Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs owner thank God after victory

In a post-game interview after winning his third Super Bowl, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes said that God challenged his team to overcome much adversity this season.

"It means a ton. Just the adversity we dealt with this year and to come through. The guys never faltered," Mahomes said in an interview with CBS Sports. "I give God the glory. He challenged us to make us better. I am proud of my guys. They did awesome. Legendary."

Clark Hunt, the owner, chairman and CEO of the Chiefs, also gave thanks to the Lord after the team secured its third NFL title in five years.

"First of all I want to congratulate [head coach] Andy [Reid], the football team, our coaching staff on an incredible performance. It's been an amazing five-year run," Hunt said while accepting the Vince Lombardi Trophy for a second year in a row. "I want to thank the Lord for giving us this opportunity."
