The Rise of Patrick Mahomes & KC| Documentary

in the 2016 2017 season Kansas City lost to the Steelers 18-6 in the division round tonight the offense was considered high power with Travis Kelce and young Tyreek Hill but yet they struggled to put out points against Great defenses especially in that game against the Steelers while nobody saw it coming Andy Reid had already made up his mind that he needed a new QB that was more Dynamic and could run off the script plays Andy Reed was considering an offensive genius and if y'all remember correctly he drafted Donovan McNab and signed Michael Vic when he was the Eagles head coach Reed's style of offense works better when he has a dynamic QB with a big arm that can also run around Reed knew that he had to make a change but nobody saw it coming as Alex Smith did turn things around for Kansas City Alex Smith was traded to Kansas City after losing his starting position to Colin kaeri but he quickly turned things around and led them to four playoff runs between 2013 and 2017 their first consecutive division titles in franchise history and their first playoff victory since 1993 in the 2015 season Smith also received three Pro Bowl selections with the Chiefs and led the league in passer rating in 2016 in the 2017 draft the Chiefs had the number 27 pick and all the mock draft stated that they will most likely go for a cornerback or even trade out of the first round for more pick in the second round on draft night Kansas City traded their number 27th overall pick a third round pick and their 2018 first round pick to move up to number 10 this came as a surprise to everybody as the only big names in the draft class were miles Garrett who was drafted at number one and Mitchell trabis who was drafted at number two by Chicago this move didn't make sense to most because the only big name left was DeShaun Watson and nobody saw them drafter at QB because they had Alex Smith as a QB as a surprise to everybody Andy Reid selected Patrick Mahomes with the 10th overall pick and made one of the boldest moves in football history by trading up to pick a QB that was projected to be picked in the second round but Andy didn't want to take that risk as he was afraid that someone else could have seen what he saw in momes Patrick Mahomes born on September 17 1995 in Tyler Texas emerged into the world as The Offspring of sporting Excellence his father Pat

revenge for the 2018 AFC Championship game but also solidify his status as the game's top quarterback and a Potential Threat to Brady's go status however Brady the 43-year-old quarterback vying for his seventh Super Bowl ring outclassed momes dismantling the Kansas City secondary and leading the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to a 31 to9 victory in contrast Mahomes appeared genuinely out of sorts against Tampa Bay's defense failing to score a touchdown for the first time in his professional career the defeat also marked the first time in mahomes's tenure that the Chiefs lost by double- digigit points showcasing the resilience of the Young quarterback I mean yeah I did I mean obviously I didn't play the way I wanted to play um but I mean what else can you say all you can do is leave everything you have on the field and I feel like the guys did that um they were the better team today um they beat us uh uh pretty pretty good uh the worst I think I've been beaten in a long time unfazed by the setback Mahomes returned in 2021 to remind everyone of his prowess despite facing challenges including being among the top five in the NFL in passing yards and touchdowns momes propelled the Chiefs to another division title and earned a trip to the Pro Bowl as the playoffs unfolded the Chiefs once again looked like a Super Bowl favorite with momes throwing for five touchdowns in a firstr victory

overtime Victory against the Buffalo Bills in what was hailed as the game of the year however the chiefs' championship bid ultimately fell short for a second straight year despite entering the AFC Championship game as seven-point favorites against the Cincinnati Bengals the Chiefs squandered an 18-point lead eventually losing in overtime in a rare display Mahomes threw two interceptions in the loss and took the blame on himself emphasizing the need to be better when holding a substantial lead 3 years into his NFL career Patrick Mahomes had not only Vindicated Kansas City's decision to trade up for him but had elevated the franchise to the cusp of Dynasty status he had solidified his position as one of the faces of the game a prototypical dual threat passer and a future Hall of Famer recognizing mahomes's potential for alltime legend status the chief signed him to a historic 10year half a billion dollar contract extension marking a significant investment in the quarterback's future and cementing his place in the team's history with that type of contract it was also hard to resign Tyreek Hill as the wide receiver wanted to be the highest paid receiver in NFL history and as a surprise to everybody Andy Reid refused to offer Tyreek the big bucks and parted ways with the electrifying receiver when this happened everybody in their mama counted the Chiefs out as they were holding Tyreek as the reason for mahomes's Success some writers even said that Mahomes was going to get an expose about Tyreek we've got to admit Kansas City has not even come close to replacing Tyreek they've brought in a bunch of average receivers but still had the big dog Travis Kelce for the past 2 years we've seen a different momes more like momes Brady because we rarely see the 80-yard bomb down the field for a touchdown but we see him manage the game to the wire and then go win it at the end just like Brady did momes as of now has won two rings without Tyreek and has a total of three this is by far the best start in NFL history and it wouldn't be a surprise if he gets to eight rings by the time he retires in my opinion momes is already the greatest of all time what do you think
