooo deserved this here on CP, KC and all of CHIEFS KINGDOM!

he was so negative, we were doomed. He was certain. Told anyone who thought differently they were stupid and he knew differently.

Then he’s like my bad. How cool is this now, best one ever!

Hey, man. He's a Chiefs fan. We all have scars. Some are able to bounce back and stay positive better than others. But it's okay to have been negative in the past, and on cloud nine today.
