The Kansas City Chiefs are rewriting the NFL record books, and they’re showing no signs of slowing down. With their latest championship round berth, they’ve cemented their dynasty status, leaving rivals in the dust. Meanwhile, Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills once again fell short, continuing a painful streak of postseason exits at the hands of Patrick Mahomes. While Mahomes delivered yet another masterclass on the field, his biggest supporters, his family made headlines of their own in the stands.
Chiefs' historic victory, Mahomes' family moment, and Bills' heartbreaking setback
Patrick Mahomes is MORE like MJ or LeBron? Stephen A. & Shannon Sharpe REVEAL! | First Take
The Kansas City Chiefs just etched their names in history with their seventh championship round appearance and they didn’t just show up, they conquered. Absolutely unreal. Meanwhile, Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills suffered yet another heartbreak, with Allen now holding the unwanted record of being the only quarterback to be outdueled by the same rival four years in a row. Patrick Mahomes? He was simply on another level.
Chiefs fans also got a glimpse of Mahomes' biggest supporters in the stands, his family. What caught everyone's attention was Randi Mahomes and Pat Mahomes Sr. appearing together despite their 18-year separation. Randi even took to Instagram to share family moments, including a snapshot with game announcers Tony Romo and Jim Nantz.
What stood out was Randi’s grace. Even after Romo stirred controversy by accusing
Travis Kelce of flopping, she kept it classy, posing for a friendly picture with him and Nantz. Her caption said it all: “All glory to God for this incredible opportunity to witness history in the making. So grateful to watch you pour your heart into what you love, Son.” (Via: EssentiallySports)
And history is exactly what’s unfolding. The Chiefs have now joined an exclusive club, only the ninth team to chase a Super Bowl three-peat. Eight teams have attempted it before, with Tom Brady’s Patriots being the last, only to fall short in the divisional round. But this time, it’s Kansas City aiming for the ultimate milestone, determined to carve out their place in football immortality.

Patrick Mahomes found himself at the center of controversy after what many called an obvious flop during the Texans game. Despite the blatant exaggeration, the Chiefs' superstar QB surprisingly avoided a penalty. He attempted to justify his reaction, but fans weren’t buying it. The incident? A Texans player barely grazed Mahomes, yet he went flying nearly four feet away.
A similar situation unfolded during the Chiefs vs. Bills championship game, this time involving star tight end Travis Kelce. Announcer Tony Romo didn’t hold back, calling out Kelce for his antics.
In the second quarter, Bills safety Damar Hamlin brought Mahomes down with a wrestling-style move. While Mahomes shook it off, Kelce immediately confronted Hamlin, backed by several Chiefs teammates. Then came the heated moment—Bills' defensive tackle #97 Jordan Phillips made helmet-to-helmet contact with Kelce. Instead of standing his ground, Kelce dramatically flopped as if he had been forcefully shoved. That’s when Tony Romo quipped, “Kelce knows how to get under your skin,” in response to Jim Nantz’s remark: “Kelce came over and said, ‘What’s up with that?’”
Now, fans are slamming both Mahomes and Kelce for their flops. But should they have been penalized? Before jumping to conclusions, hold on, former Patriots star Julian Edelman just dropped a shocking truth about flopping and even called out Mahomes. The real question is: will the Chiefs' QB-TE duo adjust their approach after the backlash?
