Everyone remembers the victory, but no one remembers the path that led to it. The Chief‘s victory in the last season is still engraved on the lips of NFL fans, but what about the humiliating loss in the season before that? The Chiefs were dominating the 2021 season, reaching the AFC championship against the Bills. Patrick Mahomes‘ declining performance and increasing fumbles left the fans heartbroken by the end of the game.

Post-match, everyone was either enraged or disappointed at Mahomes. Pat McAfee was certainly among those disappointed few as he piled on the Chiefs’ QB in a post-game discussion, and to anyone’s surprise, most of his predictions actually came true.

McAfee didn’t hold back before piling on Patrick Mahomes’ entourage

The former NFL punter turned sports analyst, was bamboozled by Mahomes’ performance. He did not expect at the slightest for his downfall in the championship. McAfee started the conversation with his co-hosts by saying, “What the f**k happened to Patrick Mahomes?” And later instigated how Pat’s wife, Brittany, and brother, Jackson, have been the biggest distractions during the game. The podcast host also insisted on why they could cause more distress if not cut off from the spotlight.

A year later, Mahomes’ brother has been sued for sexual harassment, which caused emotional anxiety to the whole family. The 2x MVP‘s dear wife also caused massive social media controversies that made headlines as well. So, maybe McAfee was onto something. Moreover, McAfee also predicted another event that actually came true.

Mahomes has learned his lessons

While McAfee criticized the Chiefs’ QB for a fumble that cost the team 35 yards in the most critical moment of the match, he also admired how the team played all throughout the season. He then predicted that this loss would definitely teach the Chiefs a lesson and they will perform better next season. And as history has shown, his prediction proved to be accurate.
