‘Tis the season to wrap gifts… And the Chiefs did not go easy on the Steelers at all, on Christmas Day, while wrapping up a 29-10 W. Now, that’s a statement while getting the AFC no.1 seed. Speaking of making statements, Travis Kelce decided to sprinkle some legend dust on the season by overtaking Tony Gonzalez’s record for most receiving TDs in franchise history. Kelce didn’t just catch passes; he caught the spotlight. But wait—there’s more. Patrick Mahomes, the gift that keeps on giving.
He made headlines off the field, too. Pat’s promise to his pregnant wife, Brittany? “I told my pregnant wife I was going to get the number one seed so that we can have the baby.” Sweet, cheeky, and oh-so-Mahomes.
What a way to wrap up the day. You want the Chiefs in action in the postseason? Trust they are coming in hot with all the family, power of friendship, energy behind them.

As for Mahomes, they are expecting their 3rd now… A baby girl soon. So, we can only imagine how well he really sticks to his words. Apparently, he does as Brittany was quick to take it to her socials as she captions: “Always keeping his promises.”
That’s Patrick Mahomes for you. However, none of us can doubt what on-the-gridiron pressure does to a pro player. And that’s another department the Chiefs and Mahomes are walking the talk. But boy, his synergy with Travis Kelce is the one to admire.

Patrick Mahomes did not forget to give flowers to Travis Kelce
What a moment for Travis Kelce. The Chiefs’ tight end didn’t just make history on Christmas Day; he solidified himself as Kansas City royalty. Breaking Tony Gonzalez’s record for most career receiving touchdowns in franchise history? That’s no small feat. And who else but Patrick Mahomes to deliver the record-breaking 12-yard pass in their dominant 29-10 win over the Steelers? A touchdown and a milestone wrapped up in one perfect holiday bow.
Mahomes didn’t hold back his admiration after the game: “He’s done so much for this organization, on and off the field. For him to have the career that he’s had is special.” Mahomes admitted he’d been gunning for this moment, hoping Kelce could break the record at home in Arrowhead. While it took until Week 17 to happen, he couldn’t be happier. “Now we can just play football,” he quipped. Classic Mahomes—cool, composed, and all heart.

Kelce now leads the Chiefs in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdowns, surpassing even the legendary Gonzalez in team history. But there’s more to come. As Kelce racks up these milestones, he’s carving out his spot not just in Kansas City but among the NFL’s all-time greats. For now, though, it’s all about celebrating the moment. Because, as Mahomes put it, “It’s awesome that he can have that accomplishment.” And honestly? It’s well-deserved.
