Patrick Mahomes Making a Strong Case for NFL’s GOAT Title, Says Teammate Justin Reid
Move over, Tom Brady. There’s a new contender in town for the title of the NFL’s Greatest of All Time (GOAT). Patrick Mahomes, the star quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs, is making a real-deal run at the prestigious honor, according to his teammate Justin Reid. In fact, Reid believes that Mahomes might have already surpassed Brady for the GOAT title.
Reid, a defensive back for the Chiefs, recently spoke to TMZ Sports about Mahomes’ incredible talent and impact on the game. He didn’t hold back in his praise for the young quarterback, stating, “The guy is a Hall of Famer. First ballot. Probably the best player in NFL history. And he just keeps getting better.”
Reid’s admiration for Mahomes comes on the heels of their victory over the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship Game. Reid emphasized that as long as Mahomes is under center, the Chiefs never feel like they’re out of a game. “You can be down 24,” Reid explained, “You can be up 15. Whatever it is — as long as Fifteen has the ball in his hands, you know you’ve got a shot to win.”
While it’s clear that Reid may have some bias as a teammate of Mahomes, his sentiments are not unfounded. Mahomes is on the verge of making his fourth trip to the Super Bowl in just his sixth season as a starter. With two MVP awards and six Pro Bowl honors already to his name, Mahomes has undoubtedly established himself as one of the most talented quarterbacks in NFL history.
If Mahomes were to retire following next week’s big game, he would almost certainly have a bust in Canton within five years. His accomplishments at such a young age are nothing short of remarkable, and he continues to raise the bar for excellence on the field.
Reid also had kind words for his defensive coordinator, Steve Spagnuolo, whom he described as someone who genuinely cares about his players. In fact, Reid has even created “In Spags We Trust” t-shirts to show his support for the coach, with the proceeds going to a good cause.
In addition to discussing Mahomes and his team, Reid also touched on the upcoming Super Bowl matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. It’s clear that he expects a thrilling game in Las Vegas on February 11th.
As Mahomes continues to dominate the NFL and make a strong case for the GOAT title, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to deny his greatness. With each game, he solidifies his place in football history and leaves fans and teammates alike in awe of his talent. Whether or not he ultimately surpasses Tom Brady as the GOAT remains to be seen, but one thing is for certain – Patrick Mahomes is a force to be reckoned with and a player who will be remembered for generations to come.
