In thе fast-pacеd world of professional football, lеgеnds arе born, and lеgaciеs arе madе. Arguably, one of thе biggest namеs in thе sport today is Patrick Mahomеs. Bеing thе two-timе MVP quartеrback for thе Kansas City Chiеfs, Mahomеs has solidifiеd himsеlf as onе of thе most dominant quartеrbacks of his gеnеration.But at one time, Mahomes was slated to be a part of a different team altogether!

Rеcеntly, Pat McAfее had an intеrеsting takе on Mahomеs’ lеgacy. He sparkеd an intriguing scеnario for thе Chicago Bеars fans to pondеr. What if the 2x MVP had been drafted by the Bears, instead of the Chiefs? Would he have catapulted the Bears to success, like he did with the Chiefs, or would he be pulled down by missing out on the great overwatch of Coach Andy Reid?

Pat McAfee wonders if ‘Mahomes would be Mahomes’ with the Bears

On November 9, 2023, on The Pat McAfee Show live on Thursday, McAfee talked about Mahomes’ legacy while discussing the Chicago Bears. One of McAfee’s co-hosts stated, “If you’re a Bears fan, like they’ll circle that for the next 50 years because that’s a Mahomes draft. And it’s like they could have had him…” That’s when McAfee opened the door to an interesting scenario for fans of the Chicago Bears. To this, the show host could only sarcastically reply, “Yeah, I’m sure Mahomes would be Mahomes if he were in the Bears organization.”

He later amended his statement and softened the blow, saying, “Great players can certainly do things.” The analyst then also added, “Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid together is a tag team.” He firmly stated that he thinks one big reason behind Mahomes’ success is the “Andy Reid oversight of it all.” 

So what if the Chicago Bears had Patrick Mahomes on their team? Even though it is uncertain how well Mahomes would be able to work with the Bears HC Nagy, having a QB like Mahomes would be a dream for them. Mahomes has reached that success thanks to HC Reid, and the QB wholeheartedly accepts it. That is because, for him, Andy Reid is a great coach, and he also told why.

What makes Andy Reid a great coach?

In the last week of October, Former Chiefs QB Alex Smith interviewed Patrick Mahomes and discussed what makes Reid a great coach. Mahomes stated that with the ability to bring the best out of the players, Reid has the fourth-most coaching victories in NFL history (253). The QB commented, “I’ve always said that it’s the way he relates to you as a person. He makes you be the best person that you can be, and like you’re saying, he lets you be you.”

Mahomes continued, “He always says let your personality show, and that’s why I think you can see that he can get any player, and he can fit him into the team, and they can have success. And, like I’m saying, he truly cares about the people. He cares about you as a person more than he cares about you as a player.” And that’s what the QB stated to prove that Reid is a great coach.
