Some consider Patrick Mahomes to be one of the best quarterbacks in the league right now. His fan base certainly has a reason to think so. Mahomes has proven himself twice as a young QB. The Kansas City Chiefs superstar has been able to win 2 Super Bowls. Furthermore, he also went on to win the Finals MVP, making him the best player during the game. However, even after such progress, the quarterback is still criticized.

A few days ago, Cam Newton took to Twitter to talk about who he’d be willing to be a backup for. He seemingly left out Mahomes’ name. With this action, he snubbed Mahomes and his sliding abilities. Further, recently an old player from the Cincinnati Bengals has gone on to compare Joe Burrow and Mahomes.
