Patrick Mahomes ignites Chiefs’ intensity and determination for the season ahead
Speaking at Organized Team Activities (OTAs), Patrick Mahomes made it clear that the offseason grind has taken on a new meaning. Players are showing up earlier, pushing harder, and treating every rep like it’s January. The atmosphere is no longer casual—it’s calculated and intense.”When you lose a Super Bowl, I think there’s sometimes in those workouts, you may be a little tired, you have that extra added motivation to finish even harder, finish even stronger,” Mahomes said, via USA Today. “I think it’ll be good for us at the end of the day.””I mean, obviously looking back, you want to win the game. But a lot these guys hadn’t lost one (Super Bowl), hadn’t ended the season on a loss that are on this team now.
So, I’m sure they’ll be motivated to go back out there and try to find a way to get to the Super Bowl and win it this year.”Mahomes’ leadership continues to set the tone, both in mindset and play. During OTAs, he stunned fans and teammates alike with a behind-the-back pass that quickly went viral. It was more than a highlight—it was a message, the Chiefs are still evolving, still confident, and still dangerous.
