If there was no option in the end zone Mahomes should have thrown it away and then we had time for the 3 points. Throwing back to Hill let the clock run and we’ve come away with nothing. Otherwise a perfect first half for Mahomes
Have never watched American football so thought I’d give it a go tonight, pretty easy to understand once you actually see it.
How did you guys pick your teams that you follow? As I think I’d enjoy it more if I had a team to follow
Do you have any kind of geographical link to the US at all? That could help you pick a team. Or do one of those “which team to follow” quizzes that are all over the internet.
Or pick one of the four teams left in this year’s competition so you have some interest in the games you are watching now.
Don’t shy away from picking a “bad” team. With the way the league works, this year’s worst teams could be top of the charts a few years from now.

I tried to get into it a few times and couldn’t. A mate said I’d get into it easier if I picked a team.
True story….picking a team from scratch - the last thing I wanted was to be called a glory hunter. So I looked at the standings from the last year and picked the team that was absolutely rock bottom. In 2012 the Kansas City Chiefs ranked 32nd of 32. So I picked them.
In 9 seasons we’ve had winning records in all 9. Made the playoffs in 8 and are looking to reach our 3rd Super Bowl in a row.
Boston is my favourite American city, done one of the quizzes and got Arizona cardinals
Patriots would be your Boston team. Have the best head coach in the history of the league, rebuilding with a new quarterback after seeing Tom Brady move on.
Cardinals are decent atm, their quarterback is a lot of fun but they can’t shake off their choker reputation.
I was lucky enough to visit New Orleans many years ago, saw a game in the Superdome, and the Saints have been my team ever since. To be honest Baseball is my first love when it comes to American sports, but I love my NFL as well.
I don't really have one team I follow, I've got merchandise from 5 different teams. I quite like the Bills more than others but that was mostly just because I enjoyed Bills mafia videos on social media.
Probably going against the grain here but I feel the way the sport is shown that it is less important choosing a team. RedZone on sunday's during the regular season is amazing especially if you're just starting out.
Was a fan of Joe Montana. When he transferred from the niners to the Chiefs I followed. Montana retired a couple years later and I stayed with the chiefs. I have seen the Chiefs in a league game when they played at Wembley.

Patrick Mahomes line with 5:04 left int he second quarter:
13/14 for 154 yards, 3 TDs, 152.1 rating.
Three back to back appearances for the Chiefs coming up. Something that the Patriots themselves only managed once: 2016-18.
Otherwise a perfect first half for Mahomes
