You need context for a lot of these plays, too. Some of these aren’t his best highlights (which is crazy), but they were made in the biggest moments you could make them. That’s what makes him the best.
So Mahomes' dad was a pro baseball player which his son also played growing up as well as being in those MLB locker rooms. The idea is this is the reason why he is so good at throwing the ball like he does.
I am a Chiefs fan so this might be biased, but Patrick Mahomes is the best quarterback I’ve ever seen. He can put the ball where ever he wants it and has a cannon of an arm. He also has incredible escapability and can make magical plays! Glad u enjoyed watching some of his best moments❤️💛
Whether he ever manages to tie or exceed Brady's seven championships is irrelevant, Mahomes IS the most talented Quarterback the league has ever seen. Combine his insane physical talent with his work ethic, I.Q, character and drive...the dude is unreal.
I’m a New Yorker and grew up watching Mahomes on the mound with his dad who played pro baseball for NY- and as a kid he was throwing 80+ mile per hour balls like a pro. My dad said “keep your eye on that kid, he’s gonna be a wrecking ball.” And I did just that. I followed him to Texas Tech, watching every football game, and then the Chiefs. And now my little girl loves football because she gets to watch him play!! Full circle. He is a vision of excellence and a competitor like no other. And trust me, he’s just getting started!
The importance of the Wasp play makes it literally 1000x better I’ll never forget jumping so high off my couch I almost hit my ceiling fan. He’s the best to ever do it
I've been watching american football since I was six years old. I've seen (on TV) Y.A.Tittle, Johnny Unitas, Ken Stabler, Joe Montana, and on and on... too many to remember that were really great QBs. There has never been anyone like Patrick Mahomes before, and there probably never will be again.
You are right sir I even misunderstood his brilliance and they are one of my favorite teams he his going to win at least five Superbowls that man is a revelation right there
the brilliance of the jet chip wasp play is that HE called it himself. Not only the execution but the knowledge of the game to make that play-call, and it was THE momentum shift that led to the crazy comeback in the superbowl. you cant ask for a better play. designed and executed BY HIM perfectly in the highest stake moment
Spot on, It was the play that broke SF. After that the gates opened, they were done. After this last SB, Mahomes probably makes Shanahan break out in cold sweats.
Hey, Chatwin! Happy to see you enjoying our American football! You were talking about the way Patrick Mahomes throws a ball and it's really not the way quarterbacks are taught to throw. He doesn't throw that way all the time, but he does it enough to get the job done. As a matter of fact, several coaches hated the way Mahomes throws, and they even called him "undisciplined." Some wouldn't even consider drafting him to their team because of his unorthodox style. But once the coaches and staff saw that Mahomes is winning, they have changed the way they scout for quarterbacks. They now want some of that "Mahomes Magic." (Also, Mahomes played baseball in college, and you can see some of that baseball style in the way he fires off the football.)
The highlights never capture what a moment the wasp play was. It was a really rough half and If that doesn't hit, that's probably a super bowl loss. Magic.
SF was the better team and had devastated the NFC to get to the big dance. SF controlled the first 50 minutes. But 15 was having none of it and he made up for the fact that KC was not the best team on the field. I'd also like to mention the KC defense. Holding them to 20 was an amazing job by the KC defense.
The kid is insanely good, he has broken almost every record in the NFL except the number of superbowls. He has been to 3 superbowls in 5 years and won 2 his win loss record in the NFL is 64-14..... and he has only been in the league for 6 years 5 as a starter ... he's only 27 years old and no where near his prime.... Keep watching this one this is generational talent in the making.
@@nanat2600 yes but that first year he sat behind Alex smith and coached by Nagy greatly influenced him. Without that first throwaway year he might’ve not been able to put up 50/5000 in his first year starting. I’m sure he would’ve taken longer to develop if he was just thrown into the fire like Zach Wilson and other rookies.
And all 5 yrs that mahomes has started they went to the divisional championship lol. Won 3 championships and 2 superbowls, all after Mahomes joined the team
The funny thing is this is just a small sample compared to what he did in the playoffs with a high ankle sprain basically playing on one leg and still beat all of them and it got reinjured in the Super Bowl on top of that. I thought it could be game over cause of it, but he came out in the second half and played like a monster through the limping ad pain going 17/18 in the second half I believe, it's insane, also he did it all without Tyreek. Also in the AFC Championship against the Bengals we lost like4-5 of our main receivers and he did it with basically only MVS, Kelsey and backup WR's.
Mahomes makes it look easy. He really breaks all the rules when it comes to passing. He has a special arm that allows him to get away with doing things coaches tell you never to do. Off his back foot, sidearm, across his body, feet not set it just doesn't matter. Mahomes is a one off. No other quarterback can do the things he does and get away with it. I've been a Chiefs fan for 50 years and Mahomes is a god
To add more context to that jump pass against the Titans...that was Mahomes' first game back from dislocating his kneecap....and he only missed two games! That's an injury that could potentially sideline a player for 6-8 weeks. Not only did he only miss two games, he threw for about 350 yards and 3 TDs against the Titans in that first game back. He partially jumped there to get the ball off and not run into his lineman, but also jumped to protect himself so he wouldn't get crunched at the knees by the rushers with his feet planted in the ground. The level of split second, in the moment processing this dude has is unreal.
He has to win the titles to be the GOAT, but from a talent and skill stand point? Best player I've ever seen play. His ability to successfully do things that are basically against the "quarterback rules" (jump passes, across the body throws, no look throws, weird arm angles, etc.) wreak havoc with defensive schemes. The NFL always adapts with time, but right now Patrick Mahomes is a cheat code against a modern NFL defense.
As a Cheifs fan I wanna give some credit to the charger at 10:04 who stopped right before he got to Mahomes, it's crazy hard to stop your momentum when you,re that big. Go Chiefs!
That clip at about 9:10 against the 49ers I think is still my favorite throw I've seen him make. That game was in his first year starting, week 3 or 4 I think and that was when I knew this guy wasn't a flash in the pan he was and is a bonafide superstar. Man just does things with a football I've never seen other people able to do in the 30 years I've been watching the game and I love most of all that he's my QB! Chiefs Kingdom!
Same. I was at my regular sports bar in Tucson watching that SF game, and on that play while Mahomes was scrambling around in trouble, some old lady sitting next to me (who was one of the KC regulars at that bar, like me) yelled, "throw it away, you moron!" Then BOOM, touchdown. She never asked him to throw it away again.
Love seeing some UK love for Patrick. Went to school with Mahomes at Texas Tech University and all the trick shots and cross-body throws (not to mention the now famous no-look throws) all were practiced and performed against our rival schools in the Big 12 back in 2015-2016 so we all knew he was going to wreck the league before anyone else even the Kansas City faithful I might add! At the time they had Alex Smith as a QB taking them to the playoffs every year so I had to defend his draft selection SO many times in 2017 before he broke records in the following years! Incredible the amount of people he has impacted and touched just a few years removed from school even the University and Arrowhead Stadium at KC have a marketing partnership you will often see the Texas Tech brand imposed on the screens!
At this point, there simply is no legitimate argument that Mahomes is not the the "best" ever. Not to be conflated with accomplishments. Its unlikely Mahomes will get more Superbowls than Brady, and due to his much more athletic style, also unlikely he will eclipse some of those records Brady's holds, due to his longevity. So that GOAT status will be argued for years and years.
