The Kansas City Chiefs probably didn't expect to get clobbered by the Philadelphia Eagles during Sunday night's Super Bowl in New Orleans.

However, that's exactly what happened as the Eagles trounced the Chiefs for a stunning 40-22 victory.

Superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes was brought back down to Earth during the contest, as the Eagles' defensive line had him under duress for the entire game.

After the loss, Chiefs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins summed up Mahomes' struggles with a very empathetic explanation.

"He's human," Hopkins said (via New York Post Sports) of Mahomes, which is as relatable a reply as one can give.

We all have our down moments, and Mahomes had one of his on Super Bowl Sunday.

Hopkins was right to point out that even the greats aren't perfect, and we're sure Mahomes and Kansas City will brush this one off and be back in the big game one of these days.
