The dynamic duo of Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce from the Kansas City Chiefs achieved a remarkable feat on Sunday, surpassing Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski's record for the most postseason touchdowns by a pair in NFL history. Their stellar performance during the game against the Buffalo Bills propelled them to their 16th postseason touchdown together, edging past Brady and Gronkowski's previous record.
Tom Brady, who had set the record alongside Gronkowski in 2017, took to social media to acknowledge Mahomes and Kelce's accomplishment.
"BEASTS. When you one up Gronk you’re doing something right," Brady shared in a post on X (formerly Twitter) Monday morning.
The Kansas City Chiefs secured a hard-fought 27-24 victory against the Buffalo Bills in New York on Sunday, advancing to the AFC Championship against the Baltimore Ravens scheduled for January 28.
With their victory, Mahomes and Kelce are now just one game away from potentially making it to the Super Bowl, set to take place on February 11 in Las Vegas.
Brady's post congratulating Mahomes and Kelce sparked a range of responses from his followers. Some expressed loyalty to the Brady/Gronk duo, while others acknowledged the passing of the torch to Mahomes and Kelce.
The banter continued with remarks suggesting Brady's potential return from retirement, referencing his previous unretirement in 2022 to play an additional NFL season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, Gronkowski had already retired for good after they won the 2021 Super Bowl.
Reflecting on the past year, Brady shared gratitude for the moments experienced and emphasized the importance of cherishing relationships with family and friends. He urged his fans to spread love and kindness in the coming year, emphasizing the significance of appreciating those around us.
As Brady transitions into retirement, his reflections and encouragement serve as a reminder of the value of human connections and the impact of love and compassion in our lives.