@Chris M I respectfully disagree. I do believe he will eclipse everything Brady did, including superbowl wins. I mean really we should be looking at 4 superbowl appearances out of 5 years. We have Ford to thank for that. I mean the game was won if not for him lining up offsides. Likely would have won that superbowl as well. They may have beaten the bucs if he wasn't missing his entire starting online outside of center, which so happened to be the worst player on that online. I know this is all speculation and things did not turn out in his favor in the end. To think he can't win 8 superbowls at this point, is just preposterous. He has a much better and younger online now. He has a nice receivng corps that is young and could develop into something nice this year (KT's health.) The defense is also young and rounding into form. They have added plenty of dbs this year as well just in case some of our sophomores don't take the next step. The defensive line should also be better especially with a new edge opposite Karloftis on pass rushing downs. Even if he doesn't work out, we still have Omenihu who I believe is still getting better, to fill in, plus they may sign another vet edge rusher to help fill the role as well. Either way I'm not too worried about our dline. I expect the defense as a whole to be better this year and create more turnovers this year, which only gives Mahomet more possessions. There is always the outside chance that we add DHop as well. If that happens they are for sure superbowl bound this season. There is no other like Mahomes and he has done what he has done with subpar defenses backing him up. Brady had top 5 defenses backing him up. That's why I think it's crazy to believe Mahomes can't win 8 superbowls. He doesn't take that many hits either because of his scrambling ability. I think he will play a long time in this league. I would be willing to bet that he wins 3 more superbowls in the next 5 years. They are only getting better. The arrow is pointing up for them. Only injuries at this point can derail them. 5 years starting, 5 afc championships is the floor for Mahomes and the Chiefs. They will be there again this year. No doubt in my mind.
@@jamesgarrett5503 I didn't say Mahomes can't match Superbowl wins, I said unlikely. Which is 100% accurate, if you consider that pesky constant, math. I am a complete Chiefs fan, but I am also logical. It is a much more "preposterous" claim, to be more sure of someone winning 8 Superbowls than not. No matter how much blind faith in the unknown you have, you can't say the Chiefs would have won that superbowl, and just count it as a phantom Superbowl win, had Ford not ruined the opportunity. Regarding Mahomes "not taking that many hits", you forget about the ankle (twice), concussion, kneecap from hits, and the turf toe from scrambling. All of those are resulting from a mobile/scrambling QB. The type of hits and situations that Brady was great at avoiding. All that points to a much shorter career. Backed up by, oh, literally all careers stats of every QB ever. Sure, Mahomes could literally be that singular unicorn, to buck that trend. But, to repeat myself, that is _unlikely_ . And that isn't even considering how a serious injury that could derail a whole season, and/or affect his amazing abilities, short or long term.
@Chris M every year there is a favorite and the Chiefs are the favorite again this year. I never gave them a phantom anything. I was merely pointing out that the smallest of details kept him from returning to another superbowl is all I was trying to say. As far as injuries goes. His turf toe, yes of course those things happen to a scrambling qb. The ankle I jury had nothing to do with scrambling. It had to do with OB sucking. Mahomes never even made it out of the pocket. Brady missed an entire season. Any qb can get injured at anytime. Mahomes eludes more pressure than he ever faces. He will have an even better online this year. That's something to take into account. He was injured on the qb sneak. That's just a freak thing. What he doesn't do is get hit more because of being a scrambling qb. He either slides or gets out of bounds. He is a football player, so he is going to take a hit every now and again, going for a first down or a td or something to that affect. His scrambling is what keeps him clean. He's been to 3 bowls in 5 years and hasn't reached his full potential yet. He has a team that is better than any team he has had so far. Who is to say he won't go back to 3 more in the next 5 years. Sometimes, there are acceptions to the rule. Mahomes has clearly shown he is the acception. He has went to 5 consecutive afc championships and you think he can't get to 8 bowls because of the math. I'm sorry but I disagree. There are always outliers outside of the mean. All things point to the chiefs going to another superbowl. They have one of the youngest teams in the league and still won the superbowl playing a bunch of rooks. They had injured wideouts in Schuster and Hardman who were practically nonfactors. Mahomes was also injured himself and they still won it all. Tony and Moore should be better this year. MVS has another year in the system. We added another promising wideout, and plenty more on an already young and blossoming defense. I don't care what the numbers are. When you have something outside the norm then the norm no longer applies. Frankly, I think it's stupid, to not recognize all those factors.
@@jamesgarrett5503 Ok, sure.... its stupid to NOT think someone will do something that no one has ever done in history, and a mere 10 years ago, was considered impossible.... nice logic. I tried to coax you back to a reasonable, logical area.... but you seem intent on confusing what you hope/wish for, and what is likely.
the broncos play where he threw it left handed and the play against the ravens (purple team) were both 4th quarter 4th down plays while the chiefs are down he converted.. makes it even more epic and that last play also 4th quarter down 10 points and 3rd down with 18 yards to go.... he also took seven steps back and still launched it
As a Chiefs fan, of course Mahomes is my favorite player. Now as for all time, it's Barry Sanders. You want a human highlight reel, that's your man right there. What he was able to do behind a mediocre offensive line trumps anything anyone has done in their career
Mahomes is already in that rarified air of top 5 QBs of all time, with only a third of the seasons logged by Tom Brady. Given that he stays healthy, he's destined to become the winningest quarterback in history, and to raise the bar to nearly unreachable heights for generations to come.
Pat never throws an uncatchable ball, unless he's deliberately throwing it away. Getting an interception against him ought to be easy, considering all the risky throws he makes, but his interception ratio is always the lowest in the league. People talk about his arm strength, his accuracy, his elusiveness, but it's his decision making is what sets him apart. He's the smartest QB in the league, bar none.
@@jeffwilliams2828 I doubt it, the calls always go against the Chiefs. They changed the OT rules for the Bills, but when it effected us it was a no-go. The league desperately wants to dethrone Mahomes.
There is still even more greater plays that he has made since the video you watched came out. There wasn't the play on there where it was like he was playing in the backyard, and shot putted a touchdown throw. Try to get an updated video of his greatest plays, and you will be even more impressed.
I live in Kansas and have watched the Chiefs through out my time watching football (there were some breaks lol). But Favre got me into football, I loved his style. Like if I was a QB I'd be the Favre type. There are more differences between the two but the biggest one is Mahomes can be a risk taker and gunslinger just like Favre but it works out more than Favre. When Favre did something like this it was 50-50 or maybe even higher on if it would be intercepted. Mahomes has just been incredible to watch, I've either watched or listened to all but 1 or two since he started. Did not see anything like this happening when they let Smith go. EDIT: Also some of these highlights would be a little more impactful if the video gave info on what game and the situation. Some of these were win or lose situations.
Just think, that was an video of old plays. He's gotten better with even more exciting plays. Tyreek was in there and he got traded 2 seasons ago and didn't even play last season. Check out a more recent vid.
The best part is that the video he watches doesn’t even give the context of his career, which, in 5 seasons starting, can only be rivaled by three other players in the history of the National Football League, each with 15 or more seasons played (one with 23)
Patrick Mahomes makes the ridiculously difficult plays look like he's a man playing with boys. He is just head and shoulders above every other qb of all time.
