Patrick Mahomes film review: showing the world the chip on his shoulder

By all indications, Patrick Mahomes was built in a laboratory with one purpose in life: to be an NFL quarterback.

He has the pedigree of a professional athlete, gaining behind-the-scenes experience watching baseball legends like Alex Rodriguez put in the work. Demonstrating poise and class, he quietly navigated his transition to NFL backup — and then to NFL starter and NFL star. He says (and does) the right things — both on and off the field.

For my money, when he’s on the field, he’s the world’s best quarterback.

There is so much about his public life that is structured, measured and well-maintained.
