Patrick Mahomes Fires Back at Criticism Received By Likes of Kyler Murray, Lamar Jackson & The Superman From Kansas City Chiefs

The quarterbacks have considerable significance in every NFL franchise. Many of them rose to glory after their efforts in the league. However, Mike Sando’s recent QB rankings had anonymous voters give their objections over certain play-callers. Even Patrick Mahomes was in the critical range after the ‘streetball’ comments. But the Chiefs QB is now firing back on the selective judgment over specific QBs.

Patrick Mahomes is a prominent NFL personality. But some anonymous comments on his QB skills got attention during the training camp. An undisclosed league DC points out a glaring flaw in Mahomes’ plays. Even Lamar Jackson and Kyler Murray became a point of target in the rankings list. The Chiefs QB took notice and does not look happy about it.

KSHB’s Aaron Ladd asks Patrick Mahomes if he is unfairly assessed as a black quarterback during the Chiefs’ training camp media scrum. Mahomes does not impose the same, but it intrigued him as only Black quarterbacks face scrutiny.

Mahomes mentions, “Obviously, the Black quarterback has had to battle to be in this position that we are to have this many guys in the league playing. I think every day, we’re proving that we should have been playing the whole time… It’s always weird when you see guys like me, Lamar [Jackson], Kyler [Murray] kind of get that on them when other guys don’t. But at the same time, we’re going out there to prove ourselves every day to show we can be some of the best quarterbacks in the league.”

The Kansas City Chiefs QB still feels the critique just makes it more cutthroat, and he has plenty to prove.

Coach Andy Reid disparages Patrick Mahomes’ streetball play remark

Mike Sando and his QB tiers spark a new debate over Patrick Mahomes. A veteran defensive coach kept the Chiefs quarterback in Tier 2 and provided some constructive criticism on his plays. While the Anonymous DC has his concerns, Coach Andy Reid calls it downright rubbish.

In response to the streetball criticism, Reid claims many coaches must teach their players how to move out and call plays. Mahomes just does it. He’s fantastic. Count the number of times he strikes the second receiver. Patrick’s records are inevitable — the QB led the Chiefs to a pair of Super Bowls, won a Lombardi, and was also the game MVP. He has some big plays left inside and could shut the naysayers with his performance.
