With Tom Brady retiring from the NFL in 2023, the football community’s attention immediately switched to Patrick Mahomes, as the Kansas City Chiefs star seems to have the most realistic chances of chasing Brady’s Super Bowl record.
Before hanging up his cleats, the former New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback lifted the Vince Lombardi on seven occasions. Mahomes is still four titles shy, but he’s already led the Chiefs to three championships.
But before he continues his quest towards the Super Bowl milestone, Mahomes already has another NFL record set by Brady in sight. In fact, he can match it with a win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Friday.
Mahomes close to matching unique NFL record set by Brady
With 99 wins as a starter, including playoff games, Mahomes is just one victory away from tying Brady’s record for most wins by a quarterback in his first eight NFL seasons.
The Chiefs star only needs one more win to tie that mark, but he can also leave Brady behind if he wins two more games in 2024. And unless the Chiefs suddenly fall apart, chances are that Mahomes will set a new record.
The games left for Mahomes, Chiefs in 2024 NFL season
Ahead of the Black Friday Game against division rivals Raiders on November 29, the Chiefs have six regular season games left in 2024. Then, of course, the playoffs will give Mahomes even more chances to surpass Brady’s record.
