Patrick Mahomes is considered as the league’s premier quarterback. His impressive track record boasted by multiple MVP awards and championships leading the Kansas City Chiefs to the glory in his short career thus far.

Mahomes’ stellar performance continues as the Chiefs have secured a solid 2-1 record. Despite the Chiefs encountered a setback in week 1 when they narrowly lost to the Detroit Lions, a significant contributing factor to that loss was the unusual number of dropped passes by his teammates.
