Chiefs News: Patrick Mahomes Close to Being a “Lock” for the Hall of Fame

Kansas City Chiefs: Patrick MahomesQB

Current hall of fame “lock”? No, but he is closer than you think

Tyrann Mathieu, Travis Kelce and Tyreek Hill also enjoy solid starts in their careers. But I couldn’t face Mahomes, who last year became the first player to win the league and the Super Bowl MVP before turning 25. Already considered the best soccer player today, another MVP / Super Bowl season may be all Mahomes needs to earn early consideration as a future Hall of Famer. Gale Sayers and Terrell Davis only needed four healthy seasons to earn their place in Canton. Mahomes, whose early professional success rivals both legendary players, is entering his third season as the Chiefs’ starting quarterback.

6 Best Bosses Not in the Professional Soccer Hall of Fame | Chiefs Wire

RB Holmes Priest (2001-2007)

Praise from the bosses:

Three consecutive Pro Bowl (2001-2003). First three consecutive All-Pro teams (2001-2003). NFL Offensive Player of the Year (2002). NFL rushing yard leader in 2001 (1,555). 2002 NFL touchdown leader (21). 2003 NFL touchdown leader (27). He set the NFL record for scrimmage yards per game in 2002 (163.4). 15th in NFL history in rushing touchdowns (86).

The biggest argument against Holmes’ claim to the Professional Soccer Hall of Fame is longevity. Still, his first three seasons in Kansas City represent perhaps the most dominant stretch by a running back in NFL history. That should only deserve a conversation about Holmes given a chance.

4. Kansas City Chiefs

DT: Chris Jones

DELAWARE: Frank Clark

LB: Anthony Hitchens

S: Tyrann Mathieu

We know more or less what we’re going to get from the Kansas City offense, points and lots of them, so it’s in defense of the game to keep your end of the bargain in the Chiefs’ bid to repeat. Clark and Jones give the unit a forceful duo up front that exhausts opponents with a shower of body shots. The combination of Jones’ instinctive pressure and Clark’s pocket crashes cause the quarterbacks to wither at the end of a 60-minute game. Hitchens is a stable player in the middle with solid play like a career cap. He is not one of the top 50 players in the league or anything, but his consistent presence, excellent communication skills, and consistency within the box make him perfect for Bosses. Mathieu is the ideal complement to a disruptive passing career as a defender of the Swiss Army Knife with box area skills. He remains an outstanding player against the pass, but his ability to make plays against the run increases defense performance. Plus, Mathieu’s leadership skills and endurance give KC the nervousness that is needed in the tough and tough AFC.

Biggest weakness: the cornerback. It would be inaccurate to consider this a dazzling problem. After all, the Chiefs had excellent overall passing defense last season. His career defense was often the sore spot. They improved on both fronts in the second half of the season, which surely contributed to their three double-digit comebacks in the playoffs. Still, CB’s position wasn’t exactly star-studded. With limited cap space, chasing the top cornerbacks in free agency wasn’t really an option, but you’d have thought Kansas City would attract a cap man before the draft than on Day 3. A corner group led by Bashaud Breeland, Charvarius Ward, and Rashad Fenton are probably no better than helpful.

Here are 5 Patrick Mahomes prop bets worth considering | FanSided

Which receiver receives more targets?

Let’s start on the outside. Tyreek HillHis nickname is “Cheetah”. That should tell you everything you need to know about how fast it is. Mecole Hardman he runs 4.33 on the 40-yard dash and is an open field fire. Even if Sammy Watkins Officially an elder statesman in the receiving group, he can still separate from most defensive backs to remove the top of the defense.

If you think you can take off all those weapons, try taking care of the best NFL tight end in Travis Kelce. Too fast for the linebackers and too strong for the defenders, Kelce also has breakout speed for the tight end position. Kelce has taken on the role of being Mahomes’ favorite target for the third attempt.

Daniel Sorensen – Four years, $ 16 million

Sorensen saw minimal playing time during his first two years with the Chiefs before experiencing a breakout season in 2016. The Colton, California native scored 63 tackles that year, including a bag, along with three fumble recoveries and three interceptions. Kansas City quickly offered Sorensen a four-year, $ 16 million extension that keeps him tied to the Chiefs for next season. Sorensen has continued to impress since then and was a key part of Kansas City’s 2020 playoff career and Super Bowl victory.

The Dallas Cowboys are wasting the luckiest QB career in NFL history | YES

Any fear in Dallas this week may herald what is to come. The Cowboys were overwhelmingly blessed to stumble upon Tony Romo, whom they nearly cut anyway, and Prescott in consecutive quarterback cycles. Prescott, by the way, was not Dallas’ preferred choice there. If you remember, they coveted both Paxton Lynch and Connor Cook. And because of their recruiting status (or lack of it in Romo’s case), the Cowboys were allowed significant salary savings early in their careers. They also avoided NFL purgatory seeking a franchise quarterback when you don’t have one, and never had to spend a capital project choosing a first-round QB or, even more expensive, swapping for one. But despite all this, they may soon leave this era without much to show.

Wide receivers

99% of 2019 snapshots are returning

The 20 snapshots that the former Chiefs De ‘catcherAnthony Thomas Taken in 2019 they were probably already forgotten by most. They were the only receiver snapshots taken by a player who is not yet listed. The group is young, continues to improve, and continues to build confidence with the best NFL quarterback. There are no newcomers with whom Mahomes has to build a chemistry on the field during this virtual offseason.

That ongoing relationship materializes on the soccer field in multiple ways. Head coach Andy Reid can add more plays and concepts, knowing that all wide receivers have been in his system for at least a year. Familiarity with Mahomes is useful when a play breaks down and becomes a drill.

No matter who lines up in 2020, there is reason to believe that Mahomes will trust them.
