Patrick Mahomes Responds to Viral “Dad Bod” Meme

January 31, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Patrick Mahomes has responded to the viral “dad bod” meme that arose in the wake of the Chiefs AFC Championship win last weekend. “Yoooo why they have to do me like that!?!?!? #DadBodSZN,” Mahomes wrote on X, formerly Twitter. The QB was responding to footage from Inside the NFL that went viral amid the Chiefs win. The footage showed a shirtless Mahomes celebrating in the locker room and the angle gave the star player a bit of a gut.

This of course went wild on NFL socials, with fans eagerly sharing the images and changing their handles to things such as “Fatty Patty” and similar names. The Chiefs leaned on their defense to shut out the Ravens in the AFC Championship Game. Mahomes threw for 241 yards and a touchdown in the win.

Patrick Mahomes & Travis Kelce Speak On Justin Tucker Beef

Meanwhile, Mahomes also spoke on the beef that has emerged between himself, Travis Kelce, and Ravens kicker Justin Tucker. Mahomes said Tucker’s behavior has become a regular occurrence when the Chiefs and Ravens play. “I’ve had seven years of doing that same warmup routine and there’s only been like three occasions where there’s been a kicker that wasn’t moving out of the way. It was in Baltimore all three times. He does that to get under our skin. I asked him to move his stuff and he got up and moved it I think two inches but didn’t move it out of the way. I was going to let it slide but Travis moved it for me and after that I wasn’t going to let him put it back down,” Mahomes told local sports radio in Kansas City.

Meanwhile, Travis Kelce also blamed Tucker, saying he had broken an “unwritten rule”. During the latest episode of New Heights, Kelce explained that Tucker had been a “f-cking d-ck” and had been purposefully messing with Mahomes and Kelce as they warmed up. “If you want to be a f-cking d-ck about it, you keep your helmet and your football and your f-cking kicking tee right where the quarterbacks are warming up and they’re dropping, eyes are looking left and they’ve got a helmet down by their feet,” Kelce told his brother.

SOURCE SPORTS: Mahomes, Kelce, and Chiefs Headed Back to Super Bowl

January 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Kansas City Chiefs return to the Super Bowl after winning 17-10 over the Baltimore Ravens.

The trip to Las Vegas is special for the Chiefs as they attempt to become the first team to repeat as Super Bowl champs since the 2004 New England Patriots.

In the game, superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes went 30-for-39 for 241 yards and a touchdown, including a game-clinching dart to Marquez Valdez-Scantling with two minutes left in the fourth quarter.

“You never know how many you’re going to get to or if you’re going to get to any,” Mahomes said. “So it truly is special just to do it with these guys after what we’ve been through all season long. Guys coming together, it really is special. But I told them, ‘The job’s not done.’ Our job now is to prepare ourselves to play a good football team in the Super Bowl and try to get that ring.”

During the game, Mahomes’ top target, Travis Kelce, had 11 catches for 116 yards and a touchdown. He also broke Jerry Rice’s record of 151 career receptions.

Travis Kelce Blasted For Justin Tucker Disrespect At AFC Championship Game

January 28, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Things are already popping off at the AFC Championship Game. During pre-game warmups, Travis Kelce was seen kicking and throwing equipment belonging to veteran Ravens placekicker Justin Tucker. Fans immediately piled on the “disrespectful” behavior. “Mahomes and kelce are some losers for that low key,” one fan noted. Meanwhile, several other fans noted how good the “inevitable” game-winning field goal from Tucker was going to feel.

The Chiefs looking for their third Super Bowl appearance in the last four years. Meanwhile, the Ravens are hoping to reach their first Super Bowl since 2012. Ravens coach John Harbaugh was joined by his brother, newly-appointed Chargers head coach Jim, on the sideline in Baltimore. The game is expected to be close, with the deciding factor likely being on the defense.

