Yet his words about his teammates and individual awards have sparked speculation, leaving fans curious about what the star quarterback truly thinks.

The post Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes offers blunt message about NFL Top 100 appeared first on ClutchPoints.

Patrick Mahomes might be one of the most personally decorated quarterbacks in the NFL, but he would tell you that he’s only concerned about winning more Super Bowls with the Kansas City Chiefs.

The three-time champion was recently asked for his thoughts on the NFL Top 100 list, and did not exactly hold back when describing the minuscule level of importance he assigns to it.

“I know it’s a year-by-year thing, and so there’s a lot of great quarterbacks, a lot of great players in this league,” Mahomes said on the Up & Adams show. “They can rank me wherever they rank me. At the end of the day, all I’m trying to do is win Super Bowls. And I don’t care where I am on that list, no offense.”

The Texas native was ranked fourth on last season’s top 100 list, and while he enjoyed a fruitful 2024, it did not end with a Lombardi Trophy. Kansas City fell to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX, and has been facing a number of questions from fans and pundits this offseason.

In some ways, Mahomes’ individual season mirrored what the Chiefs were able to accomplish. He tossed 26 touchdowns and 11 interceptions en route to a 67.5 completion percentage and 3928 total passing yards.

These marks are certainly good, but the 29-year-old signal caller has had more impressive statistical campaigns. In a similar fashion, a Super Bowl appearance is an accomplishment that most teams would relish, but one that falls short of the standard for this iteration of the Chiefs.

The 2025 NFL Top 100 has started to roll out to the public, and 10 players will be revealed weekly. Mahomes has been ranked inside the top eight each year since the 2019 version, and fans will likely have to wait a few weeks before seeing where he stands this year.

Despite the ongoing discussion surrounding individual accolades like the NFL Top 100, Mahomes continues to emphasize team success over personal recognition. “I’ve never really played for awards,” he added. “It’s always been about the guys next to me, the locker room energy, and making sure we leave everything out on the field for the Chiefs organization and our fans.” This mindset has helped Mahomes maintain consistency and leadership, even in seasons where Kansas City has fallen short of the ultimate prize.

Analysts note that Mahomes’ approach sets him apart from other elite quarterbacks who may focus heavily on personal stats or rankings. By keeping his eyes on the team goal—winning Super Bowls—he fosters a culture of accountability and unity within the Chiefs. It’s a philosophy that has contributed to Kansas City’s sustained success over the past several years, even amid injuries and roster changes.

Fans, meanwhile, continue to speculate about where Mahomes will land on the 2025 Top 100 list. His fourth-place finish in 2024 reflects both his talent and the high expectations he faces annually. Yet, for Mahomes, the number on a list is far less significant than the pursuit of another Lombardi Trophy, and he’s made it clear that any ranking won’t change the intensity and focus he brings to each game.
