Since becoming the Kansas City Chiefs' starting quarterback, Patrick Mahomes and head coach Andy Reid have been highly inventive with trick plays.

No matter how big the game is, the Chiefs never hesitate to call their shots, as shown by this failed trick play in the Super Bowl. Regardless, the Chiefs' offensive line deserves a lot of credit for their Super Bowl victory as they protected Mahomes from one of the best defenses in the NFL.

Both the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles boasted excellent defenses. However, the quarterbacks didn't care and went on to put on a historic display in the Super Bowl.

In a losing cause, Jalen Hurts played the best game of his football career as he tormented the Chiefs' defense on numerous occasions. Hurts kept his team's chances alive when his defense was unable to stop Patrick Mahomes.

Jalen Hurts finished the game by throwing for 304 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed for 70 yards on 15 carries. Meanwhile, Patrick Mahomes threw for 182 yards and three touchdowns.

Mahomes and Hurts had a completion percentage of 77.8% and 71.1% which goes on to show how great both quarterbacks played in the Super Bowl. Both of these teams have bright futures ahead of them, and we may see a replay of this Super Bowl in the future.
