Said pre-games it was Mahomes trophy to lose and it would haven taken an exceptional performance by someone else to win it from him. Mahomes wasn’t great, wasn’t MVP.This is why you can't count MVP super bowl awards as a judgment tool for QB's. Maholmes was OK in this super bowl, not great.
MVP was clearly Chris Jones.
For some very odd reason, they give the award to QB's way too often.

Unless a RB goes nuts or someone gets several picks, Super Bowl MVP almost always goes to the QB regardless of how well they played.This is why you can't count MVP super bowl awards as a judgment tool for QB's. Maholmes was OK in this super bowl, not great.

It is quite rare, but Cowboys defensive players have won Super Bowl MVP twice. Harvey Martin and Randy White shared MVP in Super Bowl XII vs Denver.
Chuck Howley won it in a losing effort to Baltimore in Super Bowl V. Can you imagine a defensive player from the losing team winning Super Bowl MVP nowadays?
Chris Jones was the reason KC made 2 D stops to give Maholmes that shot in the first place. He was the bigger difference.Mahomes won it in the 4th quarter bringing them back. He was the difference. . But, yeah, a few other guys have a case.
And Chris Jones was the reason he was able to be great.Mahomes was great in the 4th quarter, where the Chiefs went 21-0.
Chris Jones had several game breaking plays.Really wasnt a clear cut winner. You arent winning it as a defender without a game breaking play. Hill, Watkins or Williams could have won it. I dont hate giving it to Mahomes. His stats werent impressive, but he came up big when he had to
To me Williams the RB should have won it. He scored the lead and clinch TD
In talking sacks, Int's, forced fumbles. Not saying its right, but a D player has to pretty much decide the game to get MVPChris Jones had several game breaking plays.

In the end I'm happy that Garappolo didn't march them down the field to get a TD to win the game when the Chiefs had a 4 point lead.
The cowboys loss to the Niners in " The Catch" game was in my head, and I'm sure would have been the lead story to the effect of
" Niners repeat clutch last minute performance this time in a hard fought Super Bowl Win...."
