On the same note, Max Kellerman could not keep himself calm while discussing the prowess of this 26-year-old. 

Max Kellerman stated, “I knew that he (Patrick Mahomes) was going to have an enormous season this year because – people were like aww, he doesn’t have the best target anymore. But that’s only going to force him to spread it around now. Patrick Mahome, last season – which was by far the worst season of his career – led the fourth best offense in the game. Hosted the AFC Championship game. This dude is different than anyone I’ve ever seen.”

Mahomes added, “To me Patrick Mahomes is Aaron Rodgers in terms of precision and off schedule stuff. Plus, (he’s like) Brett Favre because people like him, because he is funny. This dude in unbelievable. I think it is unfair to compare other Quarterbacks to him. I think there is Patrick Mahomes and then everyone else is fighting to see who should be compared to Patrick Mahomes.”
