Dominate the Super Bowl

Chapter 949: 948 Full of Expectation

Mahomes took a full three beats to realize his impulsiveness—

Li Wei.

As the reigning regular-season MVP from last season and the Super Bowl MVP for two consecutive years, the unquestionable core of the team, Li Wei is undoubtedly the leader of the Kansas City Chiefs now.

If Veach were to prioritize negotiating an extension with Mahomes just because of Li Wei’s role as a running back and overlook Li Wei’s contributions, it would undoubtedly be hurtful.

Running backs—are they truly just disposable assets?

Can top-tier running backs really not influence a game like ordinary ones?

Lynch, Peterson, Bell, Gurley, Henry, Elliott, Barkley, and so many other outstanding running backs have carried their teams’ offenses on their backs. Are they not worthy of recognition?

The brutal reality is no less painful than what the Professional League subjected Houston, Berry, and others to.

And now, Mahomes is adding salt to Li Wei’s wounds?

This made Mahomes feel awkward and uneasy. Even though it wasn’t his decision, he still felt as though he had inadvertently hurt Li Wei.

Maybe he shouldn’t have come to tell Li Wei.

But the truth is, over the past two seasons, Mahomes has grown step by step under Li Wei’s guidance, unconsciously beginning to look up to Li Wei and trust him. The role Li Wei plays on the team is far from simple.
