Patrick Mahomes? He’s not just the NFL’s hottest QB; he’s the future GOAT, charging at us faster than a blitzing linebacker. He’s already notched up six W’s for the Kansas City Chiefs this season, building on his Super Bowl legacy from the last two years. And when it comes to breaking records, he’s doing it like it’s a Sunday tradition. He’s not only taken down 31 teams in the league, but he’s now got a fresh record that’s left the legend himself, Tom Brady, in the dust.

Mahomes boasts the highest tally of 400+ yards and 4+ touchdowns in all his career games, including those off-season showdowns. But this neck-and-neck rivalry between the two has sparked the ultimate gridiron debate: Who’s the NFL’s true GOAT? Is it Brady, the seasoned master, or is it Mahomes, the young gun rewriting history? Well, interestingly, the Chiefs’ trusty tight end, Travis Kelce, has opened up the playbook to shed some light on this epic showdown. Let’s huddle up and dive right into it.

When we dive into the Patrick Mahomes vs. Tom Brady debate, Travis Kelce has got a few plays to break down. Talking shop on “Paper Route” podcast by “I AM ATHLETE” with Brandon Marshall, Brandon Flowers, and Ashley Nicole Moss, Kelce laid it out like a touchdown pass, “ I see it every single day. Obviously, I got all the respect for Tom Brady, I wasn’t able to get him in the playoffs. I got all the love and respect for him and he’s the GOAT…the best ever to do it. But right now, the rate that Pat is at, how he’s doing it, it’s a little bit more on Pat than it was on Brady.” 

Kelce didn’t stop there, breaking it down further. He pointed out that when you compare Brady’s early years to where Mahomes stands today, there’s no doubt Mahomes is on a trajectory to keep evolving. Mentally and physically, he’s just got that knack for getting things done, something you don’t see every day in the league.

Kelce even speculated that Mahomes is here for the long haul, and while he might catch up to Brady in terms of accolades and records, those Super Bowl rings in Brady’s trophy case won’t be easy to match. Brady’s got seven Lombardis on his mantlepiece, while Mahomes is rocking two. Could the baby GOAT catch up to the GOAT in the end? Only time will paint that picture.
