Arrowheadlines: The 17 game season could mean more NFL records for Patrick Mahomes

The passing touchdowns stat is the most likely one to fall. That record has been broken three times this century, in 2004, 2007, and 2013. Peyton Manning is the current holder, after throwing 55 touchdowns with the Broncos. The next closest are Tom Brady (from 2007) and Patrick Mahomes (2018), both with 50. It’s that latter name that I’d bet on eclipsing Manning’s mark. Though a 17-game schedule would have put Mahomes on pace for just 53.1 touchdowns in 2018, short of Manning’s record, Mahomes’s preternatural talent could have him well within striking distance sooner rather than later. And if it’s not Mahomes, it’ll be someone else.
