Mahomes vs The Field: Is He Still the NFL’s Gold Standard QB?
About this episode
Kelvin Washington and Ephraim Salaam debate whether Patrick Mahomes remains the gold standard quarterback in the NFL after his recent contract extension.
Kelvin Washington and Ephraim Salaam break down Patrick Mahomes’ latest contract extension with the Kansas City Chiefs—and whether he still deserves to be the NFL’s gold standard at quarterback. Kelvin argues that Mahomes remains the benchmark, saying even with a couple of “down years,” he’s still the player every franchise would build around. Ephraim pushes back, questioning whether Mahomes’ recent performance has been good enough to justify that label, and suggests quarterbacks like Josh Allen or Matthew Stafford may be setting the tone right now. The two go back and forth on what defines greatness in today’s NFL: long-term dominance, recent production, or postseason success—and whether Mahomes still checks every box. 👉 Is Mahomes still THE guy… or is the standard starting to shift?
