"The days of Tom Brady ruling the NFL might be officially over since he hung up his cleats and moved on to commentary, but that doesn't mean the constant comparisons have slowed down, especially with a quarterback like Patrick Mahomes still playing on Sunday. Although some have already named him the greatest of all time over Brady, he still has a long way to go to accomplish that."
"Despite signing with the Bucs after Brady left the Patriots and joined the NFC South team, which eventually led to a Super Bowl win, former running back LeSean McCoy has taken a liking to trashing the quarterback's legacy far too often for any Patriots fans' liking. He's continued that in recent days, defending Mahomes, who has now led the Chiefs to their worst record since he was drafted."
Tom Brady retired and moved into commentary, but comparisons with Patrick Mahomes continue. Mahomes failed to secure a third consecutive Super Bowl and lost to the Eagles. The Chiefs entered December 6-6 after a Thanksgiving loss to the Cowboys and appear at risk of missing the playoffs for the first time in Mahomes' career. Prominent voices have offered excuses and disputed statistics to defend Mahomes in the GOAT conversation. Former running back LeSean McCoy publicly defended Mahomes and suggested the Patriots "took a break during the dynasty years," implying mischaracterization of Brady-era performance.
