pWotD Episode 2840: Patrick Mahomes Welcome to Popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 278,617 views on Sunday, 9 February 2025 our article of the day is Patrick Mahomes.Patrick Lavon Mahomes II ( mə-HOHMZ; born September 17, 1995) is an American professional football quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League (NFL). Mahomes has led the Chiefs to seven consecutive AFC Championship Game appearances and five Super Bowl appearances since becoming their starting quarterback in 2018. He is one of five quarterbacks in NFL history to win three or more Super Bowls as a starter. Mahomes is widely considered one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time.Mahomes played college football for the Texas Tech Red Raiders, winning the Sammy Baugh Trophy as a junior after leading the FBS in passing yards and total touchdowns. He was selected 10th overall by the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2017 NFL draft and spent his rookie season as the backup to Alex Smith. In 2018, after the Chiefs traded Smith, Mahomes became the starter and threw for 5,097 yards, 50 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions. He became the first quarterback to achieve over 5,000 passing yards in both college and the NFL, and joined Peyton Manning as the only players to record 5,000 passing yards and 50 touchdowns in an NFL season. For his performance in his first season as a starter, he won the NFL Offensive Player of the Year and NFL Most Valuable Player awards, becoming one of four black quarterbacks to win the AP MVP award.In the 2019 season, Mahomes led the Chiefs to their first Super Bowl appearance in 50 years, defeating the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV. Mahomes was awarded the Super Bowl MVP for his performance, becoming the youngest quarterback and the second Black quarterback to earn the honor. In 2020, Mahomes signed a 10-year contract extension worth over $450 million, making it one of the largest contracts in sports history. That season, the Chiefs returned to the Super Bowl but lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV. In the 2022 season, Mahomes led the league in passing yards and touchdowns, won NFL MVP, and earned Super Bowl MVP after the Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII. He earned his third Super Bowl MVP the following year after guiding the Chiefs to a victory over the 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:32 UTC on Monday, 10 February 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Patrick Mahomes on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm long-form Gregory.

Scott Soshnick, Eben Novy-Williams and Michael Barr discuss a host of issues related to the business of sports, including the marketing and endorsement possibilities for Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the wake of his team’s victory over the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl. Mahomes, 24, the reigning NFL Most Valuable Player, was named MVP of the Super Bowl as well. One advertising executive said he stands to rake in up to $7 million more in annual endorsement income. Also discussed was one particular prop bet that had fans waiting until the very end of the game. It had to do with how many rushing yards Mahomes would total. His kneel downs at the very end pushed the total to the under. And also discussed is whether the NFL players would agree to a 17-game season as part of talks aimed at reaching a new collective bargaining agreement.

Mark Moseley on how he connected with the Murrell family and Five Guys~ "We loaded up in his car, went over to his dad's house, the rest is history. His dad jumped out of his chair about two hours later, grabbed my hand, and said, "Hey, let's make this happen. Let's have fun doing it." I'm still today, 16 years later, working on a handshake. That's how honest these people are. Jerry and Janie, they are some of the best people." Mark Moseley, NFL Most Valuable Player Placekicker - Washington Redskins - and Andy Ockershausen in studio interview Andy Ockershausen: This is Our Town. This is Andy Ockershausen with a very special, very dear friend, very successful ex kicker in the National Football League. There's not many of those that are still alive that were successful, but Mark Moseley then became a, and still has become a very successful business man. I think he's a role model for so many football players now. Mark played ... NFL Placekicker Mark Moseley: A kicker being a role model? Andy Ockershausen: He kicked for the Cleveland Browns, the Houston Oilers, and the SuperBowl Champion, Washington Redskin. Mark Moseley: And I was drafted by the Eagles. Andy Ockershausen: Is that right? Number one by the Eagles. Mark Moseley: My number was three. Andy Ockershausen: Oh, was that it? Mark Moseley: But I was drafted, what was it? In the 14th round. They had 18 rounds back then and I was ... Andy Ockershausen: You didn't play for them. Mark Moseley: I did my first, my rookie year. 1970, I played for the Eagles. Andy Ockershausen: Well, we missed that, but I didn't know that, but we forgive you for that. Mark Moseley: Well, now you know it. I know you don't forget anything. Andy Ockershausen: Mark, knowing you as a kicker and watching you all these years, you always had us in suspense. Will he or won't he? Fortunately, he did 300 out of 457 in his career. That's a tremendous successful rate. Scored a total of 1,382 points. He's been so successful and he now serves the best hamburger in the world with over 3,500 stores. Here comes Five Guys and Mark Moseley. Mark, welcome to Our Town. Mark Moseley: Thank you, thank you, thank you. I'm glad to be here. Andy Ockershausen: You know, we've been trying to get you for a long time, because 10 years ago we had a reunion of sorts with a lot of friends of mine and a party that we had at Comcast and did a show out of it. Mark was there and appreciated so much, but then to watch his career, I think that was the first time in public that I had the chance to say "Mark Moseley's with Five Guys." Because most of the audience, and we had a pretty good crowd there, guys you grew up with, did not know that. Mark, that was 10 years ago and you've been so successful. Mark Moseley: Yeah. Well, I think it was your 80th birthday, wasn't it? Andy Ockershausen: It was, correct. Mark Moseley: I believe. It was a great night. Andy Ockershausen: It was a fabulous party. Mark Moseley: You had a lot of good people that ... Andy Ockershausen: We had five Hall of Famers of the National Football League. I don't know why, they all needed work, I guess. God bless him, Sam Huff. We both have great feelings for Sam, and telling some stories about him. He's lost the edge now and he's really out there. It's so sad. NFL Hall of Famer Sam Huff - Friend and Mentor Mark Moseley: I tell you what, he's a great friend. Sam was known as the big hitter. He was the guy. For him to be friends with a kicker, was not real kosher. For some reason, Sam took to me and we've been friends ever since. Andy Ockershausen: That's good protection for you. Mark Moseley: Well, he was already retired when I came to Washington here in '74, but he was still doing the radio show. He was doing the games. I got to know him real well. I've participated in his golf tournaments for charities and his West Virginia Breeder's Cup. Andy Ockershausen: A good citizen, as you say Mark, like you were.
