    He has a good shot.

    Patriots all over again. We couldn’t even get past that obstacle while having Ben.

    The Chiefs have a chance for the 1st Three Peat. Mahomes will win more. Maybe not 7 like Brady but I believe he will tie him in SB MVP's. Once he got the ball in OT I said its over. The kid is a phenomenal generational player.

    No way they get beyond us in the playoffs over the next five years.
    Hope the chiefs enjoy it. Their last one in a long while.

    Seems like when Mahomes started using his legs that just threw off the whole 49ers defense. That winning TD pass doesn’t get any easier.

    You never know how these things will turn out. 13 years ago when the Steelers lost to Green Bay in the Superbowl, it was thought that Aaron Rodgers would win many more Superbowls in his career but he's never been back. Having said that the combination of Mahomes and Andy Reid is certainly something very special and the sky is the limit for them.

    It's just like JJ Watt said "We're watching greatness, don't get tired of it".

    I never watched Brady play and had as many "Wow! That was a hell of a throw" moments. Some of the ones he didn't complete baffled me on how he was able to be making baseball shortstop type throws with the spiral and power!

    The pass he missed in the endzone earlier was a bullet from the hip, dangerous throw? Yes! Crazy to get it off with that much velocity? Yes!

    It really is, that D is very young...and good. Issue will be being able to keep and pay, then replace those who depart. With Mahomes in his prime it gives them a lot of leeway while trying to find even better weapons. Most drops in the NFL by his receivers and still finds a way to get through the play offs and win the SB. The target gets bigger on your back, but even in this age of FA Reid and Mahomes will still be formidable.

    Agreed, but He still has a lot more SB to win in catching Brady. I mean for instance. Ben from 2005-2010 went to 3. Who thought He would never be back??? Lots of things could happen.

    Marino went in what his rookie or 2nd year and never went back. I think the 3peat for KC is going to be very hard, but doable because of Mahomes and Reid. The 76 Steelers put together a run that was historic, but in the end losing 2 1000 yard backs and and more, there are things you cannot control.

    KC needs to add at least one stud WR. Kelce is getting old, who knows how much he has left. Going to be a big blow to that offense when he is gone. Wouldn’t be surprised to see them draft Bowers.

    Barring injuries and KC able to keep a good core together, yes.

    As i stated barring injuries and keeping a good core of players together. Both will be tough to do,
    Body breaks down, can't sign everybody you would like to sign. He has the Magic to carry a team on his back, just like he did this year.

    If Ben pulled out the middle school mean girl attitude on Mason Rudolph, imagine how he would’ve treated Patrick Mahomes if the Steelers had traded up in the first round to draft him.

    Meanwhile this guy now has two super bowl rings and we drafted him in the 7th round. Chris Oladokun Wonder what the Chiefs see in him?

    We did actually.


    Per this article here, Randy Fichtner eas the only one that headed to Texas Tech that day. As you said though, doubtful that the team could have traded up to 10 from 30. In addition, trading up for Mahomes means no T.J. Watt; leading me to this.


    People REALLY SHOULD give Andy Reid a lot more respect than they are. No one is saying Mahomes isnt a transcendent talent on his own. However, for every great student.. a greater teacher is required. Example?!



    Rod Woodson had Mel Blount.


    Dermonnti Dawson had Mike Webster.


    Hell, even Troy Polamalu had Dick LeBeau.



    Most recently?! For as great as T.J. Watt has been, are we going to discount James Harrisons contributions?!


    If people are looking for league wide examples, DeVante Adams had Jordy Nelson, Bradley Chubb had Von Miller, Fred Warner had DeMeco Ryans and so on.


    Long story short?! Where a prospect lands is just as important as the slot they are picked from. The same can be said for both T.J. Watt and Patrick Mahomes.

    The first round pick for the chiefs in 2017 was 28th at the start,so they trade up to 10 to have Mahomes!...They give up their 28th pick and their first round pick in 2018 and other pick to draft Mahomes
