Patrick Mahomes did something last accomplished by Kurt Warner in 1999

Just a few days before Super Bowl LVII, Patrick Mahomes was named NFL MVP of the 2022 season. It was a deserved honor for the Chiefs quarterback, but potentially a bad omen for his team in the big game against the Philadelphia Eagles. The previous nine quarterbacks who won league MVP and also reached the Super Bowl went on to lose.

The last quarterback to win MVP and win the Super Bowl in the same season was Kurt Warner, who accomplished the feat in 1999 when he led the Rams to a win over the Titans in Super Bowl XXXIV. With the Chiefs beating the Eagles on Sunday night, Mahomes became the second quarterback since 1999 to win NFL MVP and the Super Bowl in the same season.
