Patrick Mahomes Speaks Out After Chiefs’ Disastrous Super Bowl Loss

Mahomes said it was “the worst thing in the world.”

Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes weighed in on his team’s stunning loss in New Orleans Sunday night, saying he was devastated after the Philadelphia Eagles’ 40-22 win at Super Bowl LIX. “They played great, there’s no way around it,” Mahomes told reporters after the game. Mahomes was hoping to score his fourth Super Bowl victory as he walked into Caesars Superdome, but instead left with what is being described as one of the worst games in his career by pundits online. “There’s no way around it. Anytime you lose a Super Bowl, it’s the worst thing in the world... it will stick with you the rest of your career,” he said. “It’s going to hurt for a while, but how can you respond from it?” Mahomes admitted, “I didn’t play to my standard and I have to be better next time.” Meanwhile, taking to X to post a message to fans, the 29-year-old wrote, “Appreciate all the love and support from #ChiefsKingdom I let y’all down today. I’ll always continue to work and try and learn and be better for it. Want to give thanks to God for every opportunity he has given me. We will be back."
