When you're a 3x Super Bowl champion like Patrick Mahomes, there's a lot happening behind the scenes. His success can be attributed to the influence of other great quarterbacks like Tom Brady, Matthew Stafford, and even Tony Romo in some way. Both Brady and Stafford have Super Bowl wins under their belts, unlike Romo, but Mahomes remains a devoted fan of the former Dallas Cowboys quarterback, which isn't surprising given his Texas roots.

During a recent appearance on the IMPAULSIVE podcast with Logan Paul, Mahomes discussed various aspects of his NFL journey, including his bond with Travis Kelce and, importantly, his thoughts on the GOAT (Greatest of All Time) debate. He expressed how players like Brady serve as inspiration for achieving remarkable milestones in football.