One thing that should be noted is that in 2022, Mahomes dropped back significantly less on average per snap. You see a lot of these highlights where he drops back a ton to avoid a sack and extend the play, and in the first three seasons of his starting QB career it worked, but in 2021-22 it became harder for him to work against defenses that were able to adapt to that style of play. That was especially evident in the 2022 AFC Championship Game against the Cincinnati Bengals where the Bengals defense made Mahomes struggle to complete passes WAY more in the second half than in the first, which led to them losing a double-digit lead and ultimately losing the game by 3 points in overtime. But losing Tyreek Hill, his best receiver, to a trade to the Miami Dolphins actually made him better at not dropping back so much and making faster reads against a wider receiver ensemble that didn't have so much talent concentrated in one player like with Hill. That's why he was able to beat the Bengals in the 2023 AFC Championship Game despite injuring his ankle a week prior and then win the Super Bowl. The Chiefs are a fantastic team and Mahomes is tons of fun to watch. But you should be excited for the Jaguars next season! They've come a long way. And yes, Trevor Lawrence is their QB :) he's really improved since his rookie season!
Okay I might be a little biased I am a Kansas girl but I'm also Kansas City Chiefs fan and in my opinion know there is no better quarterback than Patrick mahomes he is the goat and if you don't want to call him that now wait 5 more years and you will he is only been in the league for five years he is so humble it is unbelievable and what he does for the Chiefs and his team is amazing but having a good team surrounding him really makes him look even better
Dude look at the pass he throws to her McKinnon, over the shoulder pass, just flips it to him before running out of real estate, best Mahomes trick pass ever.
Patrick has 2 mvps, 2 Super Bowl wins, 50 tds and 5000 yards in a single season, all before he was 28. Most HOF QBs don’t get that kind of success their whole career including dan Marino, Elway, Manning (pick one) Favre, or Brady. On a game for game basis he’s the best of all time. Josh Allen loses sleep to chiefs fans chanting 13 seconds.
A lot of his ability to throw accurately at those odd arm angles is a direct result of the fact that he was an even better baseball player in high school than he was a football player. Pretty sure he was a pitcher I think he also played short stop so he's very good at squaring his shoulders and hitting a target
They say basketball was actually his best sport. For him he was either doing baseball or football. I love all 3, but I'm extremely happy he picked football!!
@Brandon Hinrichs yeah that and he's just a great athlete with elite spacial intelligence. Just another part of why he can incorporate those great throws while on the run as well.
Yeah okay he's a great athlete but a fact is that his body is used to throwing at odd angles often going away from the play because he played shortstop and third base where are you are constantly being asked to make throws to second or first base. And I would suggest it as a quarterback those across this body throws are just as much mind games with the defense as they are elite athletic plays. Nobody expects anybody to run towards the left sideline and then square his shoulders to a receiver who's basically behind him even though he's up field and throw a ball 40 yd downfield and thirty yards behind himself over his right shoulder lol
This video you are watching leaves out a ton of context, makes it hard to appreciate that a lot of these throws were made when those games were hanging in the balance. All of those were from his first two years in the league. Mahomes has refined his game, is better now, and the sheer will to win with all his guys along with him was on full display this last year all the way through to the end of the Super Bowl. You picked a decent team to root for in the Jags. They'll play the Chiefs this September, and may meet again in the playoffs.
I would just like to say, when it comes to mahomes and allen, look the afc champinship a few years ago, im going to find the video and tag the url on here, an absolute gem of a game by both qbs
Spoiler warning: You may see a ton of great QBs make great, super high level throws. But you'll never see another Mahomes. He simply has no comp. The stuff he does had never been seen before in the history of the league.
You ARE CORRECT! YOU UNDERSTAND WHY AMERICAN FOOTBALL, THE NFL, IS SO POPULAR! SO MANY OF THE WORLD'S GREATEST ATHLETES PERFORMING AMAZING ATHLETIC FEATS WITH UNMATCHED SKILL & EXCELLENCE
You made a good observation on Mahomes's throwing technique. The term used in order to describe throwing motion is "mechanics". Analysts and coaches might evaluate a quarterback as "mechanically sound", meaning that his technique is classic and needs little refinement. Mahomes's mechanics are unconventional, to say the least. In the eyes of some stodgy purists, it is a weakness of his game. What they dismiss, is that Mahomes is talented enough, that he doesn't *require* classic mechanical fundamentals in order to throw hard, accurately, and far. Mahomes is actually living testimony that youth athletes should play multiple sports as they develop, rather than specialize from a young age. The way he throws a football, is often typical for a baseball middle infielder. The way he improvises, constantly looking for moving players downfield, is similar to running a transition offense in basketball. I have seen the greatest ever. Mahomes is playing the position better than any of them. He's *THAT* good.
Patrick Mahomes is currently the best ever (individual talent and accomplishments) and might be for awhile. The chiefs run their organization as good as anyone in the NFL (navigating cap and salaries) and will continue to surround him with talent and good coaching. My list of QB talent currently in NFL 1. Mahomes 2. Mahomes (injured) 3. Joe Burrow 4. Jalen Hurts 5. Lamar Jackson (NOT injured lol) 6. Josh Allen 7. Justin Herbert 8. Trevor Lawrence 9. Aaron Rodgers 10. Tua/Goff/Kyler/Fields/Dak (who cares at this point)
awesome to see a european getting excited about american football. Also, the Jags will be a good team to follow, they are young right now so you should have some good years in store!
Talented, has an arm that can do anything, somehow gets out of most tight spots...but the most impressive talent of Patrick Mahomes is his focus. He always knows where he wants to throw, even as he runs forwards, backwards, in circles....with opponents chasing, even on his way down...and apparently the absolutely GOAT for QBs playing with 1 leg! They've shown him in practice making long passes by throwing over his back and hitting the trash can. I've never been that impressed w/Brady. Good QB but his "special" talent is getting refs and the NFL to favor him. And he was weirdly much better when in NE where he had a coach that would cheat for him - like Deflategate. As an aside, another thing to note about Mahomes is that everyone loves him...at least everyone who isn't playing or rooting against him. He goes out of his way to bond with his teammates, he's super involved in his team and the fans, and you won't find him throwing a tantrum when things don't go his way. The only time I've seen him crazy mad was when he was told to come out of the game with his sprain.
The one thing that Brits have on the US is perspective. Whether it's sports, news, or cultural observations, they see things we don't, or we don't notice. The American game of football honed itself from the rugby players of England, which to this day are defined by power, strength, and raw speed. Thank you! 💯
As a football coach and Chiefs fan, if you are learning how to throw a football, DON'T do anything Mahomes does, lol. He's an alien and there are probably 2 or 3 people in the world who can throw a ball like he can.
At 3:00 the stadium is the old Raiders location. It’s called the Oakland Colosseum and was made to be a multipurpose stadium for both the A’s (The baseball team) and the Raiders which is why the field looked so bad. The Raiders have since moved to Las Vegas and now have one of the nicest stadiums in the NFL. The A’s are also expected to leave Oakland for Vegas soon but they will both be in different stadiums in Vegas unlike in Oakland. As for the one at 8:30 that’s just the TV crew adding saturation to show how far the Offense needs to go for a 1st down. Makes it easier to see for some people.
QB coaches before Mahomes: don't throw like that. QB coaches after Mahomes: okay, throw like that. And every father enrolls their child into baseball for a future in football.
