Welp, then we need JHurts to channel his inner Isiah Thomas for this game.

He’s LeBron + MJ. And if he has half the success he’s had in next 10 years, he’ll be LBJ + MJ + TB.

Ummmmmmmmm

fookerton.bsky.social•51 days ago

it's hard enough to rank football players against other football players given how much the game's evolved over the past century+

nywiz.bsky.social•51 days ago

Michael Jordan
Tiger Woods
Lewis Hamilton
Lionel Messi

This is the list!!

———————————

There is no way on planet Earth you would put Tom Brady on this list .. just like you wouldn’t put Bill Russell, Emmett Smith or LeBron James!!

SINGLE SPORT ATHLETES can NEVER be in the "greatest athlete" conversations.

Let's see Mahomes play baseball while being an Olympic decathlete and pentathlete! Let's see him play while it's his third best sport. Or his second best

Jim Thorpe, Jackie Robinson, and Jim Brown respectively

True, but QB is about as close as you can get to being a single-player difference maker.

johncastiglione.bsky.social•51 days ago

Clickbait everyone!

jukesgrrl.bsky.social•51 days ago

This is a serious question: Is Mahomes ever drug tested? When I listen to him in interviews he seems to have two distinctly different affects.

bigfatbartolocolon.bsky.social•51 days ago

many are calling Mahomes "The Ryan Clark of quarterbacks"

jeffthompson48.bsky.social•51 days ago

I refer to him as "Flopper" Mahomes.

carypalmer.bsky.social•51 days ago

Mahomes has been outright bad all year. this is quite literally the worst time in his career to die on this hill.

emeraldcanna.bsky.social•51 days ago

They talk about his greatness, but where did he finish in the MVP voting is what I am wondering.....he wasn't not even in the discussion this year or last year if I recall.

carypalmer.bsky.social•51 days ago

More ints than TDs for like half the year lol

His defense carried him in a bad way for majority of the season.

emeraldcanna.bsky.social•51 days ago

Patrick Mahomes is more like Trent Dilfer this year than he is Patrick Mahomes.

carypalmer.bsky.social•51 days ago

His team won despite him for most of the year and they swear he's the second coming of Christ lmao

13s to go. Ball on 25-yard line. Mahomes got his team to kick a field goal to tie. Josh Allen had over 3 minutes with the ball at the 30 yard line. Couldnt get his team to kick a field goal to tie.

johnhoertz.bsky.social•51 days ago

Josh Allen didn't drop the pass on 4th down.

johnhoertz.bsky.social•51 days ago

It's okay to say Mahomes is great AND Allen is too.

kwekua.bsky.social•51 days ago

Allen is good not great. Time and time again he fails to deliver in critical situations. Same as Lamar. Same as Dan Marino was.

dorrenmills.bsky.social•51 days ago

He also didn’t complete a pass on first down, second down or third down. They should have never been in that situation for a desperate 4th down heave. Poor play calling by the coaches and poor execution by the team.

johnhoertz.bsky.social•51 days ago

He did complete a pass on 3rd down. It was 4th and 5. They should have never been in that position if the refs knew how to place a football TWICE. At worst in that situation the game would have been tied instead of having to have that play to keep the game going.

dorrenmills.bsky.social•51 days ago

I agree that the refs and the replay officials screwed them. They also should have never been in the position to let the refs make that call. You will never beat the champ by a decision. You have to knock him out.

johnhoertz.bsky.social•51 days ago

You'll get no argument on that point

ridelikeaturtle.bsky.social•51 days ago

Two words, one superhuman: Wilt Chamberlain. #GOAT The guy dominated at every sport he tried. He even outsprinted Jim Brown, barefoot.

phouns33.bsky.social•51 days ago

That's with any player Ryan. There's never been another Manning or another Brady. Stop with this narrative that he's one of a kind when the here are a ton of players like that in the HOF. Not every QB got a perfect situation from the beginning.

mrobespierre.bsky.social•51 days ago

Fran Tarkenton had more skills than twinkle toes Mahomes. Fran Tarkenton didn’t have the luxury of having the referees cheat for him. The NFL today is as fake as Melania Trump’s orgasms.

mrobespierre.bsky.social•51 days ago

Perhaps you haven’t heard of super Joe Montana, Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers, Joe Namath etc. If the officiating was not rigged, the Chiefs would never have gotten to a Super Bowl.

If defenses were allowed to take a legitimate hit on Patrick Mahomes he would carried off the field on a stretcher.

elsteeler.bsky.social•51 days ago

Just glad someone might take the crown away from TB so soon...... Still mad about the Steelers tapes sitting in that office......

danidtown.bsky.social•51 days ago

The NFL definitely has a similar feel to it as the NBA did in the Jordan days. Like 2nd place is a win because that guy is almost unbeatable. Especially with Reid and that defense.

fanoftheland13.bsky.social•51 days ago

Does that make Kelce Pippen?
