Mahomes’ remarkable track record further cements his place in NFL history.
At just 28 years old, he played in his sixth AFC Championship, notching his 14th playoff win.
With the victory against the Ravens, Mahomes joined the ranks of legends like Terry Bradshaw, John Elway, and Peyton Manning with 14 playoff victories.
The only quarterbacks with more are Tom Brady and Joe Montana.
Mahomes’ trajectory is notably ahead of the pace set by Brady during his career, and the comparison is nothing short of extraordinary.
The Chiefs’ consistent presence in the AFC championship game, making it six straight seasons, draws parallels to Brady’s remarkable eight straight appearances.
Mahomes, with his impressive Super Bowl tally in just seven seasons, is sparking conversations about the possibility of challenging Brady’s historic achievements.
As Mahomes prepares for his fourth Super Bowl appearance, his journey continues to captivate the NFL world, and the idea of him matching Brady’s legacy becomes more plausible with each passing season.
