Tom Brady is known as the best football player ever. He won the Super Bowl seven times! Brady has thrown more passes and touchdowns than any other quarterback. He’s played in a lot of games and is really good at winning.
Brady spent 23 seasons playing football.
Even though Brady is amazing, someone might be better one day. Patrick Mahomes could be that person. If the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Las Vegas Raiders, owned partly by Brady, it would help Mahomes get closer to being the greatest.
Patrick Mahomes has a chance to boost his reputation by winning against the Raiders. The Raiders aren’t doing well this season, with only two wins and a string of losses. Losing to them would be quite embarrassing for Mahomes. However, winning this game means a lot to him personally.
A victory would mark Mahomes’ 100th win in the NFL, a significant milestone achieved in just eight seasons. Tom Brady holds the current record with 100 wins in the same timeframe, counting both regular and postseason games. To tie Brady’s record, Mahomes needs just one more win; two would surpass it. Beating a team Brady owns part of would be a fitting way to achieve this.
Mahomes has a long journey ahead to match Brady’s 251 regular-season victories and 35 playoff wins. However, with his current progress, he’s making things interesting. At just 29 years old, Mahomes has time on his side.
Brady will hold the title of GOAT for some time, but Mahomes’ talent and success are hard to ignore. Winning his 100th game faster than Brady did nudges him closer to that legendary status, even if it’s just a tiny step forward.