Mural Of Taylor Swift In A Ravens Jersey Appears In Maryland

A post shared by SportsCenter (@sportscenter)

The two fanbases have been chirping at one another all week. A Maryland-based artist and Ravens fan has taken trash-talking to a new level with his latest Taylor Swift-inspired piece. The artist, known as Dlordink on social media, showcased an intricate mural of Taylor Swift wearing a Ravens jersey ahead of the team’s matchup against the Chiefs this weekend. Furthermore, Dlordink called out Swift and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. “Tag @taylorswift & @killatrav in the comments and let them know how good she looks in @new_era8 @ravens purple,” he added as a caption.

Swift is expected to head to Baltimore this week as the Chiefs look for their third Super Bowl appearance in four years. However, the Ravens are hosting for the first time in franchise history. This ends a run of five consecutive championship home games for Kansas City. Meanwhile, Chiefs fans have tried to play off the trash talk. “Huh. Weird. I have to say, as a Chiefs fan, we kinda…don’t think about you at all. But whatever makes you feel better about things. Enjoy the crab cakes,” one fan replied on Twitter.

AFC & NFC Championship Games: Who Is Heading To The Super Bowl?

January 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Just four teams remain in the NFL playoffs. Some were expected to be here; others were more surprising. In the AFC, the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs travel to the white-hot Baltimore Ravens. Meanwhile, the NFC sees the Detroit Lions attempt to make their first Super Bowl at the expense of the San Francisco 49ers. With both games scheduled for Sunday, HotNewHipHop has everything you need to know about the AFC & NFC Championship Games.

AFC: Chiefs @ Ravens

When: January 28, 3:00 PM ET

Where: M&T Bank Stadium, Baltimore

Odds: Baltimore -4

The Chiefs enter their sixth consecutive AFC Championship Game under very different circumstances to the previous five. For one, they aren’t hosting. And secondly, they are doing so after winning less than 12 games in the regular season. While the Chiefs still rule the AFC West, they don’t look like the powerhouse team that has made two of the last three Super Bowls. It’s not that the Chiefs are worse, it’s simply that the rest of the conference is catching up.

And that’s where their hosts, the Ravens, come in. After beginning the season unsure if Lamar Jackson would actually play, the team stormed to the league’s best record. However, this marks new territory for the team. They appear in their first Conference Championship Game since 2012, the year they won the Super Bowl. But the newness cuts both ways. The Ravens will get to enjoy their home-field Conference Championship Game in franchise history.

Can Kansas City Slow Down Baltimore?

The big question heading into this matchup will be whether the Chiefs can slow down Baltimore enough to let Patrick Mahomes ball out. Kansas City allowed the second-fewest yards per game during the regular season (289.8). However, their defense must contend with the league’s sixth-highest yardage team in Baltimore (370.4). There will be high expectations from the DT Chris Jones and CB Trent McDuffie, both All-Pro First Teamers for the Chiefs.

The key for Baltimore will be in the backfield. Unsurprisingly, given their prototypical dual-threat QB, Baltimore led the league in rushing yards per game this season (156.5). Conversely, the Chiefs allowed the 15th-most rushing yards during the regular season (113.2). If the Chiefs can’t stop the run, it’s going to be a long night for the red-and-white faithful.

Prediction: Ravens 20 – 17 Chiefs. Chiefs don’t allow the Ravens to ever run away with the game but just don’t have enough to neutralize the potency of Baltimore’s ground game.

NFC: Lions @ 49ers

When: January 28, 6:30 PM PT

Where: Levi Stadium, Santa Clara

Odds: San Francisco -7.5

The 49ers were here a year ago, on the cusp of a Super Bowl appearance. However, a spate of injuries saw them steamrolled by the Eagles. They were here the year before that, when they were 15 minutes from the Super Bowl before allowing 13 fourth-quarter points to lose to the Rams. Now they stand 60 minutes from another Super Bowl, with a former Mr. Irrelevant at quarterback. The NFC has been weird this year, with no one emerging as a clear favorite. However, the Niners have been one of the conference’s better teams. They are an offensive juggernaut (four offensive all-pro first-teamers) and are ready to flex that moniker all the way to a Lombardi.

