Brett sat a ton of games down the stretch to maintain the batting average. Mahomes didn’t. End of argument for me.

Mahomes played a full, grueling 16 game schedule
Brett only played in 117 baseball games Clearly Mahomes |

Me being an outsider always felt like it was more of a Chiefs town

No Maurice Greene?
edit: In the 1999-2000 season, he was the World champ in 100, 200, and 4X100, toss in a coupla golds at the Sydney Olympics (100, 4X100) and another Worlds title in the 100m in 2001. Maybe Satchel Paige comes close

Mahomes no question. Wanted to mention Houston’s 21.5 or whatever it ended up season as well.

I don't remember the specifics of Brett's 1980 season, but one of my early childhood memories was watching the 1980 World Series, it was the first time I remember eating Doritos. I have had the pleasure of witnessing a George Brett Home Run in person at Royals Stadium (pre Kauffman days) and was at the first game the Royals played after Dick Howser died. They won by 10. Dick Howser's number.
While George Brett was a childhood hero, I had to vote Mahomes. |

Only 24 homers.
Not even close. I think I might put DT's 20-sack season before Brett. Getting that many sacks back then was HARD.

Without having seen the poll I would have said Brett 1980. I think that's probably the right answer. Dude hit .390 and there are like two guys in the last 75 years of baseball to do that. That's probably the single most impressive feat in KC sports history.
I would say you're probably underrating Brett 1985 though. Monster season, great performance in the playoffs, World Championship. That's hard to beat. Mahomes is in the ballpark and has a great chance to do it going forward, but he got shut out in the first half of a playoff game. That's tough but it'd probably put him just behind Brett 80. That and hitting .390 is just disgusting. It's the hardest thing to do in sports and he did it that year better than anyone has in decades. Last edited by tk13; 02-15-2019 at 06:31 PM.. |

Hard to compare one baseball player to a football quarterback
In the end, they both went 1-1 in the playoffs |
