A crazy Mahomes vs. pressure fact from yesterday's game:

Quote:
Mahomes was pressured on 33 of his 57 dropbacks Sunday, the most dropbacks under duress by any quarterback in the last 10 seasons. Mahomes was 16-of-30 when pressured for 210 yards, a touchdown and an interception.
Mahomes beat the Ravens' blitz, finishing 16-of-22 for 180 yards and a touchdown when the Ravens sent five or more pass-rushers, including his game-saving, fourth-down, 48-yard pass to Tyreek Hill late in the game and his tying touchdown pass to Damien Williams in the final minute of the fourth quarter.

So basically the Ravens, a.k.a. the #1 ranked passing defense heading into yesterday's game, threw every exotic blitz and scheme at Mahomes imaginable yesterday and Mahomes still shredded them for 377 yards passing WITHOUT one of his starting WR's, with another starting WR hobbled, with his new #1 RB hobbled and his starting left guard hobbled.
The MVP "debate" (as if there was one) is over.
