Kansas City Chiefs' star quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, explodes with a three-word exclamation upon learning about Texas Tech's victory over Oklahoma.
Let's Get It!: Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs might be gunning for their fourth straight Super Bowl appearance, but last year's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX left a bitter taste. Despite the setback, Mahomes, a proud alum of Texas Tech, was recently seen celebrating his softball team's victory over Oklahoma, posting on social media, "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH LETS GOOOO!!!!!!!! @TexasTechSB."
Mahomes' love for his alma mater stays fierce, even as he reigns atop the NFL. When time permits, he attends every Texas Tech event he can, like the men's basketball team's NCAA Tournament game earlier this year. His competitive spirit is unmistakable, burning as strong off the field as on it. Can that fire drive him and the Chiefs towards another Super Bowl throne in 2025?
Will the Chiefs Rule the 2025 Super Bowl?
2025 may mark the end of an era for Kansas City, with legendary tight end Travis Kelce rumored to be considering retirement. The Chiefs' brass, headed by GM Brett Veach and head coach Andy Reid, are on a mission to keep their star quarterback Mahomes protected. With offensive tackles Josh Simmons (a first-round pick in the 2025 draft) and Jaylon Moore, rookie wide receiver Jalen Royal, and running back Brashard Smith added through the draft, the offensive line is getting a significant boost.
Further boosts come with the return of veteran running back Kareem Hunt and the acquisitions of backup quarterbacks Gardner Minshew and Bailey Zappe. The Chiefs' core offensive players, notably Kelce and wide receivers Xavier Worthy and Rashee Rice, will need to step up in 2025 if Mahomes and the offense are to regain their destructive form. With these additions and the right mindset, the Chiefs may well be on their way to another Super Bowl showdown next February.
