This will be the first time the two teams face each other after the 2020 Super Bowl.

Tinesha Mahomes went live on her YouTube channel, 2 Gems and a Mic Podcast, featuring Patrick Mahomes’s father, Pat Mahomes Sr, and four others to discuss the Super Bowl and the Chiefs’ performance throughout the season. There, she praised Mahomes’ performance and asked Pat about his viewpoint on his MVP son’s excellent performance in his 20s by saying, “Playoff Pat is on a different level.”

Mahomes’ father expressed his appreciation for his son’s achievements at a young age. The former MLB pitcher shed light on Mahomes’ progression from when he started his NFL journey and praised his learning spirit. According to him, Mahomes has learned how to throw the ball and how to win. Furthermore, he revealed how, in his early days, Mahomes used to look for a way to win, but now he is looking for ways to improve his defenses.

Pat Mahomes’s take is fair, given the Chiefs’ performance this season, especially against the Ravens. The team’s defense played exceptionally well, thanks to defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo’s strategic mindset. They efficiently disrupted Lamar Jackson’s performance. The Chief’s army created turnovers at significant moments. Furthermore, Mahomes’ tremendous effort in covering 241 yards and completing 30 out of 39 passes played a substantial role in locking the win.

Like Tinesha, 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan also acknowledged the threat from Patrick Mahomes.

Shanahan’s players are locked in a 2020 rematch against the Chiefs. During that showdown, the Chiefs came up with flying colors. But things are different this time, as the team has their star quarterback, Brock Purdy, who etched his name in the MVP discussion. He is the third youngest quarterback to start the Super Bowl. Besides that, Christian McCaffrey emerged as a prolific player in the NFC Championship round by scoring two rushing TDs in the second half. With these stunning records, it is hard to predict the exact result. But which team are you rooting for?
