All of them for the most part

Leads Brady in yards per game, tds per game, rating in both regular season and playoffs

Is it about rings or not?

So you asked which stats were better and you didn’t like the answer?

Mahomes is gonna have to do it for another decade at least to catch Brady's stats. No, I don't like your cherry picking style of arguing just for you to make a stupid argument.

ETA: I'd like for you to state unequivocally that Mahomes is better than Brady. I don't think you will.

Mahomes absolutely is unequivocally better than Brady so far in his career, yes

he won't because Reid isn't coaching much longer.

And nevermind Tom took a Tampa team that hasn't won shite since 2003 to a SB victory year one.

This is a funny argument because Brady's numbers were pretty pedestrian at this point (by his standards anyway), but then he truly became elite for the following 12 years. Conversely, Mahomes is already trending down pretty significantly in a bunch of key categories while trending up in INTs. Mahomes is gonna have to turn it around pronto.

I agree if Mahomes trend continues he will end up below a lot of QBs who he is currently ahead of pace

That's a fair argument but what separates Brady from his peers was his longevity and versatility. He basically had three HOF resumes sandwiched into one career. You can't ignore that or assume anyone will maintain a pace to match those absurd totals.

And let's be honest. A lot of Mahomes magic comes from his athletic ability, reflexes and ability to improvise. Those attributes will erode as he gets older and we are already seeing signs of that. Some of the plays he made last night would have been highlight reels three years ago but now they are turnovers, sacks and incompletions. I wouldn't go so far as to say his great defense is carrying him, but they are helping to mask a decline. Plus, he's got "F-U" money. Some athletes, including Brady, are driven by something much deeper, but it's human nature to temper your tolerance against your bank balance.
