which games are those? I can only think of sb 55 and maybe sb58
This is a bad offensive line stat as much as it’s a good Mahomes stat
Some additional context on this stat:
– this excludes the Chiefs’ 2024 season Super Bowl loss to the Eagles where Mahomes was pressured at a high rate but it didn’t exceed 20 pressures due to the limited number of possessions.
– the other four wins are Caleb Williams vs Packers, Tom Brady vs Falcons, Deshaun Watson vs Bills, and Josh Allen vs Dolphins.
– stat inspired by Herbert getting pressured 25 times against the Patriots. Third most pressures allowed in a postseason game in NFL history behind only Mahomes vs Buccaneers (31 pressures) and Sam Darnold vs Rams (27 pressures).
I can probably guess the game he lost 😞
This stat actually makes me worried about what Mahomes will look like post injury and as he gets older.
He’s been world class at dealing with pressure and finding ways to win, but it doesn’t feel sustainable.
Chiefs need figure out a Mahomes 2.0 strategy that doesn’t rely on Mahomes magic every play.
Probably too much FUD on my part, especially after watching how poorly old man Rodgers was moving around the pocket last night.
Built different
Patrick was at LEAST 98% of the reason we have won three rings. Andy is a placeholder that has turned into a detriment to winning them now.
Alright… so which game was he not pressured 20+ times, The second Eagles SB or the Buccaneers SB?
