Patrick has a stronger arm, but Russell is able to do a lot of the same off-platform throws. I think you can see the influence of guys like Rodgers, Wilson, Favre, and Marino in Patrick’s game. He’s sort of a combination of all those guys.
Mahomes is the closest thing to Marino we have seen in the sense that most of these guys did not throw the ball at a phenomenal level until they were closer to age 30. Manning, Brady, Brees, Wilson, Rodgers, Favre, keep going through the list. Marino and Mahomes both showed GOAT level passing ability at age 23. Scary to think what Patrick will be when he reaches age 31 like Wilson. 7 more years to keep polishing his game!
