It's easy to see that the NFL wants to make Mahomes the new Brady. Expect nonstop hype about:

-- Andy Reid's revenge on Iggles
-- two black QBs

Mahomes is an amazing talent w/a wholesome image, making him prime for hyping up. I'm a little sick of anyone the NFL hypes, though, so I'll go for the Iggles.

The NFL does its best to nudge outcomes that feature simple storylines, star QBs, and/or big markets. Thus, if the game was close, which it was, KC was going to be awarded some phantom calls. Cincy is a small market like Jax. KC is small, too, but much more of a storied/favored franchise, like the Packers and Steelers. I remember the Steelers-Seahawks Super Bowl. The Seahawks were up and had momentum, then all of a sudden phantom calls shifted the momentum. The Steelers had not been to the Super Bowl since the '70s, so evidently it was their time. Same with Jughead Manning's Super Bowl win against the Bears. The NFL desperately wanted to get wholesome image star QB Jughead a Super Bowl win.
