Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs remain unbeaten in the 2024 NFL season after a stunning victory over the Broncos and his wife Brittany Mahomes had a similar reaction to everyone else after Kansas City secured the win in dramatic circumstances. Denver had a chance to win the game with time expiring as they lined up a field goal. Instead, the special teams blocked it to give the Chiefs a 16-14 win over the Broncos.
She saw her husband and his teammates go to a 9-0 record after it had looked unlikely that they would preserve it. She posted a story on Instagram, writing,
“I mean WUTTT”
Brittany credits Patrick Mahomes’ calmness for his and Chiefs’ success
Patrick Mahomes is expecting his third child with his wife Brittany and his family has been a fixture at all his games this season. So far, nobody supporting the quarterback has left disappointed because they have defeated everyone they have faced. Even when faced with close scores, like in the overtime victory last week against the Buccaneers and this week against the Broncos, Andy Reid has built a team that can eke out wins in tough situations.
As the leader of the team, Patrick Mahomes sets the tone in the locker room. And his wife revealed how he exudes calmness before every game. She said that she is more nervous before attending a game than when he is playing it. As confirmed by her on the Whoop podcast,
“I think I’m a little more nervous every week than he is. He doesn’t get nervous or stressed at all. That’s just what he likes to do. I think he likes going into a new week having new game plans, having new challenges, having new people that he’s playing.”
However, today’s win and many of the Chiefs’ victories this season have come because of how they have played as a team. When the defense has struggled, the offense has stepped up. When Patrick Mahomes has struggled to get going, the defensive side has answered the call. And when they have needed it, the special teams have come clutch in both holding the other team back and scoring themselves.

Brittany Mahomes admitted her surprise at how the Chiefs secured the win today. But perhaps she should not be, because that is what they have been doing for the last three years, which have yielded two consecutive Super Bowl wins for Kansas City.
