Former USC quarterback Mark Sanchez, a Pac-10 and Rose Bowl champion, reached the AFC Championship Game in an NFL playing career which, though not spectacular, was not a bust either. Sanchez has tasted the highest levels of competition in both college and the pros. He carved out a respectable career and is now an NFL game analyst for Fox Sports on Sundays. Sanchez is one of a select few people who has a color commentator role on national television for NFL Sunday games. He is doing quite well in his post-playing career. Sanchez discussed the Kansas City Chiefs’ win over the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas, with Patrick Mahomes featuring prominently in his comments.
Mahomes is the main engine behind the Chiefs’ dynastic rise, with back-to-back Super Bowl victories for the first time in the NFL since the Tom Brady-Bill Belichick Patriots in the 2003 and 2004 seasons. The Chiefs, who have made four of the past five Super Bowls and are 3-1 in those four Supes, have won three of the last five NFL championships and just completed a run in which they beat the top two seeds in the AFC on the road with Rashee Rice as their No. 1 wide receiver. If they could do that, and if they can find an elite receiver this year, their dynasty — with Mahomes at the wheel — is not likely to end anytime soon.
