Reputed coach Andy Reid has truly transformed the Kansas City Chiefs into one of the most lethal attacking forces in the NFL. Over the last couple of years, the Chiefs have been terrorizing defenses across the league.

Over the last 3 gameweeks, Patrick Mahomes and Co. have outscored their opponents by a 104-42 margin. They beat the New York jets by a 35-9 scoreline in Week 8.

Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes is having a stellar season in 2020. The 2018 NFL MVP has thrown for over 2,315 yards over the last 8 games with 21 TDs to his name. The Texas-born athlete is now in line to set another record in the league.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, already on the path to greatness

Reddit user u/IceFreezer304 put forth an interesting theory ahead of Sunday’s game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Carolina Panthers. At present, 25-year-old Patrick Mahomes can add yet another laurel to his already impressive CV later this season.

If the Chiefs make their way to a win against the Miami Dolphins in Week 14, then Mahomes will have beaten all the teams in the AFC Conference (apart from the Kansas City Chiefs). He will do so in a record-breaking span of 49 games.

If Mahomes achieves this feat, he will overtake the Dallas Cowboys legend Tony Romo who previously held the record. The former quarterback achieved the same feat in the NFC Conference over the course of 55 games.

Of course, he hadn’t beaten his own team back then, which is a similar scenario that Patrick Mahomes finds himself in.
