Sloppy Super Bowl Still Satisfying

 If you were hoping for a pristine, high-scoring game in the 58th version of the Super Bowl, you were sadly disappointed.

Seven fumbles, three lost (including a punt off a San Francisco return team member's foot that Kansas City turned into a touchdown), plus an interception and untimely penalties led to a low-scoring affair.

However, if you like a Super Bowl with drama, then Kansas City's 25-22 overtime win against those San Francisco 49ers had to be satisfying. You just can't bet against quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who won the game with his feet, his arm and his heart. Mahomes is 9-2 in postseason games when trailing by seven points. NEVER bet against Patrick!

Not a good look for KC tight end Travis Kelce, though. His outburst on the sideline, bumping Head Coach Andy Reid and bitchin' about not being in the game at a crucial time? Disappointing. I understand the frustration from alpha males and all, but really, Travis? Is this the image you want to project to all those Swifties who tuned in to see their hero watch you play football?

In case YOU weren't keeping score, I was. Those CBS cameras found Taylor Swift a baker's dozen during the game telecast. Yes, that much. Was thinking that, with the cool $1 million paid for the stadium suite (allegedly), came a TV contract as well.

The priceless look on Taylor's face, though, while Kelce was belting out his version of "Viva Las Vegas"? That look said "Don't. Ever.  EVER. Sing. Around. Me. Again. I. Mean. It."

Speaking of Kelce, in 13 playoff games he's caught about 130 passes for over 1,300 yards and 13 touchdowns. Definitely has been the security blanket for Mahomes.

And if the Kansas City Chiefs can now be considered a dynasty, having won three of the last five Super Bowls (and played in four of them), I have less of an issue with them as opposed to the Tom Brady/Bill Belichick led New England Patriots. Brady was just annoying, while Mahomes seems like a good dude you could root for. And comparing Andy Reid with grumpy ol' Belichick? No contest. I'll hang with Andy, once a Green Bay Packer coach, every time.

Seems that over 123 MILLION people watched Super Bowl LVIII. Wonder how many "Swifties" tuned in.

Happy to see Jimmy Leonard is headed to an NFL coaching staff, as he takes over defensive backs in Denver. Leonard spent a season as a player towards the end of his career with Denver. Think this is a good stepping stone to a Defensive Coordinator spot down the road.
