Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes Reveals His One Goal for This Season
Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes Reveals His One Goal for This Season originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Patrick Mahomes is gearing up for his ninth NFL season after being selected No. 10 overall by the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2017 draft. Advertisement In Year 8, the two-time league MVP posted the lowest passing yard total of his career as the Chiefs' full-time starter. His 3,928 yards ranked seventh in the league but fell well short of the 5,250 he accumulated in 2022. Despite the dip in production, Mahomes still led his team to the Super Bowl for the fifth time in the past six seasons. The offseason isn't over yet, but with training camp set to begin in a couple of weeks, the Chiefs are already getting ready. On Sunday, the team posted photos from their media production day, showing their two quarterbacks, Mahomes and backup Gardner Minshew, holding "2025 Roll Call" boards.

On the board, Mahomes and Minshew had to fill in what their goal is for the 2025-26 NFL season. Advertisement Mahomes wrote, "Get a Super Bowl win." It's no surprise Mahomes is focused on winning his fourth Super Bowl, especially after coming up short in February of becoming the first team in NFL history to win three consecutive titles. The Chiefs finished their best regular season in franchise history at 15-2, but the 40-22 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX will remain in the back of their minds for a long time. With a fourth ring, Mahomes would join Tom Brady (seven), Joe Montana (four) and Terry Bradshaw (four) as the only quarterbacks ever to win that many. As it stands, the Chiefs have the fourth-best odds to win the upcoming Super Bowl at +750 (ESPN Bet). The Eagles lead at +650, while the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills are tied for second-best at +700.

Chiefs Exuding Confidence in Mahomes Backup
Chiefs Exuding Confidence in Mahomes Backup originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Kansas City Chiefs will have a new backup quarterback on the roster this season, but like in years past, it is someone with a lot of NFL experience under their belt. Advertisement Last year Carson Wentz sat behind superstar Patrick Mahomes on the depth chart. This year, it will be free agent signee Gardner Minshew. Head coach Andy Reid believes Minshew's veteran presence will greatly benefit Mahomes and the offense. "He's been there — he's started, so he's got that,' Reid said in a press conference. 'He's got the confidence of the guys around him. Patrick knows he's been in there and done it, so they can bounce things off of each other." Minshew likely won't have trouble adapting to the unique offensive scheme Reid and Mahomes have been carving up defenses with for years in KC. Advertisement Minshew is a product of the "air raid" system in college under then Washington State head coach Mike Leach. Mahomes played under a similar philosophy at Texas Tech, the place Leach first introduced the revolutionary offense to the college ranks. After one season with the Las Vegas Raiders, Minshew joins his fourth team in four years, but Reid believes that experience in invaluable - wherever it is from in the NFL. "It's always good to have peers that have played, and you can talk to them about it a little bit," Reid added. "I think on game day he'll be great with Patrick, just with what he's seeing from the sideline and what Pat's seeing when he's in there.' Minshew has started in 22 of the last 27 games he's played in over the last two seasons. While he won't see that much action in Kansas City (ideally), he'll be able to recognize defenses to offer Mahomes insight, having seen them on the field recently. Advertisement The 29 year old is a former sixth round pick in 2019 of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Last year was one of his worst statistical seasons of his career, throwing for 10 interceptions and over 1,000 less yards than his 2023 campaign. He's often a viral internet sensation with his boisterous locker room personality and electric mustache. That energetic presence, along with football knowledge, hopes to make an impact on a Chiefs team that is on the precipice of making a fourth consecutive Super Bowl appearance.
