The Eagles tried to let the Chiefs score a touchdown (to give them maximum time to try to score a touchdown of their own) but Kansas City ran the clock the down and kicked a field goal with 8-seconds left to go up 38-35. A mix of throws, runs and his own 26-yard yard scramble, got the Chiefs close to the end zone. With the Chiefs starting at their own 25-yard line, their MVP worked his magic. Patrick Mahomes knew what needed to be done. It didn't take long for Mahomes to throw another touchdown pass, this time to Skyy Moore to extend the Chiefs lead to 35-27. Kadarius Toney ran the kick 65-yards - the longest punt return in Super Bowl history to the Eagle five-yard-line. The Eagles punted on their next possession (just their second of the game) and the Chiefs capitalized. For the first time in the game, with 12-minutes left, Kansas City was leading: 28-27. Mahomes began the fourth quarter in his usual dominant way - leading the Chiefs down the field for yet another touchdown, a short pass to Kadarius Toney. On the next drive, the Eagles booted a field goal to extend the score to 27-21 and that was the tally at the end of the third quarter. And, after ten plays and five-and-a-half minutes, he guided the Chiefs to the end zone, slicing the Eagle lead to 24-21. He dashed and ran a bit, seemingly not slowed by his ankle injury. So it was no surprise that as the Chiefs opened the second half, Mahomes was back leading his team. Mahomes came into the Super Bowl as a two-time NFL MVP in his third Super Bowl appearance (won in 2020 and lost in 2021).
