The Many Victims of Patrick Mahomes

Patrick Mahomes is without a doubt the best quarterback in the NFL right now and usually in sports when someone is the best at a certain position they're going to have victims not criminal victims but players that can't seem to beat them consistently or just keep getting their dreams crushed Time and Time Again by that one certain player today that player is Patrick Mahomes and we're covering the main guys that can't seem to figure him out and win what is it about that kind of matchup that you really like what is it about against him that you really like I don't like competing against him at all let's start off today with Action Jackson Lamar Jackson in the Baltimore Ravens you're probably sitting here thinking how in the world is this unanimous MVP from 2019 a victim of Patrick Mahomes well let's start in week three of the 2019 season and see if we can't notice a pattern so we started off hot for the Ravens in this game The Run game was absolutely cooking not just the running backs but also Lamar on the the ground and before we continue these are two completely different teams in terms of style of football that they want to play and it's always been that way since these two quarterbacks have gone at it the Ravens want to run the ball down your throat while the Chiefs might only run the ball 10 total times in the game regardless Baltimore looked great to start off this game and fans might have been getting a little bit too excited watching them take the lead early but of course this would not last Mahomes had Kelsey to lean on during this game Demarcus Robinson made a spectac ular catch in the end zone and micle Hardman was doing his part as well stepping up huge but on the opposite side of the ball you had Lamar Jackson backpacking the team nobody was getting open in this game he did everything he could in this one with his legs and even made an unbelievable cross body throw to Willie sne towards the end of this game but that didn't matter because Mahomes just simply outclassed him you could try and blame it on the fact that Lamar had less weapons but was that even really true in this game Tyreek was hurt and didn't play in this one so you had Mark Andrews Hollywood Brown and Willie sne on the Ravens against Travis Kelce micle Hardman and Samy Watkins on the Chiefs I think you have to give this one to momes and it was simply an experience difference in my eyes that one extra year that momes had on Jackson made a huge difference and don't forget 2019 was the year that Lamar won MVP fast forward now to week number two of the 2021 season Lamar would get the better of momes here for the only time in his young career up to this point and even though they won this game there were still some glaring issues at hand Jackson started off this game by throwing a pick six and then later in the game he forced a throw into triple coverage for his second interception the difference here is that momes made the smarter throws the smarter decisions overall that is up until he didn't three man rush and there comes the fourth late and the pass is p this was a costly mistake for momes and one that he's not known for doing often Lamar was once again carrying the Ravens with his legs and doing everything he could to pull out this win but the Chiefs still should have won this game at the end of the day Clyde Edwards aair made a huge mistake fumbling the ball inside field goal range during the chief's final drive that most likely would have won them the game Lamar winning this game meant a lot for him though and he played his hard out so you got to give him a lot of credit you could tell he made some massive strides since their first meeting in 2019 but momes would get the last laugh in this situation this most recent AFC Championship in the 2023 to 24 season is a perfect example it was far from pretty but those quarterbacks were in a battle Lamar was catching his own passes over here Mahomes was dotting up Kelce In The End Zone back shoulder But ultimately Z flowers played a huge role in the Ravens losing this game with the fumble on the goal line and the taunting penalty but at the the same time he kept them in the game in the first place by getting open and having a long touchdown early on towards the end of the game Lamar once again showed his inexperience in the big situation forcing another pass into triple coverage when they were driving down field and they had a solid chance at making this comeback and winning the game that has been the main difference so far between momes and Jackson up to this point Mahomes has been in those big moments and a lot of them and he steps up to deliver almost every single time while Jackson just has not I will say one thing though when the Chiefs and Ravens play it's almost always a good game and there aren't many fights you can't say the same about our next victim Max Crosby and the Raiders Crosby is the only player in this video that plays defense which might not seem like a big deal at the moment but he clearly doesn't have as much leverage over A team's overall success as an opposing quarterback might have you can only do so much for the Raiders defense and with all all that being said he is still Patrick Mahomes main victim on this team let's pick it up with our first example week number 10 of the 2021 season I know I put Max Crosby on here but this was an offensive Master Class by momes that the entire Raiders defense just couldn't stop to sum it up for you without playing the entire game Tyreek Hill went crazy and Travis Kelce was just being Travis Kelce the outlier here Was Daryl Williams the running back at the time and I wasn't kidding when I said the Chiefs don't like to run on the ball earlier this was a game that they were winning almost the entire time and the starting running back still only had 11 carries but he did catch nine passes for 101 yards and this play right here sums up the Raiders Knight on defense perfectly the really depressing part about the Raiders efforts to stop Mahomes during this game was that they didn't even get one Sack or an interception there was just nothing they could do and Patrick ended up throwing for five touchdowns on that night now that's pretty bad right but on the famous night in 2022 Max Crosby woke up the beast in Mahomes which was pretty funny looking back on things I mean the Raiders pulled out to a 17 to zero lead early in the second quarter and you could tell the Chiefs weren't fully focused at that point in time that the Raiders had a real chance of winning that game but Mahomes turned on a switch and that fight broke out after they came back to eventually Take the Lead late in the third quarter 23 to 20 that turned into a meme pretty quickly once the fight was released as a part of the quarter back Netflix documentary where you can see momes saying I'm here I'm here over and over while Andy Reid is trying to calm him down by this point that's too late Andy all right you can't contain this man he's going crazy out here Mahomes finished that game off with 292 yards four touchdowns along with zero interceptions but Crosby did play his part in this game I have to give him that two sacks and four total tackles it wasn't enough to beat the Chiefs though and we have to classify Crosby as a victim here because you can't can't Trash Talk Patrick Mahomes