But the family of team MVP Patrick Mahomes is dealing with some issues away from the field. Patrick's maternal grandmother passed away in April 2023. And now his grandfather, mom Randi Mahomes' father, is struggling and is in the hospital.

In his postgame news conference, Mahomes admitted he clearly saw Perine falling to the turf following a hit by Pittsburgh linebacker Patrick Queen. The QB then decided he was going to run (and maybe use his patented fake pitch) before choosing a different option late.
