IMO, the best single play of Mahomes’s career was the 4th and 9 conversion against Baltimore.
If he doesn’t make that play, the game is over. Most of his other great plays weren’t necessarily “life or death”. That play also fell apart immediately and the game had major seeding consequences. That play still doesn’t seem real. Such a perfect pass that no other QB can make in a clutch situation.

And nonsensical play calling by AR/EB.
I still don't understand why they didn't adjust when it became obvious that we could not block anyone. Yet, they continued to call plays that required Mahomes to hold the ball longer than possible. I know, new season, etc. but Andy Reid is supposed to be an offensive genius, and it still pisses me off. Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk |

Wasp was incredible and obviously my second place choice.
Here’s the difference to me. 1. Wasp came with around 7 minutes left in the game on a third down. Our chances of winning dramatically decrease if Mahomes doesn’t make that play, but it’s still possible. There was 1:30 left when Mahomes converted the 4th and 9. That game is absolutely over if we don’t connect. 2. Other QBs can make the throw that Mahomes made on Wasp. It probably isn’t a top 10 Mahomes throw if that happens in the first half. I’m not sure any other QB (except Rodgers) can make that 4th and 9 throw. It’s a top play no matter the situation. Dropped in beautifully between 4 Ravens. Just crazy stuff. There’s no wrong choice here, but the 4th and 9 takes it for me.

I agree it's close.
But when you add the fact that Mahomes had the presence of mind to basically call WASP himself, while in the middle of his worst game ever in the biggest game of his career, then went out and gave specific coaching to Sammy and Tyreek to make the play succeed, and finally executed the throw while staying out of harm's way - WASP wins for me. Compare that to Josh Allen's 1000-yard stare after his ill-advised unnecessary pitch in the playoff game vs. Houston. |

It’s just amazing how he has transformed our team.
We know that we have the guy who will pretty much always come through in a clutch situation. It’s unbelievable |

It’s almost hard to keep track of all the great plays. Good problem to have.

Because WASP happened when down by two scores I think having 7 minutes left is about equivalent to the play against Baltimore since we were down by one score there.
I'll agree the Baltimore play elevated Patrick to the presumptive MVP favorite in the sports world because he A. put the team on his shoulders with 90 seconds left, B. made a play that likely only he could make and, C. led his team to an unbelievable comeback win in overtime and elevated the Chiefs to be the team to beat in the AFC. But, it's still gotta be WASP for me. He was getting obliterated throughout that game against the 49ers and kept firing. Legendary stuff right there. |

I look to see he’s wearing the same shoes, I look at his uniform browns jersey and say, “and of course, now I have to burn them” Then Patrick went off and the chiefs came back so I didn’t burn them |

So much this. Even seeing the team waiting in the tunnel before the game, they all looked preoccupied. Bucs had the perfect storm and capitalized.
