Patrick Mahomes is deadly on the field. When he is at his best, no team is able to play against him. But that doesn’t mean that he can take things easy. If one is not ready at the highest level, it can all come crashing down.

And he wants the Kansas City Chiefs to be ready for the Tennessee Titans. They surely don’t want a repeat of last year’s performance again.
