When it comes to the best quarterback in the NFL today, one name stands out above the rest: Patrick Mahomes. Since taking over as the starting quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2018, Mahomes has quickly built a resume that rivals some of the greatest to ever play the game. His combination of talent, leadership, and success makes a compelling case that he is not just the best quarterback right now — but on a trajectory to become one of the greatest of all time.
Mahomes' accomplishments in just a few short years are staggering. He’s already a multiple-time Super Bowl champion and MVP, with a growing list of accolades that most players only dream of. In his first full season as a starter, he threw for 5,097 yards and 50 touchdowns, earning the NFL MVP award and showing the world just how special he was. That season was only the beginning.
One of Mahomes' most remarkable qualities is his ability to perform in the biggest moments. In the 2019-2020 season, he led the Chiefs to their first Super Bowl title in 50 years with a dramatic comeback victory over the San Francisco 49ers. Down by 10 points in the fourth quarter, Mahomes orchestrated a masterful rally, throwing two late touchdowns and securing the game’s MVP award. His poise under pressure and ability to deliver when it matters most have become his trademarks.
In addition to his championships, Mahomes has consistently put up elite numbers. He’s passed for over 4,000 yards in nearly every season he’s played and maintains one of the highest passer ratings in NFL history. His creativity on the field — from no-look passes to off-platform throws — has revolutionized the quarterback position and made him must-watch television every week.
Beyond the stats and the highlight-reel plays, Mahomes’ leadership and work ethic set him apart. He’s the heart and soul of the Chiefs, a player whose teammates rally around him and whose presence inspires confidence. Despite his rapid rise to stardom, he remains humble and focused on winning, always putting the team’s success above individual accolades.
At just 28 years old, Patrick Mahomes has already accomplished more than many quarterbacks achieve in their entire careers — and he’s far from done. With multiple Super Bowl wins, MVP awards, and record-breaking performances, he has firmly established himself as the best quarterback in the NFL today. As his career continues, the conversation may soon shift from Mahomes being the best right now to him being the greatest of all time.
