Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes may still have a long way to go to match Tom Brady’s record in championships won, but he’s already surpassed the legendary quarterback in one remarkable category.
By defeating the Buffalo Bills last Sunday, Mahomes secured his fifth consecutive year with two or more playoff victories. This accomplishment solidified his position as the NFL’s all-time leader in this particular statistic, extending his lead over his peers by an additional two seasons.
For comparison, great quarterbacks like Tom Brady, Brett Favre, and Bart Starr managed to achieve two or more playoff wins in three consecutive postseasons during their illustrious careers.
The incredible success of Patrick Mahomes as a professional athlete is nothing short of astonishing.
In just six seasons as a starter, he has reached the AFC Championship Game every single year, and he is now vying for his fourth appearance in the Super Bowl, which will take place this coming Sunday.
Mahomes has already claimed two championships, two Super Bowl MVP awards, and two regular season MVP honors. Furthermore, he has notably dominated one particular opponent: the unfortunate Buffalo Bills, who have been eliminated from the playoffs by the Kansas City Chiefs in three of the past four seasons.
Patrick Mahomes will have his next opportunity to add to his legacy in the AFC Championship Game, where he and the Chiefs will face the Baltimore Ravens at 3 p.m. ET on Sunday, a matchup that promises to be highly anticipated. This game will be broadcast on CBS.
