The Kansas City Chiefs said they had never seen their quarterback, Pat Mahomes, as accurate and intense as this Thursday, in their second and perhaps last full practice of the season, equipped, prior to the Super Bowl.
Receiver Tyreek Hill said Muhammad was impressed with the way he coached and everyone realized his quarterback is ready to face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this Sunday.
“Pat walks like crazy, he’s in rhythm,” Hill commented. “I’ve never seen Pat shoot this way in practice. He’s thrown crazy passes. I’m very excited. I just have to rub my hands for what’s to come. I’m very excited.”
Hill and the rest of the Chiefs had their last press session this Thursday, before playing the game that could make them the first two-time NFL champions, from the New England Patriots, in the 2003 and 2004 seasons.
“Pat came to change everything here,” Hill noted. “Not just on the field, but in the way we think and be competitive. I take my hat off to everything he’s done and will do.”
Closed wing Travis Kelce agreed that the team did a great pair of practices this week and that they are ready to compete against the Buccaneers.
“We’re as ready as we’ve ever been for a match,” he said. “We’ve been working hard for two weeks and we’re ready to apply what we’ve practiced.”
Chiefs COME WITH LIKE THE ARBITRATION STAFF
The Chiefs coach, Andy Reid, He has said he agrees with the refereeing staff of the Super Bowl and that he knows well the way the chief officer works, Carl Cheffers.
Cheffers led two Chiefs games this season, both wins, against divisional rivals, the Los Angeles Chargers, in Week 2, and the Las Vegas Raiders, in the eleventh round.
In fact, the Chiefs have never lost one of the five games Cheffers has led since Pat Mahomes became the starting quarterback.
Cheffers will lead his second Super Bowl, after in 2017 he was in the game the New England Patriots won over the Atlanta Falcons.
