Mahomes isn’t overhyped or overrated. He is THAT GOOD.

But being THAT GOOD doesn’t automatically translate into titles. It didn’t for Marino, Rodgers, Wilson, and others. And THAT is the problem I have with Mahomes, and probably many others do too. The media says he is guaranteed to win multiple titles, or more.

No, he isn’t.
This is wisdom from my neighbor. Those old enough to remember the end of SB XIX, there was a lot of talk about how Marino would have other opportunities in Super Bowls to come. Which seemed reasonable at the the time, but that was it for Dan. And all the records he set at the time couldn't land him another chance.

Bengals are so good that they are winning both of today’s games — the second one without even playing in it.

In the alternate universe, That was one of those plays where many of us see "pass was behind him," and others note, "he was trying to avoid getting him killed."

By the way guys. I still can’t believe KC blew a 21-3 lead at home in the AFCCG and their season is over. I knew there was a reason I decided to drink today. (Rare for me on a Sunday)

Amazing how you can get a play off quickly when you give the ball to the official instead of giving it to your center. It’s almost like they should teach that to every player from Pop Warner on up.

Believe it. As I have said before, Burrow is THAT guy.

No taunting penalty? Doesn't impact field position at all, but would be a "yellow card".

(Not saying it should be, except for the standard set this year).

I just realized the AFC's representative in the Super Bowl is the team that knocked me out of the big survivor pool by blowing an 11-point fourth quarter lead against the Jets.

Not sure that misogynistic attack on a female journalist supports your point, but it’s certainly on brand for you.
I don’t know who the hell you think I am, but considering the complete lack of comprehension of my original post, that certainly jives with your attention to detail.