Patrick Mahomes father was a MLB pitcher and he grew up playing baseball. If your watch highlights of a shortstop throwing a baseball across the diamond to first base, it would look like many of Mahomes throws on the run. He played shortstop and pitched growing up.
He developed that arm talent by playing baseball. He was a pitcher and shortstop. Shortstop is where he developed all the arm angles. Running to his rear, catching the ball behind him and having to turn and throw while in the air. I honestly believe if you want to be a really great quarterback in the league now you have to cross train to baseball.
It took me a little bit to really believe Mahomes was the real deal, only because of my entire life of being a Chiefs fan, where any time things looked too good to be true, they were. And not only too good to be true, but having my hopes and dreams crushed in some embarrassing fashion. Like the Titans winning by the quarterback throwing a touchdown to himself...
Dude...there are so many painful losses that just hurt to think about... the "Kicker Who Shall Not Be Named" game, the "No Punt" game, the "QB Caught His Own Pass" game, the "Did They Just Beat Us With Field Goals?!?!" game, the "Longest Playoff Game Ever" game (I hesitate to include this because I didn't live through it), and that's just what I can remember off the top of my head. I don't think the Chiefs will be karmically even until they win 2 more Super Bowls. There is so much pain pre-2018. It only took Mahomes 5 years to have more playoff wins than the rest of Chiefs history COMBINED. 55 years surpassed in 5.
Mahomes played baseball in college and was wanted by several pro teams. He opted for football. But he often throws sidearm because that's how you usually throw a baseball.
As a lifelong chiefs fan, mahomes has actually almost ruined football for me, we're so spoiled watching what this guy can do and when i watch other teams play, its just not even fun. The chiefs are so much fun to watch that other teams just cant compete.
Watch his highlights from this season tho. The video you watched doesn’t include any from this past season and he just had an MVP and superbowl winning season
He throws at whatever angle is called for in the moment. Even underhanded, when need be. One day he might just underhand one right between the legs of a defensive lineman and into Kelce's hands. That would be a hoot.
And in addition to all of this talent, he DELIVERS in pressure and clutch situations consistently. It's unreal. Brady is the GOAT but Mahomes is first QB I've ever seen that has a real shot at taking that from him.
You know he's good when you're watching the highlights and thinking of the same number of plays that didnt get included - and obviously there's still a bunch that are more recent that don't get mentioned. And some of the craziest throws he's done didn't even get a TD, like the two in the SB against Tampa (maybe don't react to it, but I highly recommend that you find them). As a fairly recent fan myself, what's great about watching the NFL is that you can make an argument for a number of different QBs being your favourite, especially in the AFC. Its so much more pass oriented now, and that makes a more interesting league. But I just think no one does quite what Pat does on the field and that's why I'll always rate him highest.
Yeah, Mahomes is insane! Best QB I’ve ever seen play. The arm angle he can throw are because of his baseball background (he was drafted in the MLB but decided to stick with football instead). We’re lucky to have him in KC 😁
these highlights are literally from just 2018 and 2019, with 1 play from the superbowl win in feb 2020. he has literally 3 more years of this shit that you havent seen!
Literally just typed to someone about that. They were saying Mahomes couldn't or was unlikely to win 8 superbowls. I said Mahomes has won 2 and could have had up to 4 by now is Ford hadn't lined up offsides and he didn't lose his entire online , including second string they may have beaten the buck. The only starter playing was center Austin Reiter who was straight trash and the weakest link on that online, even among the backups. He also had 20+ ranked defenses versus Tom Bradys top 5 defenses. Mahomes is the better qb and I think it's obvious to see, and he handles pressure, meaning game pressure better than anyone I've ever seen. Why on Earth would anybody think he can't win 8 Superbowls? I think it's absurd to think he can't. He has transcended and changed the game. The league is playing catchup to him and the Chiefs organization. I think the chiefs have a great chance of winning it all this year and the following year.
At 8:30 it actually wasn’t that bad of a defensive scheme. Patrick Mahomes defies every rule of a quarterback when it comes to being out of the pocket. He is so insanely good on the run. And the defensive backs had done a good job with the receivers but Byron Pringle came back for that ball, it was great timing.
PM has a baseball background. That’s why he can pull off the different arm angles when throwing. You’re welcome. 👌🏾 Edit: In agreement with others that this is an old highlight package. There are more up to date highlights available.
I’ll do a video on this past seasons highlights as this video seems to be old highlights
good cause thats not even his best lol And you missed that one of those throws was a no-look pass
A lot better highlights than this video.
You need context for a lot of these plays, too. Some of these aren’t his best highlights (which is crazy), but they were made in the biggest moments you could make them. That’s what makes him the best.
So Mahomes' dad was a pro baseball player which his son also played growing up as well as being in those MLB locker rooms. The idea is this is the reason why he is so good at throwing the ball like he does.
This is his first year starting. That’s it.
Man, this is an older highlight video. He has done so much more amazing things since then :) He's simply the best, it's not even close
Dude...Chiefs Kingdom has been waiting for this for SOOO LONG!!! I follow the NFL more than I should...he's the best I have ever seen!!!
I am a Chiefs fan so this might be biased, but Patrick Mahomes is the best quarterback I’ve ever seen. He can put the ball where ever he wants it and has a cannon of an arm. He also has incredible escapability and can make magical plays! Glad u enjoyed watching some of his best moments❤️💛
Facts!!!!!
@@eovniel yessir!
Whether he ever manages to tie or exceed Brady's seven championships is irrelevant, Mahomes IS the most talented Quarterback the league has ever seen. Combine his insane physical talent with his work ethic, I.Q, character and drive...the dude is unreal.
I honestly feel he is on the mount rushmore of BEST players ever. along with guys like Jim Brown Jerry Rice Lawrence Taylor Barry Saunders
It's not bias. It's facts.
I’m a New Yorker and grew up watching Mahomes on the mound with his dad who played pro baseball for NY- and as a kid he was throwing 80+ mile per hour balls like a pro. My dad said “keep your eye on that kid, he’s gonna be a wrecking ball.” And I did just that. I followed him to Texas Tech, watching every football game, and then the Chiefs. And now my little girl loves football because she gets to watch him play!! Full circle. He is a vision of excellence and a competitor like no other. And trust me, he’s just getting started!
The importance of the Wasp play makes it literally 1000x better I’ll never forget jumping so high off my couch I almost hit my ceiling fan. He’s the best to ever do it
I’ll put it to you like this: he’s done more in 13 seconds than some players have done in 13 years.
And I’m glad he plays for my squad! 😛
I've been watching american football since I was six years old. I've seen (on TV) Y.A.Tittle, Johnny Unitas, Ken Stabler, Joe Montana, and on and on... too many to remember that were really great QBs. There has never been anyone like Patrick Mahomes before, and there probably never will be again.
We as chiefs fans are still shocked we even got someone like this.
You are right sir I even misunderstood his brilliance and they are one of my favorite teams he his going to win at least five Superbowls that man is a revelation right there
the brilliance of the jet chip wasp play is that HE called it himself. Not only the execution but the knowledge of the game to make that play-call, and it was THE momentum shift that led to the crazy comeback in the superbowl. you cant ask for a better play. designed and executed BY HIM perfectly in the highest stake moment
Spot on, It was the play that broke SF. After that the gates opened, they were done. After this last SB, Mahomes probably makes Shanahan break out in cold sweats.
