Mahomes just beat the spy and found his way into the endzone with a great run.

These critics are idiots. If you play him straight up he goes out of bounds and kills the clock. If you stop him short of the goal line we get the ball on the goal line and use a timeout with one to spare. So basically the entire premise is built on the idea that mahomes will get his bell so rung up that he botches a gimme scoring opportunity. Well, one safety tried to hit him hard and fast and completely whiffed. Another stripped the ball and successfully got the ball out but mahomes miraculously held on to it.
Plain and simple, mahomes just made a good play. And even if the Titans make a play mahomes had a huge window to score anyway. Talk about overthinking a play to avoid giving credit to mahomes.
