Similarities between Tom Brady's Patriots and Patrick Mahomes' Chiefs - According to Patriots WR Julian Edelman

On the road to the Super Bowl LIX, someone spotted a similarity between the Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, and 7-time Super Bowl Champion and the former star quarterback of the New England Patriots, Tom Brady. That someone is the former wide receiver for the Patriots, Julian Edelman, who was a part of 3 Super Bowl wins in the kingdom led by the great Tom Brady.

WR Julian Edelman was caught expressing his thoughts about the Patrick Mahomes-led Kansas City Chiefs on the Rich Eisen Show

"How do the Chiefs remind you of you and your team back then?" asked Eisen.


Julian replied,





"They're situationally tight. You watch them on third down. You watch them in the red area. A lot of these games, when you get to this time of the year, they're not won by the team that makes the most plays; yeah, that's part of it. It's always the team that makes the least amount of mistakes. And that's what they do.”

Julian shared,


"They (Chiefs) play mistake-free, situationally tight, they lull you to sleep, and then, they beat you when they need to. And that's stuff that we used to do. It's been fun to watch them because that's how football's supposed to look."

Julian expressed,


"A lot of these teams are sloppy, when things get tough, trying to go for two-point conversions in the second quarter…like you're beating. That's you. That ain't them."
