Patrick Mahomes is well on his way to a second straight MVP award

Given how much ink has already been spilled about Patrick Mahomes, it’s a miracle that anything else can be written.

The Kansas City Chiefs starting quarterback won the National Football League’s Most Valuable Player award in his first full season as a starter—in fact, in a year where he made career starts two through 19. He put up the fabled numbers often quoted together as a couplet—50 and 5,000—which represent the total touchdowns and passing yards from what was a magical season for both Mahomes and the rest of the Kansas City Chiefs.

In that single season as a starter, Mahomes was compared to every great quarterback who ever played the game.
