Patrick Mahomes recently added another milestone to his already impressive resume. When Tom Brady referred to Mahomes as “a tough guy,” Brady likely knew that one-day comparisons between them would become commonplace. There’s no denying that when people discuss the NFL’s best quarterbacks, the names Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes invariably come up. For many fans, choosing between the two is a challenging task, and it’s not difficult to see why.

When Brady entered the league, he astounded everyone by quickly establishing himself as a young, rising star. Brady succeeded in turning his then-team, the New England Patriots, into a strong and successful franchise. To this day, many people think of the Patriots as “Tom Brady’s team.” A similar phenomenon occurred with Mahomes, in his first game with the Kansas City Chiefs, he secured a victory, leaving his mark as a first-game winner among quarterbacks. Now, it wouldn’t be inaccurate to say that Mahomes is not far behind Brady, as his recent record indicates that he is indeed the young GOAT.

The saga of legends continues…

Tom Brady stands alone as the only player with more than five Super Bowl victories and five MVP titles in the game’s history. Widely acknowledged as the greatest quarterback to grace the sport, Brady boasts three NFL MVP awards, three first-team All-Pro selections, and an impressive 15 Pro Bowl appearance. He’s the fastest quarterback to reach 100 career wins and holds the NFL record for most regular-season touchdowns.

On the contrary, in his first full season as a starter, Patrick Mahomes joined an exclusive club with legends like Peyton Manning and Tom Brady by throwing an impressive 50 passing touchdowns. At just 23 years old, he matched Dan Marino as the youngest to surpass 5,000 passing yards in a single season. Recently, he achieved the record of being the youngest quarterback to defeat all 31 rival teams in just six years of his NFL career. He’s rapidly rising above other seasoned quarterbacks in the league. And it won’t be long before he becomes the face of the NFL, just like Tom Brady is today.
