Patrick Mahomes doesn't lose very often and is on the doorstep of leading the Kansas City Chiefs to the first ever 'Three-Peat' in NFL history.

With few losses on his ledger in his postseason career, Mahomes is 17-3 in his career in the playoffs, he has particualrly thrived in closely lined games. The Chiefs are quickly moving towards being a pick 'em in the Super Bowl, which is where the Kansas City signal caller bolsters a sterling record.

Patrick Mahomes is 7-0 ATS in the playoffs when the spread is inside of three points.

Despite the market moving towards Philadelphia, be advised that Mahomes hasn't lost in this type of setting before. It's also worth noting that the team was a 2.5-point underdog against the Eagles in the first meeting, which required a Mahomes-led comeback to beat Philadelphia in Super Bowl 57, 38-35.

With such a strong record it makes sense that the Chiefs have immense success when its a projected barnburner, and we may be in for a similar set up in Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans. 

For now, here are the updated betting odds that is essentially allowing you to pick the winner of the game at the same price. History says trust Mahomes.
