Is Patrick Mahomes already a future NFL Hall of Famer? Chiefs QB's Super Bowl performance one for the ages
Patrick Mahomes did it again. This time, it was arguably his most impressive performance ever. The Kansas City Chiefs signal-caller finished Super Bowl LVII with an efficient line of 21/27 for 182 yards and three touchdowns. He also ran for 44 yards on an aggravated sprained ankle.
His injury may have completely neutralized other quarterbacks in the league, but with Mahomes, he played through it and looked just as good as he ever has. The win gives him his second Super Bowl title and his second MVP in the big game. Is he already a Hall of Fame lock?

This week alone, Mahomes has earned his second Super Bowl title and second Super Bowl MVP, along with his second NFL MVP as well. He has all of this just six years into his career.
It is fair to point out that he is playing for one of the greatest offensive minds in NFL history in Andy Reid. The head coach was scheming his players the entire game against the Philadelphia Eagles defense to an extent that it looked almost comical.
If Mahomes decides to retire today, he will likely reach the Hall of Fame. But, of course, that is not happening.

Assumptions aside, it is now a fun game to begin projecting just how far Mahomes will go. How many Super Bowls will he win? Just a year ago, it seemed that Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals were the team to beat in the AFC. Then there was talk of the AFC West being the toughest division in all of football. So naturally, the Chiefs dominated once again all the way to a Super Bowl title.
The living Chiefs legend is only 27 years old and just led a Super Bowl run with a bum ankle. Assuming he maintains his health, and Reid sticks around to call the shots, it will be hard to count the Chiefs out at any point in the near future.
