Taylor Swift Gets Booed, Her Boyfriend Shakes Her Coach, and Patrick Mahomes Rules Again

What happens in Las Vegas stays in Las Vegas. Unless it’s in Super Bowl. In this case, what happens in Las Vegas is seen by the entire planet, and since there is nothing that makes sense in this alien redoubt in the middle of the desert, the night becomes obsolete, absurd, surreal and, in its own way, a strange comedy ..by the way, memorable.

Everything happened. (Half) America’s girlfriend booed while downing a beer, (Half) America’s boyfriend shaking his venerable coach, seriously injured from running on the field, a singer skating and showing his nipples just because (in some forgotten room, Janet Jackson poured himself another whiskey, thinking: “That’s it, right? That’s it”), and the receiver made a single pass. landing first half, spontaneous, ridiculous mistakes, circus performances, extra time and, amid the chaos, the logical point: they won Patrick Mahomes. It’s the third call in five years for Kansas City, a dynasty that shows no signs of ending. Even in the darkest season they managed to win the trophy. If Mahomes left today, he would already be one of the three or four greatest players in history. He is only 28 years old. The world is yours.

Let’s do it in parts. The Chiefs weren’t supposed to make it to halftime alive. San Francisco’s defense, which throughout the season had not performed at the level that the sum of its brilliant parts predicted, got serious on D-Day. Putting pressure on Mahomes over and over again, without having to send additional players after him, and flawlessly in his original plan to stop Travis Kelseyleft his attack, which combines more individual talents than any other, on the platter to very soon cover an insurmountable distance.

He failed because his two best players, running back Christian McCaffrey and offensive line leader, Trent Williams, they made uncharacteristic mistakes in the first two California attacks. The loss of the former (he had committed only four in his previous 97 games) and two consecutive penalties of the latter kept the Chiefs within striking distance, but the sense of desperation was enormous.

It got to the point where Kelsey, even knowing that the entire planet was watching him since he started his relationship with Taylor Swiftlost his mind and shocked his own trainer, the incomparable Andy Reid, demanding more fame. If it turned out to be another game, he would send him to the locker room and not play another second, but this was the Super Bowl and Kelce, the star. This would ultimately make all the difference.

This wasn’t the only incident the couple faced at the time. Swift arrived on time for her concert in Tokyo and tried to remain in the background even during the final celebration. He didn’t monopolize excessive screen time, especially when the celebrity spotlight is a fundamental part of the show. Leo DiCaprio, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Paul McCartney, LeBron James…Everyone came to get applause, but the only one who got booed when she appeared on the video board was the singer. In response, she drank the beer in one gulp and slammed the glass on the table. Queen.

We said the 49ers should have settled this issue, but that’s just a stroke of genius from the 49ers playbook. Kyle Shanahan, a magician who would again come out marked for failure in the last match (there were three, but he would win), allowed them to take a 10-3 half-time lead. The trick ended with a pass to the receiver. Jauan Jennings, McCaffrey. A small reward and dark signs were already approaching: Dre Greenlaw, one of their defensive pillars, single-handedly tore his Achilles while running on the field. Unusual.

Halftime Show by Asherit was kind of a deleted scene from Barbie with the singer playing Ken: glitter, gestures, choreography surrounded by colleagues and showing pectoral muscles that no one understands. He even sang on roller skates. Since it went from less to more and was accompanied by Alicia Keys and HER, we’ll give it high marks.

In his three Super Bowl victories, Mahomes came back from 10-point deficits, and that was on San Francisco’s mind as he returned to the field, although in none of them was he as alone as in this one. The Californians had match ball early on when MVP made a throw and was intercepted. It is very difficult to work miracles when everyone knows that you are obliged to do it, and every minute they are watching you in search of a trick. This time they caught him. Not one more.

The 49ers offense stalled and forgot to run, Kelce became Kelce again and added yard after yard, and suddenly Kansas City took a 13-16 lead into the fourth quarter. San Francisco responded well with the best action of the night Brock Purdyhis defender, whose rise from last pick in the 2022 draft (262nd overall) to star has been one of the stories of the decade. The Super Bowl didn’t end his Cinderella story, but it didn’t turn him into a pumpkin either. The ending has not yet been written.

After you have moved forward landing As for Jennings, the 49ers missed the ensuing kick and gave up a point that would ultimately prove decisive for the Chiefs and force overtime. What we all suspected happened there. Purdy led a great attack, but did not finish it, adding only three points for the game. field goal. This gave Mahomes the decisive blow: landing game over. Ten minutes later he lifted the trophy.

Anything can happen in Las Vegas except one thing: you’ll lose your bankroll. Patrick Mahomes is benched.