However, they will have to overcome this year’s scrappy underdog. In 2008, the Detroit Lions went 0-16. Since that infamous season, they have appeared in the playoffs just four times. And now they are one game away from their first-ever Super Bowl appearance. The last time the Lions were in this position, it was 1957 and they were playing for a chance to appear in the pre-Super Bowl NFL Championship. But head coach Dan Campbell, the epitome of “never give up, never surrender” has turned the Lions into a team that their fans can finally believe in.

Who Wins The Backfield Duel?

The running game will absolutely define the NFC Championship. The 49ers have the league’s best running back in Christian McCaffery. McCaffery rushed for 1459 yards, nearly 300 more yards than the next best back in the league (Derrick Henry). However, the Lions have an elite backfield of their own. The two-pronged attack in Detroit begins with fifth-year back David Montgomery. After signing with the Lions ahead of the 2023 season, Montgomery rewarded the team with his first 1000-yard season since 2020. However, Montgomery isn’t alone. Many people questioned Detroit’s decision to take Alabama running back Jahmyr Gibbs 12th overall in the 2023 draft, especially after trading back from 6th overall. Well, Gibbs rushed for 945 yards in the regular season.

However, it’s not just about the run game for these two teams, it’s also about their run defense. The Lions and Niners are second and third respectively in run defense this season, with 0.9 yards per game separating them. Teams have simply not been able to drive out of the backfield against either team. This becomes a fascinating dynamic, however, when the opponent is someone with as prolific a run game as these two teams have. This means that whoever finds the edge in the backfield will hold the keys to this matchup.

Prediction: 49ers 30 – 23 Lions. This will likely be the game of the season. However, as much as the Lions deserve to be here and will keep it close, the Niners’ overwhelming offense gives them the edge here.

AFC/NFC Championship Games: Who Wins?

However, let us know what you think! Is Kansas City headed to yet another Super Bowl? Do the Lions find a way to beat San Francisco? We’d love to hear your thoughts.

Taylor Swift In A Ravens Jersey Is The Latest Piece Of AFC Championship Trash Talk

January 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

A Maryland-based artist and Ravens fan has taken trash-talking to a new level with his latest Taylor Swift-inspired piece. The artist, known as Dlordink on social media, showcased an intricate mural of Taylor Swift wearing a Ravens jersey ahead of the team’s matchup against the Chiefs this weekend.

Taylor Swift Considering Legal Action Over AI Art

A post shared by dlordink (@dlordink)

Meanwhile, another piece of media has gotten under Swift’s skin. The singer is considering legal action against the proprietors of a website that published NSFW AI images of her on social media this week. “Whether or not legal action will be taken is being decided. But there is one thing that is clear: these fake AI-generated images are abusive, offensive, exploitative, and done without Taylor’s consent and/or knowledge. These images must be removed from everywhere they exist and should not be promoted by anyone. Taylor’s circle of family and friends are furious, as are her fans obviously. They have the right to be, and every woman should be. The door needs to be shut on this. Legislation needs to be passed to prevent this and laws must be enacted.” a Swift team member told The Daily Mail.

Furthermore, Swifties rallied around the star as the images. Additionally, these images primarily showed Swift in sexual situations with Chiefs fans and players. “PROTECT TAYLOR SWIFT” began trending on X, with the accounts primarily responsible for perpetuating the images swiftly suspended. However, the incident served to highlight the devastating power that current AI image technology has regarding things such as “celebrity deepfakes”.

Travis Kelce: Heart Celly Was For Bills Fans, Not Taylor Swift

January 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Kelce has revealed that his “heart hands” celebration during the Chiefs’ divisional round playoff game was aimed at Bills fans, not Taylor Swift. “The Bills — coming into their house, they want to make it rowdy. Did it get a little disrespectful? One-thousand percent. One-thousand percent. Did it get a little extra? One-thousand percent. Some things were said about the families — some pretty inappropriate things were said about Pat Mahomes. It was pretty wack. I don’t hate you guys like you hate us. It’s all love, baby. It’s all love,” Kelce explained on the New Heights podcast.

