The Kansas City Chiefs were able to get the win in Week 1 of the regular season against the Baltimore Ravens, and a lot of it was due to the very solid play of their superstar field general.<\/p>\n
In a recent article by Pro Football Network’s Kyle Soppe, he grades the performances of each quarterback in the league in Week 1 of the season.<\/p>\n
Patrick Mahomes comes out with the seventh highest grade with a 71 out of 100, as Soppe gives him a B-minus. “Mahomes wasn’t great when the game was within one score in the fourth quarter last season. I’ll take it a step forward – he was actively bad in such spots, ranking 27th in passer rating. For reference, Mac Jones and Will Levis were better, “Soppe writes.<\/p>\n
“Against one of the best defenses in the league on Thursday night, Mahomes corrected those flaws: 5-for-5 for 68 yards and a touchdown.”<\/p>\n
While Mahomes did throw an interception in the win, his stats otherwise looked fantastic, as we have come to expect from the two-time MVP. He finished the game with 298 passing yards and a touchdown, and he did so while only missing eight of his 20 passes. He will be looking to prove this ranking wrong in the Chiefs’ Week 2 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
