Misc What will be Mahomes first moment of adversity - Page 5

Yeah, Mahomes is the best player in the NFL.

However, he has never really faced any NFL adversity, let alone adversity over a few weeks- the guy just performed all year.

It is inevitable that he’ll have some type of struggle, choke away a game, or have a poor stretch where the blame is mostly on him. The media will lap that shit up, I can see the headlines now “Mahomes is regressing” etc. Then he makes the media eat shit.

Anyways,

My guess for this first adversarial moment is: we lose back to back games where Mahomes throws a few brutal picks and fumbles. One game is not his fault, but one game he “fumbles it away like Jamaal against the Broncos”.

What do you think? If your answer is “never”, you might not be wrong.

Don't even want to think about it, because the only adversity that he's not going to surmount with effort and study with his skillset is the adversity you don't want to think about.

He's not going to get lazy, or confused, or wallow in a tantrum about team dynamics. He's not going to have an Achille's heel opponent that has him figured out beyond his ability to adjust.

Physics, entropy and luck are his only nemeses, so lets all pretend they don't exist for the moment.
