re: How many losses does Patrick mahomes get to become MVP?

If Mahomes got hurt the Chiefs wouldn't win a game this year. So I'm not sure what point you're trying to make. Their defense is awful and I doubt the guy behind Mahomes is going to be able to put points up.

So yes, Mahomes carries the Chiefs because he gets nothing from his defense similar to Brees did in his big stat years. Just face it if New Orleans wasn't such a small market they would've gave it to Brees a few times. Mahomes will get it since the media loves him and sees the future NFL in him even if KC isn't exactly a big market either.
