Patrick Mahomes vs. Tom Brady: Why the Chiefs QB is on pace to be the GOAT

Patrick Mahomes, the quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, will have the chance to accomplish something that no quarterback in NFL history has done: win three consecutive Super Bowls when he hits the field on Sunday in Super Bowl LIX. Since no club had previously won five Super Bowls in a six-year stretch, the Chiefs' participation in the event is a record in and of itself. Although Kansas City has had a number of important players during this run, like defensive tackle Chris Jones, tight end Travis Kelce, and head coach Andy Reid, to mention a few, Mahomes is the main driver of the team's success. Mahomes was selected in the 2017 NFL Draft by the Chiefs, who used him as their starting quarterback the following season. Mahomes won MVP that season after throwing 50 touchdowns. In addition...

Negotiations stall ahead of shutdown deadline as Democrats slam Trump for subverting spending laws

Washington According to three people with knowledge of the discussions, President Donald Trump's attempts to unilaterally stop funding and reorganize agencies have harmed an already tense push for a bipartisan agreement, which has caused government funding negotiations to stall ahead of a crucial deadline of March 14 to avoid a shutdown. According to the three individuals, the first stage in finalizing any agreement is for congressional leaders from both parties to agree on a top dollar number to spend in the upcoming fiscal year. According to two of them, Trump's recent actions are not the main reason for the lack of progress, but they are a contributing element. Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., the Senate Appropriations Committee's vice chair, told NBC News in a statement that it is very ha...