Hey, Chatwin! Happy to see you enjoying our American football! You were talking about the way Patrick Mahomes throws a ball and it's really not the way quarterbacks are taught to throw. He doesn't throw that way all the time, but he does it enough to get the job done. As a matter of fact, several coaches hated the way Mahomes throws, and they even called him "undisciplined." Some wouldn't even consider drafting him to their team because of his unorthodox style. But once the coaches and staff saw that Mahomes is winning, they have changed the way they scout for quarterbacks. They now want some of that "Mahomes Magic." (Also, Mahomes played baseball in college, and you can see some of that baseball style in the way he fires off the football.)
feels great seeing my childhood team be this successful and get all this attention
Give the other QB's all the chance you want... Mahomes is the most talented QB to ever live.

Straight facts 🔥
The highlights never capture what a moment the wasp play was. It was a really rough half and If that doesn't hit, that's probably a super bowl loss. Magic.
SF was the better team and had devastated the NFC to get to the big dance. SF controlled the first 50 minutes. But 15 was having none of it and he made up for the fact that KC was not the best team on the field.
I'd also like to mention the KC defense. Holding them to 20 was an amazing job by the KC defense.
The kid is insanely good, he has broken almost every record in the NFL except the number of superbowls. He has been to 3 superbowls in 5 years and won 2 his win loss record in the NFL is 64-14..... and he has only been in the league for 6 years 5 as a starter ... he's only 27 years old and no where near his prime.... Keep watching this one this is generational talent in the making.
It's really 5 years because he literally only played 1 game, the last game, in his first season.
@@nanat2600 yes but that first year he sat behind Alex smith and coached by Nagy greatly influenced him. Without that first throwaway year he might’ve not been able to put up 50/5000 in his first year starting. I’m sure he would’ve taken longer to develop if he was just thrown into the fire like Zach Wilson and other rookies.
64-16 Regular Season; 11-3 Post Season.
And all 5 yrs that mahomes has started they went to the divisional championship lol. Won 3 championships and 2 superbowls, all after Mahomes joined the team
Accolades aside......if the eye test does not tell you that this is the best QB you've ever seen, you don't know this game.
The funny thing is this is just a small sample compared to what he did in the playoffs with a high ankle sprain basically playing on one leg and still beat all of them and it got reinjured in the Super Bowl on top of that. I thought it could be game over cause of it, but he came out in the second half and played like a monster through the limping ad pain going 17/18 in the second half I believe, it's insane, also he did it all without Tyreek. Also in the AFC Championship against the Bengals we lost like4-5 of our main receivers and he did it with basically only MVS, Kelsey and backup WR's.
My favorite parts are when the announcers say. "He is in trouble" then he manages to throw a TD on the same play xDD
Mahomes makes it look easy. He really breaks all the rules when it comes to passing. He has a special arm that allows him to get away with doing things coaches tell you never to do. Off his back foot, sidearm, across his body, feet not set it just doesn't matter. Mahomes is a one off. No other quarterback can do the things he does and get away with it. I've been a Chiefs fan for 50 years and Mahomes is a god
Nah he just a regular dude that happens to be good at football
AMEN!
Plus his conditioning and pain threshold is off the charts. I don't think he's human. He's some kind of mutant.
@@jamezkpal2361 Mutant LOL
Mahomes is just on another level. I watched him in high school and he was already hitting 60 yard passes with no problem.
To add more context to that jump pass against the Titans...that was Mahomes' first game back from dislocating his kneecap....and he only missed two games! That's an injury that could potentially sideline a player for 6-8 weeks. Not only did he only miss two games, he threw for about 350 yards and 3 TDs against the Titans in that first game back. He partially jumped there to get the ball off and not run into his lineman, but also jumped to protect himself so he wouldn't get crunched at the knees by the rushers with his feet planted in the ground. The level of split second, in the moment processing this dude has is unreal.
Mahomes played baseball in college as well as AF, he was a Pitcher. He was drafted by the Detroit Tigers but chose to go into the NFL draft.
Super talented
@@ChatwinReacts He was a basketball star in High School as well lol.
He also played short stop which is where he gets the diving, off balance skills from.
@@ChatwinReacts His dad was a baseball player, played a decade in the majors
He's a pro level pitcher also, I think the multiple throwing motions from baseball translated exceptionally well to the NFL.
He has to win the titles to be the GOAT, but from a talent and skill stand point? Best player I've ever seen play. His ability to successfully do things that are basically against the "quarterback rules" (jump passes, across the body throws, no look throws, weird arm angles, etc.) wreak havoc with defensive schemes. The NFL always adapts with time, but right now Patrick Mahomes is a cheat code against a modern NFL defense.
As a Cheifs fan I wanna give some credit to the charger at 10:04 who stopped right before he got to Mahomes, it's crazy hard to stop your momentum when you,re that big. Go Chiefs!
What’s even crazier is he makes most of those plays when the game is on the line.
He was a pitcher in baseball and he got drafted to the MLB
That clip at about 9:10 against the 49ers I think is still my favorite throw I've seen him make. That game was in his first year starting, week 3 or 4 I think and that was when I knew this guy wasn't a flash in the pan he was and is a bonafide superstar. Man just does things with a football I've never seen other people able to do in the 30 years I've been watching the game and I love most of all that he's my QB! Chiefs Kingdom!
Same. I was at my regular sports bar in Tucson watching that SF game, and on that play while Mahomes was scrambling around in trouble, some old lady sitting next to me (who was one of the KC regulars at that bar, like me) yelled, "throw it away, you moron!" Then BOOM, touchdown.
She never asked him to throw it away again.
I think that's was the 66 mph throw too
Love seeing some UK love for Patrick. Went to school with Mahomes at Texas Tech University and all the trick shots and cross-body throws (not to mention the now famous no-look throws) all were practiced and performed against our rival schools in the Big 12 back in 2015-2016 so we all knew he was going to wreck the league before anyone else even the Kansas City faithful I might add! At the time they had Alex Smith as a QB taking them to the playoffs every year so I had to defend his draft selection SO many times in 2017 before he broke records in the following years! Incredible the amount of people he has impacted and touched just a few years removed from school even the University and Arrowhead Stadium at KC have a marketing partnership you will often see the Texas Tech brand imposed on the screens!
Ive been watching the nfl for 3 decades. Mahomes is the best quarterback ive ever seen.
At this point, there simply is no legitimate argument that Mahomes is not the the "best" ever. Not to be conflated with accomplishments. Its unlikely Mahomes will get more Superbowls than Brady, and due to his much more athletic style, also unlikely he will eclipse some of those records Brady's holds, due to his longevity. So that GOAT status will be argued for years and years.
