Mahomes wasn't playing poorly, he was facing a well structured and disciplined defense. So instead of just letting fly and relying on mistakes to simply be there on the defense, he/they had to start picking and probing and stressing the structure.
It's kind of like free-solo mountain climbing. In the moment, there might look like a lot of waiting and resting and trying shit that doesn't work great, but so long as you don't actually fall off the mountain you're still in the fight, and when you finally reach the summit the evidence is in that you're a badass climber.
Being a champion isn't always about making it look easy. Sometimes it's winning even when it looks messy and hard.

Great post. I am not angry at all, I am on cloud nine right now. None of the shit talk on the Chiefs or Mahomes means a damn thing. They set a lofty goal, and as a team- made it happen.
It is not like they had an easy ride. It was a very tough season, injury-wise, schedule-wise, playing conditions and then coming back in 3 straight playoff games. They are exactly what a Champion is and represents.
