BOSTON — Super Bowl LVII provided a clear and emphatic illustration of what today’s NFL is all about.
The Chiefs beat the Eagles, 38-35, largely because they are masters at moving the football, and have the best quarterback in the game in Patrick Mahomes. The Chiefs can put up points in a hurry, score on every possession if necessary to get the job done, and come from behind facing any kind of deficit.
That used to be a long-held distinction of the Patriots’ championship teams with Tom Brady at the helm. Only now, that’s a far cry from what the team has shown on offense, and glaringly so last season.