@Chris M I respectfully disagree. I do believe he will eclipse everything Brady did, including superbowl wins. I mean really we should be looking at 4 superbowl appearances out of 5 years. We have Ford to thank for that. I mean the game was won if not for him lining up offsides. Likely would have won that superbowl as well. They may have beaten the bucs if he wasn't missing his entire starting online outside of center, which so happened to be the worst player on that online. I know this is all speculation and things did not turn out in his favor in the end. To think he can't win 8 superbowls at this point, is just preposterous. He has a much better and younger online now. He has a nice receivng corps that is young and could develop into something nice this year (KT's health.) The defense is also young and rounding into form. They have added plenty of dbs this year as well just in case some of our sophomores don't take the next step. The defensive line should also be better especially with a new edge opposite Karloftis on pass rushing downs. Even if he doesn't work out, we still have Omenihu who I believe is still getting better, to fill in, plus they may sign another vet edge rusher to help fill the role as well. Either way I'm not too worried about our dline. I expect the defense as a whole to be better this year and create more turnovers this year, which only gives Mahomet more possessions. There is always the outside chance that we add DHop as well. If that happens they are for sure superbowl bound this season. There is no other like Mahomes and he has done what he has done with subpar defenses backing him up. Brady had top 5 defenses backing him up. That's why I think it's crazy to believe Mahomes can't win 8 superbowls. He doesn't take that many hits either because of his scrambling ability. I think he will play a long time in this league. I would be willing to bet that he wins 3 more superbowls in the next 5 years. They are only getting better. The arrow is pointing up for them. Only injuries at this point can derail them. 5 years starting, 5 afc championships is the floor for Mahomes and the Chiefs. They will be there again this year. No doubt in my mind.
@@jamesgarrett5503 I didn't say Mahomes can't match Superbowl wins, I said unlikely. Which is 100% accurate, if you consider that pesky constant, math. I am a complete Chiefs fan, but I am also logical. It is a much more "preposterous" claim, to be more sure of someone winning 8 Superbowls than not. No matter how much blind faith in the unknown you have, you can't say the Chiefs would have won that superbowl, and just count it as a phantom Superbowl win, had Ford not ruined the opportunity.
Regarding Mahomes "not taking that many hits", you forget about the ankle (twice), concussion, kneecap from hits, and the turf toe from scrambling. All of those are resulting from a mobile/scrambling QB. The type of hits and situations that Brady was great at avoiding. All that points to a much shorter career. Backed up by, oh, literally all careers stats of every QB ever.
Sure, Mahomes could literally be that singular unicorn, to buck that trend. But, to repeat myself, that is _unlikely_ .
And that isn't even considering how a serious injury that could derail a whole season, and/or affect his amazing abilities, short or long term.
@Chris M every year there is a favorite and the Chiefs are the favorite again this year. I never gave them a phantom anything. I was merely pointing out that the smallest of details kept him from returning to another superbowl is all I was trying to say. As far as injuries goes. His turf toe, yes of course those things happen to a scrambling qb. The ankle I jury had nothing to do with scrambling. It had to do with OB sucking. Mahomes never even made it out of the pocket. Brady missed an entire season. Any qb can get injured at anytime. Mahomes eludes more pressure than he ever faces. He will have an even better online this year. That's something to take into account. He was injured on the qb sneak. That's just a freak thing. What he doesn't do is get hit more because of being a scrambling qb. He either slides or gets out of bounds. He is a football player, so he is going to take a hit every now and again, going for a first down or a td or something to that affect. His scrambling is what keeps him clean. He's been to 3 bowls in 5 years and hasn't reached his full potential yet. He has a team that is better than any team he has had so far. Who is to say he won't go back to 3 more in the next 5 years. Sometimes, there are acceptions to the rule. Mahomes has clearly shown he is the acception. He has went to 5 consecutive afc championships and you think he can't get to 8 bowls because of the math. I'm sorry but I disagree. There are always outliers outside of the mean. All things point to the chiefs going to another superbowl. They have one of the youngest teams in the league and still won the superbowl playing a bunch of rooks. They had injured wideouts in Schuster and Hardman who were practically nonfactors. Mahomes was also injured himself and they still won it all. Tony and Moore should be better this year. MVS has another year in the system. We added another promising wideout, and plenty more on an already young and blossoming defense. I don't care what the numbers are. When you have something outside the norm then the norm no longer applies. Frankly, I think it's stupid, to not recognize all those factors.
@@jamesgarrett5503 Ok, sure.... its stupid to NOT think someone will do something that no one has ever done in history, and a mere 10 years ago, was considered impossible.... nice logic.
I tried to coax you back to a reasonable, logical area.... but you seem intent on confusing what you hope/wish for, and what is likely.
No one better...no one even close to the whole package honestly...
the broncos play where he threw it left handed and the play against the ravens (purple team) were both 4th quarter 4th down plays while the chiefs are down he converted.. makes it even more epic and that last play also 4th quarter down 10 points and 3rd down with 18 yards to go.... he also took seven steps back and still launched it
As a Chiefs fan, of course Mahomes is my favorite player. Now as for all time, it's Barry Sanders. You want a human highlight reel, that's your man right there. What he was able to do behind a mediocre offensive line trumps anything anyone has done in their career
Those are all old highlights. You should see some of Mahomes from last year!
Mahomes is already in that rarified air of top 5 QBs of all time, with only a third of the seasons logged by Tom Brady. Given that he stays healthy, he's destined to become the winningest quarterback in history, and to raise the bar to nearly unreachable heights for generations to come.
Mahomes highlight reel of dropped passes is better than most QBs entire career highlights
Pat never throws an uncatchable ball, unless he's deliberately throwing it away. Getting an interception against him ought to be easy, considering all the risky throws he makes, but his interception ratio is always the lowest in the league. People talk about his arm strength, his accuracy, his elusiveness, but it's his decision making is what sets him apart. He's the smartest QB in the league, bar none.
Patrick Mahomes is the most talented qb I've ever seen. The only thing standing between him and Tom Brady is five more championships.
Frl w Go Chiefs💛❤️
Maybe Goodell will make another series of game altering rules changes, like he did for Peyton and Brady.
@@jeffwilliams2828 I don't think so. They've done enough damage to the league.
@@jeffwilliams2828 I doubt it, the calls always go against the Chiefs. They changed the OT rules for the Bills, but when it effected us it was a no-go. The league desperately wants to dethrone Mahomes.
@@dalehammers4425 truth!
Best QB I’ve ever witnessed
There is still even more greater plays that he has made since the video you watched came out. There wasn't the play on there where it was like he was playing in the backyard, and shot putted a touchdown throw. Try to get an updated video of his greatest plays, and you will be even more impressed.
I live in Kansas and have watched the Chiefs through out my time watching football (there were some breaks lol). But Favre got me into football, I loved his style. Like if I was a QB I'd be the Favre type. There are more differences between the two but the biggest one is Mahomes can be a risk taker and gunslinger just like Favre but it works out more than Favre. When Favre did something like this it was 50-50 or maybe even higher on if it would be intercepted.
Mahomes has just been incredible to watch, I've either watched or listened to all but 1 or two since he started. Did not see anything like this happening when they let Smith go.
EDIT: Also some of these highlights would be a little more impactful if the video gave info on what game and the situation. Some of these were win or lose situations.
Just think, that was an video of old plays. He's gotten better with even more exciting plays. Tyreek was in there and he got traded 2 seasons ago and didn't even play last season. Check out a more recent vid.
The original no look pass in the ravens game is skill wise the best football play I’ve ever witnessed. Nothing on that play was by accident.
The best part is that the video he watches doesn’t even give the context of his career, which, in 5 seasons starting, can only be rivaled by three other players in the history of the National Football League, each with 15 or more seasons played (one with 23)
Patrick Mahomes makes the ridiculously difficult plays look like he's a man playing with boys. He is just head and shoulders above every other qb of all time.
