A Nine Year Old Patrick Mahomes Unknowingly Provided Tom Brady With Some Bulletin Board Material

The Super Bowl matchup between the Chiefs and the Buccaneers is all about the most important position on the field. The QB’s are the biggest stars in the NFL, and there’s no bigger stars than Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes. One is at the beginning of his career, while the other one is at the end. Mahomes was born in 1995, while Brady was born in 1977.

Crazy age difference. So crazy that when Mahomes was nine years old, he was making Super Bowl predictions, and guess what, Tom Brady was playing in Super Bowls even back then.

Mahomes wasn’t backing Brady when he made his pick.] though.

“Eagles are a better team,” Mahomes told the Tyler Morning Telegraph.

February 2005: Patrick Mahomes II, 9, offered prediction in Tyler TX newspaper about Super Bowl XXXIX between the Patriots (QBed by Tom Brady) and the Eagles (coached by Andy Reid). Brady won his 2nd consecutive Super Bowl and 3rd overall. pic.twitter.com/RxyAaYfb7y

Sixteen years later, Mahomes is seeking his 2nd consecutive Super Bowl title, coached by Reid and facing Brady.

If Mahomes could go back in time would he take back his prediction?

All in good fun, but you can bet TB12 will file this away, and use it if he needs to.