and then lose the game you can't Trash Talk anybody like that and then lose the game now the same can't be said about our next victim Justin Herbert and the Chargers oh hold on Justin Herbert's uh calling my phone right now he wants to tell me something oh he said to uh make sure you guys subscribe to Fantasy phenoms okay yeah that that makes sense Justin thanks since early in the 2021 season Herbert just cannot beat momes for some reason it's been known that if you watch the NFL on a regular basis the Chargers just can't win close games since 2021 I would be shocked if the Chargers haven't lost the most amount of one- score games out of any team in the entire league meaning they lost by a touchdown or less that's a very painful Trend to be a part of if you're a Chargers fan and our first example in week 15 of the 2021 season perfectly captures that feeling this game started out just as heartbreaking as it ended for Chargers fans they were at the 5y yard line on Third and goal first it was Mike Williams who couldn't come up with the catch and get them into the end zone and then Donald Parham had the ball in his hands on fourth down only to smash his head off the ground give himself a concussion and drop the pass turning the ball over on Downs for them this play right here though with about 30 seconds left if this throw to Keenan Allen is not out of bounds I think they win this game if Justin Herbert gives Keenan Allen a shot to catch this ball I believe he does and they win this game that is the story of every Justin Herbert game against the Chiefs the chances are there but the capitalization is not and don't get me started on that defense I mean week 11 in the 2022 season Chargers are up 27 to 23 with less than 2 minutes left in the game Herbert is having a great game two passing touchdowns 280 yards and they have the lead for a good portion of these games the ball just always ends up in mom M's hands towards the end with way too much time left and the defense can't do anything about it then by the time Herbert has the ball back in his hands there's less than 30 seconds and he has to do something that very few quarterbacks can pull off consistently it just so happens the guy he's going against does that extremely well and extremely often to the point where it's almost expected you're in a situation where you either get justtin Herbert or Patrick Mahomes in the clutch nobody's picking Justin Herbert right now I don't care if you're the big biggest Chargers fan in the world there is just no way that you're picking Justin Herbert over Patrick Mahomes therefore Justin Herbert is victim number three and I could move on to Mahomes biggest victim right now but first I want to give an honorable mention to the entire Denver Broncos team cuz Mahomes has a record of 12- one against them throughout his career that one loss just happened the last time they met too so the tide could be turning here but I highly doubt it by far in my eyes the biggest victim of Patrick Mahomes is none other than Josh Allen in the bills and it's in the worst way possible every single time knocking them out of the playoffs Josh Allen as you probably know if you watch football regularly is one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL there's no denying that the reason you don't hear people making the argument that Josh Allen is better than momes is that he can't beat him in the playoffs plain and simple let's start with the AFC Championship game in the 2020 to 21 season the bills started off this game hot but then they f fell completely flat after their 9 to Zer start in the first quarter they were getting into field goal range just kept having to settle for three points instead of six which was a huge problem at the end of the day for them on the other side of the ball momes and the chiefs were doing the exact opposite cashing in on their opportunities at least coming away with some points almost every single time down the field 325 passing yards and three touchdowns for Mahomes compared to Allen's 287 yards two touchdowns and one intercep reception to keep it a buck with you guys this game was never really too close and it didn't feel close the majority of the game this was certainly not the case though the next time that these two teams met in the playoffs ask Rex you're 59 years old have you ever seen anything like that no and I've been a fan of this game forever and coached it for 30 years never ever in my life have I seen a better game January 23rd 2022 AFC divisional round game basically set the tone up until this point in time in 2024 Josh Allen played an incredible game Gabe Davis played an incredible game but at the end of the day all that really matters is who came out on top the Chiefs got the ball in overtime first and Bill's fans were outraged about how this game ended up playing out this game sparked the rule chain where both teams now get to touch the ball in overtime in the playoffs Mahomes finished that game with 378 yards for total touch touchdowns and zero turnovers we're talking about a guy here that knows how to take care of the football in the clutch extremely well and this most recent divisional round matchup in 2024 between the two was yet another chance for Allen and the bills to take down momes lucky number three at least you would hope and I got to give the bills some major credit here they were sticking around with the lead even though this was probably the best Chiefs team defensively that we have seen over the past couple of seasons I mean the Chiefs would always outscore you with their offense in the past but this season was a bit different I know Mahomes has really turned it up in the postseason so far just a couple of weeks ago though the defense was carrying this team hard so for Allen to be leading the bills out there was definitely promising to see the main reason momes was so good in this game though was his usage of scrambling specifically this one play where he fakes out a Defender and runs up the sideline for about 30 or so yards those types of plays are extremely hard to teach and not anybody can do it Josh Allen however was not done though he was not ready to let Mahomes take another win out from under his belt beautiful play to Shakir gave them a 24 to20 lead and it was looking like this would finally be the year where Allan out du momes that is just until a few minutes later when Isaiah Pacho scored now the bills are in a Mak or break situation here 5 and 1/2 minutes on the clock when Josh Allen makes a huge mistake that almost cost the bills this game thankfully they got another chance and made it into field goal range let me just remind you up to this point Mahomes once again doesn't have a turnover on the biggest stages of them all Allen hasn't turned the ball over either in this one finally playing the game that every Bills fan needed him to up to this point it's 27 to 24 and Tyler bass is about to tie the game with a field goal 44 yd pass no he doesn't make it even when Josh Allen does everything right momes still comes out with the win now people are going to have many different things to say the penalties the no calls whatever the case might be mommes just cannot be beat consistently on the biggest stages so it begs the huge question will the 49ers become mom's next victim or do they finally beat him when it matters most
