Mahomes started as a backup quarterback, waiting for his turn, even when top media outlets like ESPN labeled him a 3-star player. His Big 12 freshman record for the most passing yards and touchdowns in a game, with 598 and 6, launched him to the National scene as a sophomore. While nobody could’ve predicted the future of a 10th-place NFL draft pick, the Chief’s belief in him paid off in abundance as he famously threw for 50 touchdowns in the 2018 season, earning him the NFL MVP award. Mahomes already holds multiple records, going head-to-head with Tom Brady at 28 and having 3 Super Bowls in his cabinet. It begs the question: Can he retire as the greatest footballer of all time?

Defying doubters and cementing a legacy of his own

Since joining the Chiefs in 2017, Mahomes has shattered records and silenced the doubters, solidifying his status as the best quarterback ever. With his uncanny ability to make under-pressure plays, he has often led his team to victories, becoming a beacon of hope and achieving cult-like status amongst the fan groups.

Teammates have often described his play style as a redefinition of what it means to play as a quarterback. Having formed a formidable partnership with Travis Kelce, he has recently affirmed his aim at going for the Super Bowl again next season. As Mahomes’ impact on the game continues to be undeniable, do you think he can achieve this new three-peat? Let us know in the comments below.