That was just the first 3 years. There's a lot more like this!
Nobody is better than mahomes. Nobody. He's a unicorn.
Top NFL QBs
1. Patrick Mahomes
2. Everyone Else
Don’t forget-Patrick on one leg is #2. Then everyone else.😁
One thing that should be noted is that in 2022, Mahomes dropped back significantly less on average per snap. You see a lot of these highlights where he drops back a ton to avoid a sack and extend the play, and in the first three seasons of his starting QB career it worked, but in 2021-22 it became harder for him to work against defenses that were able to adapt to that style of play. That was especially evident in the 2022 AFC Championship Game against the Cincinnati Bengals where the Bengals defense made Mahomes struggle to complete passes WAY more in the second half than in the first, which led to them losing a double-digit lead and ultimately losing the game by 3 points in overtime. But losing Tyreek Hill, his best receiver, to a trade to the Miami Dolphins actually made him better at not dropping back so much and making faster reads against a wider receiver ensemble that didn't have so much talent concentrated in one player like with Hill. That's why he was able to beat the Bengals in the 2023 AFC Championship Game despite injuring his ankle a week prior and then win the Super Bowl.
The Chiefs are a fantastic team and Mahomes is tons of fun to watch. But you should be excited for the Jaguars next season! They've come a long way. And yes, Trevor Lawrence is their QB :) he's really improved since his rookie season!
Okay I might be a little biased I am a Kansas girl but I'm also Kansas City Chiefs fan and in my opinion know there is no better quarterback than Patrick mahomes he is the goat and if you don't want to call him that now wait 5 more years and you will he is only been in the league for five years he is so humble it is unbelievable and what he does for the Chiefs and his team is amazing but having a good team surrounding him really makes him look even better
Best player ever.
Dude look at the pass he throws to her McKinnon, over the shoulder pass, just flips it to him before running out of real estate, best Mahomes trick pass ever.
The fact that you called williams and Robinson reliable receivers is all you need to know about Mahomes lol
Patrick has 2 mvps, 2 Super Bowl wins, 50 tds and 5000 yards in a single season, all before he was 28. Most HOF QBs don’t get that kind of success their whole career including dan Marino, Elway, Manning (pick one) Favre, or Brady. On a game for game basis he’s the best of all time. Josh Allen loses sleep to chiefs fans chanting 13 seconds.
A lot of his ability to throw accurately at those odd arm angles is a direct result of the fact that he was an even better baseball player in high school than he was a football player. Pretty sure he was a pitcher I think he also played short stop so he's very good at squaring his shoulders and hitting a target
Short stop...
They say basketball was actually his best sport. For him he was either doing baseball or football. I love all 3, but I'm extremely happy he picked football!!
@@jamesgarrett5503 yeah all those weird are mingles that he throws from that's all a result of playing turning double plays
@Brandon Hinrichs yeah that and he's just a great athlete with elite spacial intelligence. Just another part of why he can incorporate those great throws while on the run as well.
Yeah okay he's a great athlete but a fact is that his body is used to throwing at odd angles often going away from the play because he played shortstop and third base where are you are constantly being asked to make throws to second or first base. And I would suggest it as a quarterback those across this body throws are just as much mind games with the defense as they are elite athletic plays. Nobody expects anybody to run towards the left sideline and then square his shoulders to a receiver who's basically behind him even though he's up field and throw a ball 40 yd downfield and thirty yards behind himself over his right shoulder lol
This video you are watching leaves out a ton of context, makes it hard to appreciate that a lot of these throws were made when those games were hanging in the balance. All of those were from his first two years in the league. Mahomes has refined his game, is better now, and the sheer will to win with all his guys along with him was on full display this last year all the way through to the end of the Super Bowl. You picked a decent team to root for in the Jags. They'll play the Chiefs this September, and may meet again in the playoffs.
You gotta watch Larry Byrd play basketball, he like Patrick MAHOMES has a amazing IQ in the way the play and perform in their sport!
I would just like to say, when it comes to mahomes and allen, look the afc champinship a few years ago, im going to find the video and tag the url on here, an absolute gem of a game by both qbs
ua-cam.com/video/ZyXnCPbK6NI/v-deo.html
There are shortened down versions but this is the NFL one, red tribe cinema has a good one one it
Spoiler warning: You may see a ton of great QBs make great, super high level throws. But you'll never see another Mahomes. He simply has no comp. The stuff he does had never been seen before in the history of the league.
You ARE CORRECT!
YOU UNDERSTAND WHY AMERICAN FOOTBALL, THE NFL,
IS SO POPULAR!
SO MANY OF THE WORLD'S GREATEST ATHLETES PERFORMING AMAZING ATHLETIC FEATS WITH UNMATCHED SKILL & EXCELLENCE
You need context as well. Some of those are big games, big moments. He’s the most impressive/efficient and flashy QB ever
He is him!
Mahomes is this generation's MJ
You made a good observation on Mahomes's throwing technique. The term used in order to describe throwing motion is "mechanics".
Analysts and coaches might evaluate a quarterback as "mechanically sound", meaning that his technique is classic and needs little refinement.
Mahomes's mechanics are unconventional, to say the least. In the eyes of some stodgy purists, it is a weakness of his game. What they dismiss, is that Mahomes is talented enough, that he doesn't *require* classic mechanical fundamentals in order to throw hard, accurately, and far.
Mahomes is actually living testimony that youth athletes should play multiple sports as they develop, rather than specialize from a young age. The way he throws a football, is often typical for a baseball middle infielder. The way he improvises, constantly looking for moving players downfield, is similar to running a transition offense in basketball.
I have seen the greatest ever. Mahomes is playing the position better than any of them. He's *THAT* good.
Lamar scrambles well , but check out Michael Vick . He invented it.
Patrick Mahomes is currently the best ever (individual talent and accomplishments) and might be for awhile. The chiefs run their organization as good as anyone in the NFL (navigating cap and salaries) and will continue to surround him with talent and good coaching.
My list of QB talent currently in NFL
1. Mahomes
2. Mahomes (injured)
3. Joe Burrow
4. Jalen Hurts
5. Lamar Jackson (NOT injured lol)
6. Josh Allen
7. Justin Herbert
8. Trevor Lawrence
9. Aaron Rodgers
10. Tua/Goff/Kyler/Fields/Dak (who cares at this point)
awesome to see a european getting excited about american football. Also, the Jags will be a good team to follow, they are young right now so you should have some good years in store!
Talented, has an arm that can do anything, somehow gets out of most tight spots...but the most impressive talent of Patrick Mahomes is his focus. He always knows where he wants to throw, even as he runs forwards, backwards, in circles....with opponents chasing, even on his way down...and apparently the absolutely GOAT for QBs playing with 1 leg! They've shown him in practice making long passes by throwing over his back and hitting the trash can.
I've never been that impressed w/Brady. Good QB but his "special" talent is getting refs and the NFL to favor him. And he was weirdly much better when in NE where he had a coach that would cheat for him - like Deflategate.
As an aside, another thing to note about Mahomes is that everyone loves him...at least everyone who isn't playing or rooting against him. He goes out of his way to bond with his teammates, he's super involved in his team and the fans, and you won't find him throwing a tantrum when things don't go his way. The only time I've seen him crazy mad was when he was told to come out of the game with his sprain.
