As the training camps began, so did the list of records broken. The Kansas City Chiefs’ star quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, certainly didn’t lag behind in that area, dominating the amps, while showing off his peak athleticism. Last Saturday, he achieved a long-yearned-for feat that sparked discussions in the NFL community. Surprisingly, it turns out that a legendary player had done it before it even became popular.

The incredible feat in question is the behind-the-back pass, which the 2x MVP had been working hard to perfect. Finally, on Saturday, he successfully pulled it off, throwing a flawless pass to his WR teammate.

The behind-the-back pass became the talk of the town just a few days ago when the Chiefs released a video of it on their page. The 2x MVP effortlessly passed the ball to his teammate, Skyy Moore, which was recorded in slow-motion. This almost forbidden pass caught everyone’s attention, and the clip gathered almost 3 million views in just two days. But there’s more!

A day later, another video surfaced, showing the same pass being performed. Surprisingly, it was an old video featuring the 1984 MVP, Dan Marino, flawlessly throwing a 40-yard behind-the-back pass that left spectators in awe. The Dolphins legend’s throw reached the end zone with ease, immediately sparking discussions among fans about such an incredible feat. Interestingly, many fans pointed out that Mahomes could do it too in the comments, possibly due to his recent accomplishment.

With a newly improved roster, the 2X MVP is pulling off incredible passes in training camp, entering the season with a new attitude and bringing more strength to the team.

How are the Chiefs looking this season?

The Chiefs are entering the 2023 season better than ever. While the entire league struggles with the running back dilemma, Mahomes’ new rookie RB, Isiah Pacheco, has taken the Chiefs’ kingdom by storm. Additionally, newly recruited WR, Rashee Rice, has shown exceptional performance in the training camps, contributing to a well-balanced offensive roster. RB, Deneric Prince has also impressed the fandom with a dominant display in recent camps.

Mahomes has a lot to watch out for this season, especially with the growing powerhouse in the AFC, the Jets, who now have Aaron Rodgers on their roster. The Bengals and Bills aren’t far behind either, slowly making their way to steal the spotlight and seek the sweet revenge they’ve yearned for in previous seasons.
