Last year, Patrick Mahomes said, “It would be legendary” if he and the Kansas City Chiefs were able to three-peat as Super Bowl champions. And after their win over the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship Game, they are only one hurdle away from that legendary status.
The quarterback’s mother, Randi Mahomes, is as excited for this historic day in New Orleans as any member of the Chiefs Kingdom.

Seven franchises have won back-to-back Super Bowls and embarked on a quest to three consecutive NFL championships. But despite the Pittsburgh Steelers attempting to do it twice, no team has ever come as far as the Chiefs to make history.
Mahomes Credits Teammates for Success Ahead of Super Bowl
It was another well-fought affair for the Chiefs to eliminate the Bills. After securing a Super Bowl berth, in an interview with CBS, Mahomes credited his teammates for their passion to win the contest.
“I’m just so proud of my teammates and how they responded,” he said. “That was a great football team. I’m lost for words. I’m just excited for New Orleans.”
“It’s not about one guy; it’s not about a couple guys. It’s about the whole team. And when we needed the defense to get stops, they got stops. Offense, we made plays. That’s why we’re so special because it’s a team effort and a team football game.”
