Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce have not been able to move past the Super Bowl defeat, particularly with two months until the 2025 NFL season begins.
Travis Kelce discussed how emotionally and tactically devastating that game was during an appearance on Taylor Lewan’s Bussin’ With The Boys podcast earlier this week. The Chiefs were completely outplayed by an Eagles team that had a perfect game plan.
They rendered the entire Kansas City offense, including Patrick Mahomes and Kelce, defenseless on the field.
“The yardage in the first half was tough… Didn’t get a whole lot better… Not trying to be disrespectful, but at what point were you like, ‘Okay, we’re not going to be able to pull this one out?”

Kelce answered: “I don’t know if that ever came in my mind. It was always just keep fu— fighting and see what happens. But at the same time, it got ugly quick. That wasn’t too fun when they yanked their DBs out, or their, like, big guys on defense. I was just like, ‘F– man, I know what that sign is’. At that point, it’s like you’re still trying to… you’re in the mode of… fight-just give your guys and your coaches everything you got, and it just wasn’t going our way.”
“I’ll give credit man, those from the D-line to the linebackers to the defensive backs-everywhere on that football field, they had guys flying around.
I don’t know if they had a tick on what was going on or if they just kind of had the rules set in place but it felt like in the run game and pass game… they just had stuff figured out. And even the stuff that they… even when we got the right call, it was like we were just a step off or timing off… Pat was under duress and we just had to try and figure things out on the run. It was just an uphill battle all fu— day”
For the Chiefs, that night was one of sorrow, suffering, and tears. Patrick Mahomes has also been unable to move on, much like Kelce.
