“Michael Jordan in His Prime”: Patrick Mahomes Wins Another Rare Compliment From NFL Analyst

There is no doubt about the fact that Patrick Mahomes happens to be a generational talent, and the gunslinger has already exhibited his class chasing the GOAT title someday in his career. In fact, he has started drawing comparisons with the NBA legend Michael Jordan. While fans would wonder if it was too early to make predictions, former NFL linebacker Emmanuel Acho doesn’t think so.

The quarterback is just playing in his sixth NFL season and has achieved a lot more than his counterparts would ever dream of in their entire career. He has already won a Super Bowl title with four Pro Bowl selections.

Super Bowl MVP and offensive player of the year awards happen to be his complimentary entitlements during this period. While the rookies and newcomers find it hard to plunge their roots into a franchise, the Chiefs have already secured the passer with a 10-year massive contract keeping him intact for a long-time.

Moreover, with the kind of performance he showcased in recent times, if he continues this streak, no wonder Mahomes could even pull out a Brady-Patriots effect in the coming decade.

The experts and the league veterans have started Mahomes chants, comparing him with the all-time great Michael Jordan. The former linebacker, who currently serves as an analyst, commented in this context.

“As someone who was too young to appreciate Michael Jordan in his prime, I make sure to value every snap Patrick Mahomes plays. What we’re presently witnessing will be iconic history one day.” Acho said while analyzing Mahomes’ games this season.

Indeed, this campaign had been a success for Mahomes, especially after losing star wide receiver Tyreek Hill from the roster. The Chiefs are currently placed at the top of the AFC West with a season record of 6-2.

NFL analysts short of words for Patrick Mahomes

Great players often show up their real potential during difficult times, and experts believe Mahomes is a consistent player and one of the fittest athletes.

Even before Michael Jordan won his six rings, he was a superstar, and coming as a youngster, he stunned everyone on and off the court. His impact was unreal. NFL analyst Chris Broussard feels the same about Mahomes. “People were saying Jordan was the greatest basketball player ever long before he won 6 rings. … Mahomes is Jordan-esque & he has GOAT potential,” Broussard said in an episode of First Things First.

“Mahomes has shown he’s more clutch & shows up in the big moments in ways Rodgers, Manning & Marino haven’t,” he added. It will be interesting to see if Mahomes lives up to the expectations and wins his second career title.
