It’s been an honor to be on this ride with y’all. The fact that we looked all but dead to rights on Christmas but now find ourselves in our fourth Super Bowl in five years speaks to the magic that Mahomes, Reid and Spags have brought to this franchise. They have made everything feel possible every time they take the field.
1 Franco Harris 354
2 Larry Csonka 297
3 Emmitt Smith 289
4 Terrell Davis 259 (tainted by cheating)
5 John Riggins 230
6 Timmy Smith 204
7 Thurman Thomas 204 (tainted by being a jerk)
8 Roger Craig 198
9 Marcus Allen 191
10 Antowain Smith 175 (tainted by cheating)
Mahomes is 33rd with 106, Pacheco is 53rd with 76, and Clyde is 65th with 64.
So Mahomes could potentially move into the top ten with 70 yards, and Pacheco just needs a 100-yard game. Clyde also has a shot and needs only 112 to move into the all-time top ten. [Reply]

It’s been a dream every step of the way.
This is it, you and Twisted are right. I'm still a noob here really and it's been a lot of fun. This year has been mental. If we win it I honestly think it's the most remarkable turnaround and Mahomes' finest hour (for now). If not, I don't want to sound complacent, but...we'll be back. It's insane to witness. [Reply]

A 300-yard game will put Patrick into 5th place (3rd among non-cheaters), and a 400-yard game will put Patrick into 4th (3rd among non-cheaters).
419 yards would catapult Mahomes from 8th to 2nd. That’s crazy. [Reply]

Three field goals today will make Harrison Butker the undisputed all-time field goal leader. Let's hope he spends a lot of time kicking extra points today, but field goals are still very good. [Reply]