The immediate assumption was that the celebration was aimed at Kelce’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift. It’s a gesture Swift herself has popularized at her concerts. Furthermore, Kelce himself was spotted doing the gesture at Swift’s concert in Argentina last year. However, Kelce has now set the record straight and explained he was showing love to the Bills Mafia during a charged playoff game.

Travis Kelce & Chiefs Focus On Ravens

Standing between the Chiefs and a third Super Bowl appearance in the last four years is the white-hot Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens finished the regular season 13-4, their best records since their 14-2 2019 campaign. After massive promises from Lamar Jackson in the pre-season, Baltimore has become one of the hottest teams in the league. However, they are treading relatively new ground. Sunday marks their first conference championship game since their Super Bowl-winning season in 2012.

However, the dynastic Chiefs, fresh off another tough back-and-forth against Buffalo, will be more than ready to take on the gauntlet thrown down by Baltimore. The Ravens are only favored by -3.5 and the over/under of 44.5 indicates that this game could quickly devolve into a defensive slugfest. The Ravens beat the Chiefs in their last meeting back in 2021 but have a 4-7 all-time record against the team. Who are you picking to reach the Super Bowl? Let us know in the comments.

SOURCE SPORTS: Mahomes Beats Allen Again, Sets AFC Title Showdown with Lamar Jackson

January 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Football fans waited for the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills to reignite their rivalry all weekend long. The game did not dissapoint but the result was the same as previous playoff battles: Patrick Mahomes beat Josh allen.

The Chiefs held on to get a 27-24 win after Bills kicker Tyler Bass kicked a game-tying, 44-yard field goal wide right.

KICK IS NO GOOD.

The Bills provided a handful of head scratching plays, including a fake punt attempt to Damar Hamlin in their own territory and Allen missing a wide open Stefon Diggs on their final drive.

“We were within a whisker of tying that game and maybe even taking the lead there against the defending world champs,” McDermott said via Jori Epstein of Yahoo! Sports. “So again, we just didn’t do enough — starting with me — to win this game.”

The game would end with Mahomes in victory formation and sending Bills Mafia home in tears. Mahomes and the Chiefs are going to their sixth straight AFC Title game in a row.

Mahomes and Kelce teamed for two touchdowns, tying Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski for the most by any quarterbacka dn reciever duo in history.

“Patrick and Kelce, with the record that they broke there with Gronk and Tom. I mean, that was a great job there,” head coach Andy Reid said.

Mahomes threw for 215 yards, two touchdowns, and a 131.6 passer rating on 17-of-23 passing, proving a raucous Buffalo crowd could not phrase him.

“We did hear it all week about playing a road game, and we’re here to prove a point and show that we can play anywhere,” Mahomes said.

“I love being at Arrowhead,” Mahomes said. “I love being at Arrowhead and playing in front of that crowd. But when you’re on the road, it’s you versus them. It’s you versus everybody in the stadium, and you have to come together as a team and let guys do that. You saw that in the game today.”

That “you versus everybody” will continue as the Baltimore Ravens are waiting to welcome Mahomes to M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, where the presumed league MVP Lamar Jackson will be waiting.

In their matchup against the Houston Texans, the Ravens were poured by Jackson, who delivered a four touchdown performance, rushing for two and throwing for another two. Jackson finished with 16 completions on 22 attempts for 152 yards and two more touchdowns.

The Ravens blew out the Texans 34-10.

The AFC Title game between the two superpowers will be on Sunday at 2:30 EST on CBS.

Jason Kelce took his shirt off and jumped in the stands with fans when his brother, Travis, and the Kansas City Chiefs took on the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night. He was joined in a suite at the stadium by Taylor Swift and the rest of his family.

After Travis scored a touchdown during the game, the CBS broadcast cut to Jason, who appeared shirtless and banging against the glass of the group’s suite. The Chiefs ended up winning the game by a score of 27-24. Travis finished with 75 yards and two touchdowns.

