Brittany Mahomes continues to be absolutely insufferable.
Following the Kansas City Chiefs punching a ticket to the Super Bowl after beating the Bengals Sunday night, Patrick Mahomes’ wife decided to hop on Twitter and do a little trolling.
She mocked Eli Apple’s previous troll of Stefon Diggs and smashed the send button on, “Cancun on 3 [peace sign emoji].”

Cancun on 3

Eli Apple, who committed a costly penalty late in the game, previously tweeted at Diggs about heading to Cancun after the Bengals beat the Bills.

Philadelphia Eagles fans will troll anyone, including the greatest receiver in NFL history, Jerry Rice.
Rice, the owner of practically every NFL receiving record, was on the sideline ahead of the 49ers’ matchup with the Eagles in the NFC Championship game. Being in enemy territory, Rice was an easy target for Philly fans.
While fans had fun shouting at Rice, the Hall of Famer had plenty of fun responding and did so without any words.

KANSAS CITY — There’s a moment when having fun and being confident gets unmasked. And then all the big talk and boldness that seems acceptable in the context of winning ages poorly in light of a loss.
That moment came for the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.
From top to bottom this team that is equal parts young and talented arrived in this town expecting to own Kansas City and its team as it has in the past. Expecting, as Cincinnati’s idiotic mayor Aftab Pureval tweeted, to make Arrowhead Stadium into Burrowhead Stadium named after Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow.

At 21-1, the Boilermakers are not only the best team in basketball but could give the Big Ten its first national champion since 2000.

We’ll never know how good this team could have been.
The Eagles can be the deserving champions of the NFC, and the 49ers can also be the best team we’ll never know the potential of. These aren’t mutually exclusive notions. Ultimately the most anticipated game of the weekend turned into its most disappointing, and the shame to it all isn’t that Philadelphia won, but rather our path to getting here.
We don’t need to gild the lily anymore: San Francisco ran out of quarterbacks, and that’s why they couldn’t compete on Sunday.

There’s one storyline relevant above all others right now, and it won’t change over the next two weeks: The two best teams made it to the Super Bowl. We’re in for a treat.

George Kittle is known for being one of the most easygoing players in the NFL. More often than not he’s smiling and dancing on the field, but that wasn’t the case after his team’s loss in the NFC Championship game on Sunday night.
The 49ers were struck with bad fortune early in the game when quarterback Brock Purdy had to leave the game with an elbow injury. This left San Francisco with Josh Johnson, the team’s fourth-string quarterback, under center. Johnson didn’t last long, however, as he was forced to leave the game with a concussion.

Before the Senior Bowl and the Shrine Bowl get underway, let’s take another crack at an NFL mock draft
The Super Bowl is set.
But with a bye week ahead of us, it is time to turn our attention to the 2023 NFL Draft. We can get to the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles in a little bit.
This week kicks off the official start to draft season, as NFL teams — and media — descend upon Mobile for the Senior Bowl, and upon Las Vegas for the Shrine Bowl.

The Green Bay Packers might be fully ready to move off Aaron Rodgers.
Once again, the NFL world is focused on Rodgers’ future and whether or not he’s played his last snap for the Packers.
A recent report seems to indicate the franchise is leaning heavily towards cutting him loose via a trade.

“League sources believe the franchise prefers to move on from Rodgers, just as it once did with Brett Favre.

Brock Purdy might have really dodged a bullet Sunday against the Eagles.
The seventh round QB pick hurt his elbow in the first quarter of the loss to Philadelphia in the NFL title game.
Purdy had to return to the action after Josh Johnson also went down, but it was clear he had no ability to throw the ball with any effectiveness.
While it looked rough Sunday, it sounds like he might have avoided serious damage.
