Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs won their third Super Bowl in four years in dramatic fashion on Sunday night, beating the San Francisco 49ers, 25-22, in an overtime thriller in Las Vegas.
While the ending was intense for everyone watching, Mahomes seemed to be cool, calm, and collected before throwing the game-winning touchdown pass.

Oh, and his play was pretty good, too.
Thanks to the great folks at NFL films, we’re able to hear what the QB said in the huddle before the touchdown. Mahomes gathered his guys like it was just a ho-hum type of a moment and delivered a comical play call that Chiefs fans will never forget
