Not completely flipped. Mahomes has a ton of experience now. Purdy is the one stepping into the extreme pressure cooker of a Super Bowl for the first time. And it does matter. Mahomes was phenomenal in the first two games of the 2019 Playoffs against Houston & Tennessee. He struggled in the Super Bowl. He’s now got 2 more Super Bowl games under his belt and he played a perfect Super Bowl game last year on a bad leg. I would also say Las Vegas stadium is one place where Mahomes has played very well through the years. Familiar territory is nice.
