Patriots legend tom brady is still the most popular quarterback in the nfl, according to patrick Mahomes.
On “the pat McAfee’s show,” mahomes vehemently stated that he still believes brady to be the best passer in nfl history, and that it would do little to dampen the NFL offseason’s most popular talking point. “i like being compared to him, but if you look at his longevity, the consistent greatness he had every single year,” Mahomes said, “he is the greatest of all time.” “all i can do is just try to be the best me every single day that i have,” says Mahomes, who is coming off his third super bowl victory, winning MVP honors as his kansas city chiefs beat the san francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime.
Mahomes was in a rare position on super sunday, as he joined brady, Troy Aikman, Terry Bradshaw, and joe montana as the only quarterbacks to have three victories. If not for brady, mahomes could have five rings if he wasn’t there: his patriots defeated kansas city in mahomes’ first season at the offensive helm, and he later defended his newly discovered south floridian turf with a 31-9 victory in super bowl Lv as a member of the tampa bay buccaneers.
On the 24-hour news cycle, countless seconds have been dedicated to comparing brady’s and mahomes’ careers. Both men were inducted into the super bowl by the time they were 28 years old, and mahomes’ chiefs seem to be well positioned to take it back with his trusted advisors like travis kelce and isiah pacheco.
For all he accomplished, brady’s journey to the NFL’s first three-peat was too difficult, though it wasn’t for a lack of trying.mahomes told mcafee that he wants to channel brady as he prepares to embark on a pressure-packed journey to no. x …… “i actually heard tom say this a while back, and that was just to be the best version of tom brady he could be,” Mahomes said. “all the other stuff just happens.” If you continue to train hard and continue to find great teammates around you, all of this stuff comes with it. “i’ve been blessed, gent.” “it’s a joke,” he said.
