BroStorm Sports, Episode 17: Mahomes magic, Burrowhead my ass, and a Kelce brothers Super bowl
In this Episode we BroStorm an epic AFC Championship game, the greatness of Patrick Mahomes (and Andy Reid and his Chiefs teammates), talk about how the cockiness of the Bengals finally caught up to them, briefly discuss a less than exciting NFC Championship game, and look ahead to what should be an amazing Super Bowl highlighting a legacy-defining game for Patrick Mahomes and the Kelce brothers duking it outj.
In this Episode we start off by discussing an Epic Chiefs-Bengals AFC championship rematch:
- The Bengals talked a lot in the lead up to this game - including calling it Burrow-head stadium, and the Cincy mayor saying that Joe Burrow was Patrick Mahomes father.
- In the end, it probably did not help them, as the Chiefs got their revenge in a great game that ultimately came down to a field goal again.
- Intern P believes that the NFL is rigger...or at least that the officials were terrible in this game.
- Ultimately the Chiefs came away with a team win - impressive given the # of players for the Chiefs that got hurt during the game.
- The Chiefs has built a young roster around Mahomes that is here to stay (a scary proposition for the rest of the league)
We also discussed, albeit not for as long, the NFC championship game.
- The game was over about mid-way through the quarter when Brock Purdy went down with an injury.
- Was it a mistake that the 49ers didn't carry a 3rd quarterback?
- It feels like by the end of the season, the Niners are brutally beat up (especially their quarterbacks) every season.
- Kyle Shanahan continues his run of questionable big-game management.
- The Eagles look impressive, but it also feels hard to judge given they played a team literally without a player on their roster that could throw a pass.
We look ahead to the Super Bowl, discussing some early storylines:
- What is the biggest storyline? The Andy Reid Bowl? Patrick Mahomes Legacy game? Chiefs Dynasty with a win? The Kelce Brothers? The first SuperBowl ever with two black quarterbacks starting?
- So many to choose from. Early line favors the Ealges, although are the chiefs being underestimated, again?
