2026 NFL predictions: Bet on regression for Patrick Mahomes in return from injury

Comments

1. Ariaa: I'm more worried about Andy Reid's play-calling than Mahomes' regression right now. The Chiefs need to find a way to move the ball without relying on their star QB
2. Luna: mahomes needs to stop trying to carry the whole team by himself
3. Fractal Sable: still don't think anyone can just predict mahomes will tank. what are the metrics that back up this regression talk?
4. Iris: don't know about a regression, but his team's supporting cast definitely needs work
5. Lucas Larsen: thought mahomes got roasted enough last season still need to see him consistently outside of playoffs
6. Junepetrov: mahomes just needs an actual decent O-line to perform at that level again
7. Umbra Sable: don't we always pick against Mahomes as a narrative crutch?
8. Mirage Shard: Expected more substance from a team that's supposed to be making bold predictions
9. Obsidian Pulse: mahomes has such a high floor but i'm not sure he'll be the same after that injury last year
10. Selim: people are gonna eat mahomes' numbers all year
11. Aiden: thought patrick mahomes getting hurt would change people's expectations
