The Kansas City Chiefs are now a dynasty.
Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs won their second straight Super Bowl by eking out a 25-22 overtime victory over the San Francisco 49ers at Super Bowl LVIII from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Sunday night.
With 7:27 left in OT, the Chiefs trailing the Niners, 25-22, and the Vince Lombardi Trophy in the balance, Mahomes began authoring a 13-play, 75-yard Super Bowl-winning drive. The Chiefs converted three third downs and one fourth down as part of the drive before Mahomes rolled right, stopped on the dime and fired a 3-yard touchdown pass to a wide-open Mecole Hardman Jr. in the end zone.
With the victory, the Chiefs have now won two consecutive Super Bowls and three Super Bowls in the last five years, stamping their dynasty status. Mahomes was named the Super Bowl MVP for the third time in his career, joining Tom Brady and Joe Montana as the only other players to have won three Super Bowls and three Super Bowl MVPs. He finished with 333 yards passing for two touchdowns.
Although, this back-to-back coronation was far from easy as it first took Mahomes and the Chiefs having to force overtime to get the mission completed.
Trailing the Niners 19-16 with 1:53 in the fourth quarter, Mahomes led the Chiefs on an 11-play, 64-yard drive, which included a 3rd-and-7 strike to Travis Kelce for 22 yards with 16 seconds left to set up a game-tying Harrison Butker 29-yard field goal with 0:03 left to force OT.
The extra period had the Niners striking first with a 13-play, 66-yard drive which ended in a field goal, before the Chiefs clinched the game with their touchdown drive.