Were coming to play in Germany so get ur tickets!!
you wanna see a running qb check out lamar jackson
Or Justin fields
The one thing that Brits have on the US is perspective. Whether it's sports, news, or cultural observations, they see things we don't, or we don't notice. The American game of football honed itself from the rugby players of England, which to this day are defined by power, strength, and raw speed. Thank you! 💯
As a football coach and Chiefs fan, if you are learning how to throw a football, DON'T do anything Mahomes does, lol. He's an alien and there are probably 2 or 3 people in the world who can throw a ball like he can.
This only has two years of plays. There's a lot more out there
You were talking about him throwing the ball at weird arm angles and that's definitely not normal if you watch other quarterbacks.
Let's go Huck! #HBTC
At 3:00 the stadium is the old Raiders location. It’s called the Oakland Colosseum and was made to be a multipurpose stadium for both the A’s (The baseball team) and the Raiders which is why the field looked so bad. The Raiders have since moved to Las Vegas and now have one of the nicest stadiums in the NFL. The A’s are also expected to leave Oakland for Vegas soon but they will both be in different stadiums in Vegas unlike in Oakland.
As for the one at 8:30 that’s just the TV crew adding saturation to show how far the Offense needs to go for a 1st down. Makes it easier to see for some people.
Bro he had multiple plays last years that would push some plays off of this list 😅.
Welcome to Chiefs Kingdom mate! 🎉
QB coaches before Mahomes: don't throw like that.
QB coaches after Mahomes: okay, throw like that.
And every father enrolls their child into baseball for a future in football.
Watch the video of Patrick Mahomes throwing the football out of arrowhead stadium.
Watch the highlights from the Chiefs Bills AFC divisional round, the 13 second game!
Patrick Mahomes father was a MLB pitcher and he grew up playing baseball. If your watch highlights of a shortstop throwing a baseball across the diamond to first base, it would look like many of Mahomes throws on the run. He played shortstop and pitched growing up.
3:00. That was the last football-baseball combination field.
He developed that arm talent by playing baseball. He was a pitcher and shortstop. Shortstop is where he developed all the arm angles. Running to his rear, catching the ball behind him and having to turn and throw while in the air. I honestly believe if you want to be a really great quarterback in the league now you have to cross train to baseball.
PM was a major league baseball pitcher which helps him with his WILD throws
It took me a little bit to really believe Mahomes was the real deal, only because of my entire life of being a Chiefs fan, where any time things looked too good to be true, they were. And not only too good to be true, but having my hopes and dreams crushed in some embarrassing fashion. Like the Titans winning by the quarterback throwing a touchdown to himself...
I was at that game about cried
@@jacedewitte8779 I was there as well.. don't know what was worse the self pass or the forward progress call on the DJ sack.
Dude...there are so many painful losses that just hurt to think about... the "Kicker Who Shall Not Be Named" game, the "No Punt" game, the "QB Caught His Own Pass" game, the "Did They Just Beat Us With Field Goals?!?!" game, the "Longest Playoff Game Ever" game (I hesitate to include this because I didn't live through it), and that's just what I can remember off the top of my head. I don't think the Chiefs will be karmically even until they win 2 more Super Bowls. There is so much pain pre-2018.
It only took Mahomes 5 years to have more playoff wins than the rest of Chiefs history COMBINED. 55 years surpassed in 5.
I was alive during the longest game, albeit only 10, but I remember hearing it on the radio and how upset my dad was when it was over
I was a believer by game number 3 in 2018. The eye test just made it obvious this was no fluke.
Mahomes is definitely the Goat 🐐 when it comes to QB … Brady just has more team SuperBowl wins
Mahomes is just next level quarterbacking. All the others you could watch are really freaking amazing, but he is just that much better.
yeah i can see that, i havnt seen to much nfl but that has been my main take away so far he is the top dog
Mahomes played baseball in college and was wanted by several pro teams. He opted for football. But he often throws sidearm because that's how you usually throw a baseball.
As a lifelong chiefs fan, mahomes has actually almost ruined football for me, we're so spoiled watching what this guy can do and when i watch other teams play, its just not even fun. The chiefs are so much fun to watch that other teams just cant compete.
Watch his highlights from this season tho. The video you watched doesn’t include any from this past season and he just had an MVP and superbowl winning season
Check anyone you want out, but you’ll never see anyone like Mahomes 🤴🏽
most people throw it over your shoulder like you were doing. patrick mahomes does the same but he also does what everyone calls a "side-arm" throw.
His dad was an MLB pitcher, just to add-on
@@shortbu5drivermahomes was almost a mlb pitcher as well
He throws at whatever angle is called for in the moment. Even underhanded, when need be. One day he might just underhand one right between the legs of a defensive lineman and into Kelce's hands. That would be a hoot.
Brady did it forever. Mahomes is already HOF.
And in addition to all of this talent, he DELIVERS in pressure and clutch situations consistently. It's unreal. Brady is the GOAT but Mahomes is first QB I've ever seen that has a real shot at taking that from him.
You know he's good when you're watching the highlights and thinking of the same number of plays that didnt get included - and obviously there's still a bunch that are more recent that don't get mentioned. And some of the craziest throws he's done didn't even get a TD, like the two in the SB against Tampa (maybe don't react to it, but I highly recommend that you find them).
As a fairly recent fan myself, what's great about watching the NFL is that you can make an argument for a number of different QBs being your favourite, especially in the AFC. Its so much more pass oriented now, and that makes a more interesting league. But I just think no one does quite what Pat does on the field and that's why I'll always rate him highest.
Yeah, Mahomes is insane! Best QB I’ve ever seen play. The arm angle he can throw are because of his baseball background (he was drafted in the MLB but decided to stick with football instead). We’re lucky to have him in KC 😁
it's crazy that this highlights real is missing another 2 years of highlights
these highlights are literally from just 2018 and 2019, with 1 play from the superbowl win in feb 2020. he has literally 3 more years of this shit that you havent seen!
The only impressive thing about Tom Brady, is all the great defenses he played with to win 7 Super Bowls.
Literally just typed to someone about that. They were saying Mahomes couldn't or was unlikely to win 8 superbowls. I said Mahomes has won 2 and could have had up to 4 by now is Ford hadn't lined up offsides and he didn't lose his entire online , including second string they may have beaten the buck. The only starter playing was center Austin Reiter who was straight trash and the weakest link on that online, even among the backups. He also had 20+ ranked defenses versus Tom Bradys top 5 defenses. Mahomes is the better qb and I think it's obvious to see, and he handles pressure, meaning game pressure better than anyone I've ever seen. Why on Earth would anybody think he can't win 8 Superbowls? I think it's absurd to think he can't. He has transcended and changed the game. The league is playing catchup to him and the Chiefs organization. I think the chiefs have a great chance of winning it all this year and the following year.
At 8:30 it actually wasn’t that bad of a defensive scheme. Patrick Mahomes defies every rule of a quarterback when it comes to being out of the pocket. He is so insanely good on the run. And the defensive backs had done a good job with the receivers but Byron Pringle came back for that ball, it was great timing.
PM has a baseball background. That’s why he can pull off the different arm angles when throwing. You’re welcome. 👌🏾
Edit: In agreement with others that this is an old highlight package. There are more up to date highlights available.
If you decide to be a jags fan they play two games in London back to back weeks. You should go to one, but I don’t know how expensive it will be
