Patrick Mahomes seems ready for the biggest challenge of his career, come the 12th of February. If the Chiefs go on to win the Super Bowl, it will be his third championship victory, and that’s something he’s desperately chasing. In the Super Bowl LVXIII Conference, Mahomes was seen on the podium taking on a tornado of questions. One of which was on the way he runs, something fans find somewhat peculiar.

In response to these questions about his running style, Mahomes revealed his secrets and said, “I think I’ve gotten better in my running form and faster as I’ve kind of been in the NFL. But it doesn’t look the prettiest so uh I think people think I’m slow. I think it’s kind of deceptive sometimes. I think the defense takes bad angles because they think they’re going to catch me faster than they do and so maybe that’s the secret to my speed is that I run not the way everybody else runs.” The Kansas City Chiefs are getting ready to take on the might of the San Francisco 49ers on the grandest stage of all and you can bet that Mahomes’ funny running style will have a major role to play in the game. With all that said, this is what the QB had to say about the glorious career he’s had as he makes his fourth Super Bowl appearance in 5 years.

“I’ve been blessed,” says Patrick Mahomes as he makes it into his 4th Super Bowl game

The 28-year-old is on his way to add another Super Bowl ring to his trophy case. With his team’s wins in 2020 and 2023, maybe the Chiefs might just vanquish the 49ers and take home the championship twice in a row. Mahomes is one of the most vital parts of the roster and in a recent statement, he took a breather to acknowledge his successful career and counted his blessings.

Mahomes said, “I don’t think I could have ever foreseen what was going to happen at the start of my career. You want to get to the Super Bowl. That’s your ultimate goal, and to be able to be in my fourth one, it truly is surreal and I just try to appreciate it every single time,” Mahomes said. “You don’t even know if this will be your last, and I’ve been blessed to be in a lot with a great organization with a lot of great players around me, so I just try to maximize those opportunities.” Thus, the next-big-Brady has his eyes set on the match against the 49ers, which will be a spectacle to watch on February 12th.
