1. In the NFL’s Next Great Rivalry, Mahomes is King
NFL fans were treated to the third installment of the modern-day version of ‘Brady vs Manning’ on Monday Night Football. And, as it’s been through the first two episodes of the NFL’s next great rivalry: advantage Mahomes.
Jackson, despite his struggles in Week 3, has a future brighter than just about anyone in the league. The reigning league MVP isn’t going anywhere, even if he wasn’t able to put his best foot forward on the prime time stage.
But even if Jackson’s career is full of highlights and accolades, he’ll still need to work to overcome Mahomes, who has shown time and time again now to be the superior superstar.
Ravens fans, don’t worry. These two teams will meet again. And again. And over and over again for the next 10 to 15 years. Through the regular season, through the playoffs, Jackson will get his chance at revenge.
But, as it stands right now, Patrick Mahomes gets the upper hand.
