WATCH: ‘Salty’ Ja’Marr Chase Refuses to Even Say Patrick Mahomes’ Name When Asked Who No. 1 NFL Player Is
Ja’Marr Chase does not want to admit that Patrick Mahomes is the best player in the league. The Bengals wide receiver named his teammate over the Chiefs’ star quarterback.
The Chiefs’ success has led to their rivals not acknowledging their greatness. Patrick Mahomes has led his side to three Super Bowl championships in the last five years. His AFC rivals, the Bengals, seem to be annoyed by it. So, when Ja’Marr Chase was recently asked about the No.1 player in the league, he refused to take Mahomes’ name.
Patrick has been the most integral element of the Chiefs’ golden run. The Kansas-based franchise selected Mahomes in the first round of the 2017 NFL draft. In his third season, he took the Chiefs to Super Bowl glory. He also made it to the grand stage the following year, but his side lost to the Buccaneers. After missing the Super Bowl in 2022, Patrick recorded consecutive victories in the next two years.

Patrick Mahomes' dreams of a three-peat amid comparisons with Tom Brady
Many experts and fans think Mahomes will end his career with a better record than Tom Brady. The Chiefs quarterback has three Super Bowl rings compared to Brady’s seven. However, Brady or any other player has never won the Vince Lombardi Trophy thrice in a row. Patrick Mahomes’ Chiefs can be the first team in NFL history to complete a three-peat.
Mahomes will add another Super Bowl to his name. He has always been named Super Bowl MVP award when the Chiefs won the SB. If that happens again, Mahomes will be one Super Bowl MVP award shy of matching Brady.
The NFL GOAT has a 7-3 record in the Super Bowl. Mahomes, at 28, has a great chance of bettering it with his current 3-1 record.
