Chiefs Does Mahomes have a legit chance to surpass the MVP season?

RaidersOftheCellar · 10-12-2022, 10:01 AM

Through 5 games, he's on pace for close to 4800 yds, 51 TDs, and under 7 INTs.

There are some really good defenses left on the schedule, especially the next two weeks.

Not a chance to throw more than 50 unless Skyy Moore emerges or we trade for a WR.

The Chiefs have 2 TDs to WRs through 5 games. Mahomes threw 24 TDs to WRs in 2018.

Not unless the WR's step it up.

Mahomes: On pace to throw 50 TDs.

I don't think he necessarily needs more than 50 to have a better overall year. If he threw 45-47 TDs with 6-7 picks and around 5000 yds and a higher comp%, I think that's a better season. Which I think is realistic. Averaging 2.5 TDs/game the rest of the way gets him to 45.

He would be on pace for 60 with a WR.

Wide Recievers got us inside the 10 3 times, and Pat just found Kelce... Wide receivers showed well Monday night.

**Rain Man** · 10-12-2022, 10:47 AM

He averaged a touchdown every four yards when throwing to Kelce last week. So if he threw only to Kelce and kept that pace up, he could have a 4,800 yard season with 1,200 touchdowns.

**Bearcat** · 10-12-2022, 10:51 AM

Whenever Mahomes doesn't win MVP, people talk about how stacked the offense is and well, maybe it's that he has so much talent around him, versus MVP winners who put up comparable stats with less.

Take away some of that talent, Mahomes puts up comparable or better numbers, and idiots say he needs more talent around him to win MVP.

FFS.

Yeah, I don't think it's fair to criticize the WRs too much. The offense has been incredibly efficient overall, and when it isn't, it's because Brown and Wylie are doing turnstile impressions.

Yeah, as others have pointed out in the recent past, losing Tyreek really comes down to that one moment in the playoffs where you NEED Wasp or NEED 40 yards in 13 seconds, and do you have that one guy or those two guys you can 100% count on to make a play and that Mahomes trusts to make a play.

Kelce's been the man and time will tell how it all works out... and it's going pretty well so far!

Hopefully the defense will improve enough that they won't find themselves in any desperate situations like that. Even with Tyreek, they wouldn't be likely to repeat the 13 second feat again.

I'm all for signing Beckham though, if they can make it happen. And from what I've heard, there's interest but they're not sure if they could work it out.

His actual play is better now even if the numbers don’t end up reflecting that

He would have the advantage of having an extra game vs then.

Barring injury, Josh Allen is likely winning the MVP. The NFL wants him to win, he has more weapons to put up big yardage totals, and he racks up rushing yards to boot.
