Patrick Mahomes About to Explode: Insiders Reveal the One Stat That Will Change Everything

Patrick Mahomes, widely regarded as one of the most talented quarterbacks in the NFL, has made a slow start to the season, at least by his lofty standards. Despite this, Mahomes remains optimistic, and those closest to him suggest that a major breakthrough is imminent.

The Kansas City Chiefs, led by their superstar quarterback, have been able to start the season with a perfect 4-0 record. While the team has performed well in terms of wins and losses, Mahomes has not been able to match his previous level of productivity. Still, the former NFL MVP is confident that he can turn the corner and begin playing at a high level.

So what exactly does Mahomes mean by turning the corner? According to those close to the quarterback, he's been working diligently on fine-tuning his mechanics, focusing on accuracy and arm strength in particular. There have been times this season when Mahomes' usual pinpoint accuracy has been slightly off, and he's been working in practice to correct this issue.

One telling statistic that supports Mahomes' optimism is his gradual improvement in terms of completion percentage. While it's still early in the season, Mahomes' completion percentage has increased in each of the last three weeks. This upward trend is something to monitor moving forward, especially as the quarterback continues to work on his mechanics.

It's worth noting that even in a slow start by Mahomes' standards, he's still among the top quarterbacks in the league. His statistics might not be as gaudy as they have been in the past, but Mahomes has consistently demonstrated the ability to make big plays when it matters most. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has been praised for his ability to get the most out of his players, and he's been impressed by Mahomes' work ethic and determination thus far this season.

Given the dominance that Mahomes has displayed in the past, there's no reason to doubt him as he works through this period of adjustment. Based on what has been reported, it's likely only a matter of time before Mahomes breaks out and resumes playing at an elite level. Insiders around the organization believe that when that moment comes, Mahomes will regain his position as the best quarterback in the league, and the rest of the league will have to take notice.
