Mahomes is going to have to deal with 15-hour flights and humidity that feels like a wet blanket. The Chiefs will land, practice once, and then play a game.
They won’t have their fancy Arrowhead Stadium noise. Instead, they will hear a cacophony of vuvuzelas, samba drums, and Portuguese chants.
Imagine Kelce trying to hear the play call over 60,000 people blowing plastic horns. It’s chaos. It’s beautiful.
The Food Factor
You know what the players will be eating? Not barbecue. They will be eating pão de queijo (cheese bread) and açaí bowls.
The team hotels will have to adapt. No more wings and fries. They will have grilled chicken with farofa (toasted cassava flour) and plenty of passion fruit juice.
I am honestly jealous of the training table menu. Brazilian cuisine is top-tier fuel for an offensive line.
