When Patrick Mahomes takes the field for Super Bowl LIX on Sunday, he’ll have a chance to accomplish something no quarterback in NFL history has ever done—win three consecutive Super Bowls.

The Kansas City Chiefs’ appearance in this game is historic in itself, as no team has ever reached five Super Bowls in a six-year span before this season.

While Kansas City’s success has been driven by key contributors like head coach Andy Reid, tight end Travis Kelce, and defensive tackle Chris Jones, there’s no question that Mahomes has been the driving force behind this dynasty.

Drafted in 2017 and named the starting quarterback a year later, Mahomes made an immediate impact—throwing 50 touchdowns and winning MVP in his first season as a starter. Since then, he has claimed two league MVPs, three Super Bowl MVPs, and has led the Chiefs to at least the AFC Championship Game in every season of his career.

Mahomes boasts an incredible playoff record, with just three losses in 20 postseason games. Two of those defeats came against Tom Brady—the widely recognized Greatest of All Time—first in the 2018 AFC Championship Game with the Patriots and then in Super Bowl LV with the Buccaneers.

Brady, who will ironically be calling Sunday’s game for Fox, retired with a record seven Super Bowl rings—an achievement once thought to be untouchable. And yet, through his first eight seasons, Mahomes is not only keeping pace with Brady’s championship count, but he has a chance to surpass him.

Statistically, Mahomes has outperformed Brady in nearly every key quarterback metric over their respective first eight seasons. While differences in eras play a role, the numbers highlight just how dominant and well-rounded Mahomes has been.

And the story isn’t finished yet. If the Chiefs win on Sunday, Mahomes will claim his fourth championship in eight seasons—one more than Brady had at the same point in his career.

One more Super Bowl win may not be enough to crown Mahomes as the GOAT just yet, but regardless of Sunday’s outcome, his case is only getting stronger as he enters the next phase of his career.
