Maxx Crosby is a huge rival of Patrick Mahomes.

So when Mahomes drove the Kansas City Chiefs across the field to win Super Bowl LVIII in the final seconds of overtime, it's safe to say that Crosby wasn't the world's biggest fan of Mahomes' team becoming back-to-back world champs.

Behind-the-scenes footage revealed Crosby, a star defender for the Las Vegas Raiders, watching the end of the Super Bowl in a swanky room surrounded by friends.

At the start of the video, Crosby is seen staring at a nearby TV screen and anticipating what would soon become the final play of a thrilling Super Bowl.

As Mahomes receives the snap and rolls right, the group around Crosby begins to cheer and buzz with anticipation.

When Mahomes finds an open target near the end zone, someone points toward the screen in an effort to help the QB connect for a TD.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom," the apparent Chiefs fan said. "Get it to him!"

Glasses clink and shouting starts, as Kansas City scores a game-winning TD that gave the Chiefs a dynasty.

All Crosby does is coldly stare.

With the camera pointed directly at the fierce Raiders rusher, Mahomes' biggest rival shares a hard glare with the person filming the surreal moment.

Crosby looks like he wants to get back on the field immediately to face the Chiefs and sack Mahomes.

"When it's between the quarters, he (Mahomes) knows what time it is," Crosby previously said. "And I know what time it is when he's out there."

After winning the Super Bowl, Mahomes said that Crosby is the toughest defender he's ever faced.

The rivalry between the Chiefs quarterback and Raiders defensive end was highlighted in Season One of Netflix's fascinating Quarterback documentary, which provided an inside look at their intense but respectful battle.

"I was messing with him a little bit, pushing him on the shoulder after the ball was gone, just trying to mess with him to see how he would react," Crosby . "He started getting irritated. He bumped me, and I'm like, 'What's up?' And I walked right up to him and he started walking at me.

"My immediate, just natural human reaction, somebody is walking at me, I'm hitting first. So I headbutted him."
