    Ex Bucs' Shaq Barrett Reveals Super Bowl LV Secret Game Plan

    By Jonah Morgan,

    3 hours ago

    The Kansas City Chiefs have built a dynasty with Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce in the center, and head coach Andy Reid at the helm.

    The only team that has been able to stop the Chiefs in the big game when Mahomes is under center was the Tampa Bay Buccaneers back in Super Bowl LV. On a recent episode of the Up & Adams Show , former Bucs linebacker Shaquil Barrett talked about how the team was able to slow down Mahomes and the Chiefs.

    "We had a great game plan, we had two linebackers who were able to manage Kelce for the most part... The back end was able to focus on Tyreek. Then, up front we were ready to feast," Barrett said. "Having people back in the back end allows us to get there and gives us time to get there. That was what did it for us."

    The Bucs were able to hold one of the most explosive offenses in the league to just nine points in the Super Bowl, and that was the key factor in them being able to win the game.

    Barrett himself had four QB hits and a sack, and the team was able to hold the league's fastest wide out in Tyreek Hill to less than 100 yards receiving.

    Stopping Mahomes and the Chiefs is something that not many teams can say they have done, but the Buccaneers are one of them.
