Mahomes has played in 5 playoff games. Record is 4-1.
First game against the Colts was rather routine. That's a game Jackson could win as well.
But the other 4?
Mahomes AFC Championship vs Pats. Game placed squarely on his shoulders. Down 14-0 at half. Down 17-7 after 3rd quarter. Puts team ahead not once, but twice in the 4th quarter. Should have been enough. Wasn't. Yet still gets it tied with only seconds to play. Loses coin flip. Game over.
Down 24-0 to Houston. Scores on 7 or so straight possessions to win going away.
Down 10 twice in AFC Championship to Titans. Wins going away late.
Down 10 late in Super Bowl after 2 second half INT's. Wins going away late again.
Mahomes has faced about as much adversity as he possibly could have in the playoffs, yet has answered the bell every damn time so far. Will he win everytime? No. Pats game proves that. But he most likely will be able to carry his team when the game is placed on his shoulders.
All of the great ones can do that.
With Lamar, that question is still out there.
