The Celebrations Begin

"We never lost faith. Everybody on this team, no one had their head down and we found a way to win in the end," Mahomes said post-match.

"The defense got some big stops for us and we found a way to win. Coach [Andy] Reid told me 'keep firing, keep believing' and he gave me a lot of confidence to go out there no matter what. The 49ers have an amazing defense, one of the best defenses I've played against so far and I'm just glad our guys kept fighting. This team has heart, coach pushes us to be the best we can be. We did it baby!" Mahomes added.
