Hallmark Introduces Catrick Mahomes For Kansas City Chiefs Movie
A new Hallmark movie is coming to television. The film is a Christmas movie based around the Kansas City Chiefs.

Chiefs two-time Super Bowl champ a potential release candidate?
As the Chiefs navigated their post-Tyreek Hill offense, the front office sought reinforcement at the receiver position. One of the team’s most notable WR acquisitions was Kadarius Toney, who the Chiefs acquired from the Giants midway through the 2022 campaign.

Arrowheadlines: Patrick Mahomes named PFF’s best player
Mahomes is once again the best player in the NFL, and now that Aaron Donald has retired, it’s really no longer a question. The Chiefs are back-to-back champions under Mahomes’ leadership after he was once more able to elevate his game in the postseason. His 91.7 PFF overall grade across four playoff games was a notable and necessary jump from the 85.1 he recorded during the regular season. We are watching one of the best to ever do it, and the only thing left to determine his spot on the all-time list is for how long we will be lucky enough to witness it.
