👉 The Upset Project refers to a series of events in 2011 where the San Francisco 49ers, led by quarterback Patrick Mahomes, experienced a dramatic turnaround from being perennial favorites to winning the NFC Championship and ultimately the Super Bowl against the heavily favored New England Patriots. This upset was largely attributed to Mahomes' exceptional performance, including his record-breaking 300-yard passing outing in the Super Bowl, which shattered expectations and captivated fans worldwide. The project highlights the unpredictable nature of sports and the impact of individual talent on the course of a season.
