For the first time in years, Patrick Mahomes and his team were blown out in a big game. It wasn\u2019t just a loss it was a shocking end.Now, as the 2025 season approaches, Mahomes isn\u2019t talking about revenge. He\u2019s not looking to prove people wrong with words.Instead, he wants to get back on the field and play football correctly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Patrick Mahomes says Chiefs need joy not pressure<\/h2>\n<p>After a tough loss in Super Bowl LIX, many people expected Mahomes to come back with fire and frustration. But during an interview with Kay Adams, he made it clear he\u2019s ready to work, not talk.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Patrick Mahomes shares why Super Bowl wins matter more than his NFL Top 100 ranking with the Kansas City Chiefs <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PFN365?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@PFN365<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/UkwM0kJRx2\">https:\/\/t.co\/UkwM0kJRx2<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Scott Long (@scott_long5) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/scott_long5\/status\/1942327196900811220?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 7, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>He explained that the last season felt different.The team was winning, but it wasn\u2019t always fun. They were playing with pressure instead of passion. <span data-ua-type=\"1\">\u201cI feel like last year\u2026 guys wanted to win not for the fun of the game, but just because we&#8217;re supposed to,\u201d<\/span> he said.<\/p>\n<p>Now, Mahomes wants that joy back. The victories will come, he thinks, when the team plays with confidence and vigor. He is interested in outcomes, not vengeance. \u201cWe have the talent. We have the coaches. We work harder than anyone in the NFL.<\/p>\n<p>So let\u2019s go out there and have fun,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<h2>Patrick Mahomes is ready to unleash new weapons in 2025<\/h2>\n<p>One issue for the Chiefs in 2024 was their struggling receiving group. Injuries to Rashee Rice and Marquise Brown made things tough. But Mahomes believes the front office made strong moves for 2025. <span data-ua-type=\"1\">\u201cWe have so many weapons,\u201d <\/span>he said.<span data-ua-type=\"1\"> \u201cLet\u2019s go out there and just maximize it all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s excited about a healthy Rashee Rice, a fully fit Marquise \u201cHollywood\u201d Brown, and young star Xavier Worthy. Add in Travis Kelce and Noah Gray, and Mahomes sees endless options.\u201cI think it\u2019s gonna come from everywhere,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Chiefs are aware of past skepticism about them. They responded to detractors by taking back-to-back Super Bowls in 2022 and 2023. Though last year didn&#8217;t go their way, Mahomes thinks the future looks bright.<\/p>\n<p>Kansas City might be more deadly than ever with a good lineup and a rediscovered emphasis on pleasure. And Mahomes is more motivated by passion than by pressure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NFL News: Patrick Mahomes is gearing up for the 2025 season with a renewed focus.
