Patrick Mahomes is ascending toward glory as a quarterback. This year, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback is acing the franchise and leading them to the playoffs. The athlete achieved every ounce of success at a relatively young age. Recently, a new statistic compared the Grim Reaper with some legendary NFL quarterbacks. But one of them made a relatively strong statement about it.

New statistics showcase that Patrick Mahomes is 572 yards away from surpassing Cardinals legend Kurt Warner’s record. He would become the 10th all-time leader in postseason passing yards. Moreover, the Chiefs’ QB1 is five touchdowns away from surpassing Dan Marino and becoming the 8th all-time in postseason passing TDs. He achieved it all while being just 27 years old.

As the statistic spread like wildfire, Kurt Warner made a response to it. He took to Twitter and said, “Haha… I didn’t start my first GAME until I was 28!!”

However, it does not appear that the former NFL quarterback is upset about it. While responding to a tweet, Kurt Warner said that he was cracking up because Mahomes did everything mentioned above before he ever started a gridiron game. It is safe to say that Patrick Mahomes’ prowess as a quarterback impressed the Hall of Fame quarterback.
