Weekend Super winners
Andy Reid and Patty Mahomes. The Chiefs have replaced the Pats as the franchise of the NFL. Reid has moved into sole position behind Coach Hoodie as the second-best coach of the last quarter-century. Mahomes has succeeded TB12 as the face of the league. As for Mahomes, a regular-season MVP and a Super Bowl MVP put an exclamation point on his path and his trajectory, because know this: If Mahomes retired this morning and went Andrew Luck on us, he’s a Hall of Famer. In 80 games. And now comes the word that Mahomes was the guy that delivered the halftime speech that energized the Chiefs.
Chris Stapleton. Wow, as good a national anthem performance as I can remember in a long, long, LONG time. And the image of the tears running down the Eagles coach’s face during the anthem was perfect.
Eric Bieniemy. The Chiefs OC now has two Super Bowl rings and redirected the NFL’s top passing attack into a run-first, run-again Super Bowl champ on the fly.
Harrison Ford. OK, I’m as flummoxed as the next movie fan that there seems to be no new movie ideas in Hollywood and sequels and remakes dominate the landscape. But man, Ford looked great in the promos for the next Indy Jones. Hard to believe dude will be 81 in July. Seriously.
