Breakdown Patrick Mahomes

    Overview

  • A good quarterback can mean the world of difference in such a pass heavy league.
  • Experts don't even rank him among QB's. Either he is on a bye week or is just plain bad. Based on his stats from the past 30 days, he is currently ranked 9th with 324.60 total points (17.08 avg).
  • Currently 146.94 points behind the leader: Lamar Jackson
  • Average points in the past two weeks have increased by 4.2 PPG. If you don't have the confidence he can keep it up, then trade him for a sure thing.
  • QB Stats
