Patrick Mahomes reveals his war prep
The QB seems to be going methodically for the way he is prepping for the playoffs in his brief bye week. While speaking to the press, the quarterback revealed two tricks that will help him maintain a balance and give him the edge while playing.
While sitting on the first seed, the Chiefs will either play against the 4th,5th, 6th or 7th seed. Mahomes mentioned he will watch some of their games to keep an eye on his potential opponents. Furthermore, Mahomes talked about his dichotomous strategy and said, “You make sure you stay working out, stay moving around and [don’t] just sit on the couch all week, [but] when we get ready to go next week, I just try to be prepared and ready to roll.”
It seems the quarterback is ready to relax, keep himself healthy, and watch as his opponents make moves. While the idea of resting right before the playoffs seems counterproductive, the quarterback has certainly earned it. The quarterback’s cunning strategies have proven to be very beneficial for the QB.