He later clarified on his podcast with Travis, New Heights, that it wasn’t a final decision. “I don’t know what next year is going to look like with the team. Coaches, players…,” Kelce said. “I just want to make sure everybody knows how much I love and respect and appreciate the effort and energy they put into the year. I know the outcome, Philadelphia, was not acceptable, but I love each and every person in that room.” Check out Jason’s antics during the game below.

Bills Add Taylor Swift-Themed Stadium Food Ahead Of Playoff Game Against The Chiefs

January 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Buffalo Bills intend on welcoming Taylor Swift and the Kansas City Chiefs to Highmark Stadium with a little bit of flair. The Bills, through their food service provider Delaware North, have added two Swift-themed menu items to the available concessions for the game. The first is the Bad Blood Waffle Fries, a “2-foot display of spiced waffle fries featuring each city’s culinary specialty – topped half with Buffalo chicken and blue cheese and half with Kansas City Cattleman’s BBQ pork, cole slaw and bread-and-butter pickles.” The other item is the Karma Quesadilla – “chicken tenders, bacon and cilantro ranch in a triple-stacked quesadilla, topped with pork-belly chaser.”

“Our culinary team has again designed a great menu for the Divisional playoff game this weekend, with several new items for fans as they cheer on the Bills. We had a lot of fun with this week’s menu – adding a few new options that celebrate this incredible rivalry with the Chiefs and their star-studded fans,” said Andy Altomare, Delaware North’s general manager at Highmark Stadium. Other menu items for the game include the Kansas Bowl of Tears BBQ (“A generous portion of mac & cheese, pulled pork, jalapeño, roasted corn, cornbread croutons and pickled red onion”), Boozy Hot Chocolate, and Mulberry Meatballs.

Bills Roast Patrick Mahomes Ahead Of Road Playoff Debut

Meanwhile, the Bills have also addressed the fact that they will be playing host to Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes’ first career road playoff game. “[Mahomes has] only been here once. So he’s never been here. Simple as that. Pat has never been to the Bills stadium in full. … The environment will be different, and not to say it’s in our favor, but stadium is our favor. Stadium is us. That helps us. I care what nobody says. This is the most dopest feeling I’ve ever had. We’re having two back-to-back playoff games home. Come on now, like we get to leave and go eat wings. It’s cool. So good luck,” Bills left tackle Dion Dawkins said.

Not only is this the first road playoff game of Mahomes’ career, but it’s also just his second trip to Buffalo. The Chiefs and Bills met at Orchard Park during the 2020 season. However, they played in front of an open stadium due to COVID restrictions. The teams other five matchups since Mahomes and Josh Allen entered the league have all taken place at Arrowhead Stadium.

Bills Roast Patrick Mahomes Ahead Of First Career Road Playoff Game

January 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Bills had plenty to say about Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes ahead of the teams’ playoff game this weekend. “[Mahomes has] only been here once. So he’s never been here. Simple as that. Pat has never been to the Bills stadium in full. … The environment will be different, and not to say it’s in our favor, but stadium is our favor. Stadium is us. That helps us. I care what nobody says. This is the most dopest feeling I’ve ever had. We’re having two back-to-back playoff games home. Come on now, like we get to leave and go eat wings. It’s cool. So good luck,” Bills left tackle Dion Dawkins said.

Bills Versus Chiefs: What To Know

Both the Bills and Chiefs finished the season 11-6 but in very different ways. The Bills finished on a six-game winning streak, which started with a win over Kansas City. Meanwhile, after starting 7-3, the Chiefs struggled to find a consistent offensive rhythm in the back half of the season. While they appeared to regain their momentum against the short-handed Dolphins in the Wild Card round, the white-hot Bills are going to be a different challenge entirely.

Per ESPN Bet, the Bills are favored by 3. However, defense is expected to be the key factor, with a sub-50 over/under of 45.5. Furthermore, the Bills are 14-2 in home playoff games since 1970, making Highmark Stadium one of the most imposing playoff fortresses in the NFL. Scheduled for Sunday, it’s expected to be another cold game, with temperatures currently projected for around 20 degrees. Furthermore, the Bills have spent the week practicing amid a second lake-effect snowstorm.
