There’s no denying that Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs is one of the greatest quarterbacks of his generation for a variety of reasons. Not many guys have won multiple titles before they were 30 years old, but Mahomes has done that and more. He’s a force on the field and a personality off the field.

Mahomes has won titles, while other star quarterbacks, such as Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen, are still looking for their first. Now, it’s not completely their fault, because Mahomes has enjoyed a great roster of players around him, but it still says something big that Mahomes has been able to secure so many wins for the Chiefs.

Now, there’s a new set of numbers out that may seem a bit troubling to those in the Chiefs camp. It’s nothing to lose sleep over but worth studying.

Mahomes had another stellar 2024 season that bring the Chiefs all the way to the final game. However, in a PFF feature from Mason Cameron published on Friday, June 27, Cameron revels the top 10 10 NFL quarterbacks by time to throw, and he isn’t has high as one might expect on the tally.

In the piece, he looks at quarterbacks for both over and under 2.5 seconds. “While there’s more than one way to succeed in the NFL, one of the largest factors in a quarterback’s success is how much time they have to throw,” he notes.

Based on 2024 numbers, Mahomes comes in at No. 7 on the roster of quarterback for under 2.5 seconds, behind guys such as Joe Burrow, Russell Wilson, Baker Mayfield and Aaron Rodgers. He doesn’t even appear in the top 10 for over 2.5 seconds.

So, hopefully these numbers will improve during the 2025 season. Again, it isn’t something to lose a lot of sleep over but certainly something to watch.
