Patrick Mahomes BLASTS Lamar Jackson as a ‘Quitter’ After Ravens’ Humiliating Loss to Chiefs
In the aftermath of the Kansas City Chiefs’ dominant 37-20 victory over the Baltimore Ravens, Patrick Mahomes made headlines not just for his historic performance on the field but for his fiery comments off it. During a postgame press conference, Mahomes took direct aim at Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, calling him a “quitter” and making a series of inflammatory remarks that have ignited debate across the NFL community.
Mahomes began his postgame remarks with an unprecedented level of confidence, referring to himself as “Daddy Mahomes” and claiming ownership over Lamar Jackson’s performance. He didn’t hold back, accusing Jackson of “faking an injury” after struggling against the Chiefs’ defense.
“Lamar Jackson, I want you to refer to me as your daddy from now on. You’re going to call me Daddy Mahomes moving forward because I own your trash ass,” Mahomes said. “I just blew out his back so hard that he had to tap out and fake an injury. He got sacked so many times, he might as well change his name to Lamar Saxon.”
The comments didn’t stop there. Mahomes went on to belittle Jackson’s accomplishments, comparing him to NBA player Russell Westbrook, a talented but often criticized figure for his perceived inability to lead teams to championships.
“What a quitter. He literally sat on the bench like a crybaby and quit on his team. This clown will never win a ring. I guarantee you that. He is the Russell Westbrook of the NFL. Just a stat padder like Westbrook. Nothing special.”
The postgame interview took an even stranger turn when a fan interrupted to express frustration over losing $5,000 betting on Lamar Jackson and the Ravens. The fan admitted to doubting Mahomes and trusting Jackson, only to regret the decision after the Ravens’ poor performance.
“Patrick, I just lost $5,000 United States dollars on Kali because I thought Lamar would cook your ass. They only gave you a 42% chance of winning on there today and I got fooled. I will never trust that quitter again with my hard-earned funds. I’m sorry for doubting you, my king. Thank you.”
Mahomes showed no sympathy for the fan, doubling down on his criticism of Jackson and delivering a sharp rebuke.
“Well, I don’t feel sorry for you because if you’re going to be dumb enough to trust a ringless stat-padding bum over the GOAT Patrick Mahomes, then you deserve to lose all your money, you dumbass. Lamar Saxon just made you go bankrupt. And if you’re going to attend my press conferences, then you need to start calling me Daddy Mahomes before you ask me a question.”
Mahomes’ comments have sparked widespread reactions across the NFL world. Fans, analysts, and players have weighed in on the quarterback’s uncharacteristically brash tone. While some supporters praised Mahomes for his confidence and swagger, others criticized his remarks as unsportsmanlike and disrespectful.
Critics argue that taking personal shots at another player, especially one as accomplished as Lamar Jackson, crosses the line of professional decorum. Jackson, the 2019 NFL MVP, has faced his share of criticism throughout his career, but many believe Mahomes’ comments were unnecessarily harsh.
On the other hand, Mahomes’ defenders claim that his comments reflect the competitive fire that makes him one of the NFL’s greatest players. Coming off a historic performance in which he threw four touchdowns and surpassed 250 career passing TDs, Mahomes had every reason to feel confident.
While the controversy surrounding Mahomes’ comments will undoubtedly dominate headlines in the coming days, the Chiefs’ victory over the Ravens speaks volumes about the team’s resurgence. With Mahomes leading the charge, Kansas City looks poised to reclaim their position as one of the NFL’s elite teams.
As for Lamar Jackson, the Ravens quarterback will have to silence critics on the field. Whether or not he responds to Mahomes’ remarks directly, his performance in the weeks ahead will be closely scrutinized.
Patrick Mahomes’ postgame comments have added fuel to the rivalry between the Chiefs and Ravens, creating a storyline that will linger throughout the season. Whether you see his remarks as confidence or arrogance, one thing is clear: the Chiefs are back, and Mahomes is playing with a chip on his shoulder.
As the NFL season unfolds, all eyes will be on these two quarterbacks. Will Mahomes continue to dominate and lead the Chiefs to another Super Bowl? Can Lamar Jackson use this controversy as motivation to elevate his game? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain—the drama is far from over.
