Patrick Mahomes can break two passing records on Friday | Pro Football Talk
Mahomes has 291 touchdown passes in his NFL career (245 in the regular season and 46 in the postseason), and can break the records both for the most in his first nine NFL seasons and for the most before turning 30 years old.
The current record for the most touchdown passes in a player’s first nine seasons is 293, set by Peyton Manning. Mahomes needs just two touchdown passes this season to tie Manning’s record and three to break it. It’s safe to say Mahomes will break that record this season.
Mahomes’ 245 regular-season touchdown passes are tied with Dan Marino for the most by any player before turning 30. Mahomes turns 30 on September 17, so he needs to throw just one touchdown pass in either Week 1 or Week 2 to move ahead of Marino and own the record by himself.
Chiefs face travel chaos in Brazil, as hotel is ‘hours away’ from stadium | The Sun
It will not be smooth sailing for the Chiefs as they will be forced to drive two hours to Arena Corinthians before their game.
Speaking on the “New Heights” podcast, Kelce said, “I know the stadium’s two hours away from the hotel.
“That’ll be a unique experience driving to the game for two hours, the old college football way that we used to drive.
“We were dealt a hand, and we gotta play it.”
Despite the additional travel, the three-time Super Bowl winner believes that it will provide additional incentive to perform.
“It is what it is,” Kelce continued.
Justin Herbert delivers clear message of respect for Chiefs | A to Z Sports
Right before practice in São Paulo on Wednesday, Herbert admitted: The Chiefs are a great team who deserves tons of respect.“They’re a very good team. We’ve got so much respect for them as opponents,” Herbert said. “They’ve had so much success in the NFL for years, and it’s a great opportunity for us to go out there and test ourselves. We’ve put in a lot of good work in the offseason and through camp, so we’re just looking forward to going out there and having a great experience.”
To beat the best, the Chargers know they have to be at the top of their own game. Even then, especially after losing left tackle Rashawn Slater to a patellar tendon injury, it’s a hard proposition.
“We have to be at our best if we’re going to compete with them, and we know how good they are and how well they play,” Herbert added. “For us, it’s about having a great week of practice, which we’ve done so far, going out there and executing, and doing everything we can on Friday.”
