The 2025 Pro Bowl ratings are out. Among the quarterbacks, the 2023 MVP Lamar Jackson sits atop the list. But there was a surprise as well. Patrick Mahomes, 3 times Super Bowl winner, wasn’t even among the top 5 quarterbacks. It shows the general sentiment among the public. The people aren’t excited about his play anymore.

Jackson is leading not only the quarterbacks, but he has got 44,681 votes, the most among all the players in the voting. However, the Chiefs QB slipping to 7th position is very shocking. Let’s compare the key stats of the top 7 quarterbacks up to week 13 according to their rankings.

That’s how the season is going for the signal callers. But for Patrick Mahomes, his O-line has led him down. The fans might be bored with their winning matches at the last moment or by close margins. It also indicates another change in the perception. People think that the other QBs have performed better than the Chiefs QB. Even by his own standards, his performance has been mediocre.

In passing yards, he sits in the 9th position in the league. Even in the interceptions, he has 3rd most in the league. Only Kirk Cousins (13) and Geno Smith (12) are below him. In the Pro Bowl Rankings, it’s all about the individual performance. Baker Mayfield has the same number of interceptions, but based on his greater pass accuracy, more fans have voted for him.

However, the Chiefs QB understands that his performance hasn’t been top-notch. Though it isn’t that bad either, it’s not where he would have liked.

Patrick Mahomes disappointed with his performance

Even against the Raiders who are struggling at 2-10 this year, the Chiefs managed to win merely by 2 points with final scores 19-17. After the game, the Grim Reaper said, “It’s just missed opportunities at the end of the day. We have to just find ways to execute. I mean, there was one I hit JuJu coming on the cover zero blitz. I mean, I hit Trav, and JuJu was wide open, probably for a touchdown.” That’s it. But he would be ready to silence those who don’t like him.

Last year, before the Super Bowl, NBA legend Stephen Curry favored the 49ers to win, but the Chiefs defeated them. This year too, another legend, Draymond Green has said that they need to improve, otherwise they will lose the first playoff game they would play this season. And now, this ranking has come out.

All these would serve as the fuel for them to prepare hard for the playoffs. They have already qualified for the playoffs. Will there be an upset this season or will they go all the way to create history? We aren’t very far from that stage. Just a few weeks.
