On Sunday evening, Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs won their second consecutive Super Bowl and Mahomes was awarded his third career Super Bowl MVP.
He is only the third player in NFL history to accomplish such a feat and immediately after the game, many people were calling him the greatest of all time.
One of the people celebrating Mahomes and his amazing feat was Luka Doncic of the Dallas Mavericks.
Tagging Mahomes on Twitter, Doncic simply tweeted an emoji of a goat, suggesting that the Chiefs quarterback is the greatest of all time.

There were many moments throughout the big game when it looked like the San Francisco 49ers were going to outlast the Chiefs.
The first half of the game was not going well for Kansas City and it has some Chiefs fans nervous.
But Mahomes was able to bring his team back from the brink and led them to a 25-22 overtime victory for the ages.
Doncic was one of the many NBA players watching from home, in awe of the competitive spirit and relentless drive of Mahomes.
The Mavericks star is just 24 years old and has earned quite a few NBA honors, such as being an All-Star five times, and the 2018-19 Rookie of the Year.
But he hasn’t become a champion like Mahomes and he hasn’t been named MVP either.
Therefore, he probably watched the Super Bowl and Mahomes’ performance and felt an even stronger desire to dominate his own league.
The last few weeks have been mixed for Doncic and his team.
After riding high in the Western Conference standings at the start of the season, the Mavericks are now the eighth seed.
They recently made a few adjustments at the trade deadline and Kyrie Irving returned from injury.
Perhaps that means that Doncic might finally get his chance to celebrate a championship win as Mahomes did on Sunday night.
