Jacksonville Jaguars star Travis Hunter responds to reporter who asked him why he got baptized before his game.

"It's a crazy question. Why did I get baptized? It's Sunday, it's God's day, and I've been planning to get baptized for a minute."

"I want to change my life, I want to become a better man..."

"It means a lot, you know, becoming a better man, leaving my old flesh and just becoming the new Travis."

Great answer.

@harryjsisson Consider taking your own advice: “gracious in defeat”. You tweet 3 times after this that America failed itself, elected a POS, and that we’re in trouble. Grow up. You got swept. How do you look at this result and not see the problem isn’t the people, it’s you. Total disconnect.

[Brian Benda @bpbenda]

@harryjsisson America is its electorate, and the electorate have clearly spoken. Your agreement with the message is irrelevant. To say America has failed itself is a massively out of touch elitist statement. Our country was founded on “We the People”. May the will of the people always prevail.

@brianeskow Friend shared your post to me. Your objectivity is refreshing. We need more of that regardless of how you vote. Thanks for sharing your path!

Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid now have five wins at Allegiant Stadium.

That's more than any other HC-QB combination, including from the Raiders.

A reminder: the Chiefs faced the hardest postseason road to a title ever, based on regular-season DVOA of their opponents.

[Warren Sharp @SharpFootball]

the scariest part about this Super Bowl?

this was supposed to be the year to knock off the Chiefs

Mahomes was most expensive cap hit in NFL at $37M

his OL was weakened

his WR1 was a rookie

they were forced to play SIX STRAIGHT GAMES at a REST DISADVANTAGE weeks 12-17, the ONLY time a team had to do that in NFL history

they had to play in Germany

they didn't get a 1st round bye

they had to play on the road in the Divisional Round as an underdog

they had to play on the road in the Conference Championship round as an underdog

they were underdogs in the Super Bowl and were losing by double digits

it was the TOUGHEST PATH to a Super Bowl based on strength of opponent faced EVER

and they STILL won the Super Bowl

[Emmanuel Acho @EmmanuelAcho]

In Patrick Mahomes best year as a starter, he went to the Super Bowl.

In Patrick Mahomes worst year as a starter, he went to the Super Bowl.

Patrick Mahomes is better than you think, regardless of how good you think he is.

@thehuddlefc Fan/collector, not investor. Enjoy watching the progress of his career. Love a good underdog story, which his became when he signed with Augsburg and his productivity plummeted. Hated to see him snubbed for the WC, but what doesn’t break a player hopefully makes him stronger.
