The success and greatness of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes have impressed fans and critics that follow the league daily. He\u2019s earned the trust of his teammates and the respect of the defensive players trying to stop him weekly.<\/p>\n

A defensive player that has seen Mahomes\u2019 skills up close at least twice a season is Las Vegas Raiders EDGE Maxx Crosby. The Raiders pass rusher shared his thoughts on facing Mahomes recently during a conversation with The 33rd Team<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe thing that makes him unique is that he\u2019s never gonna give up on a play,\u201d said Crosby. \u201cYou know, a lot of quarterbacks, they\u2019re taught from a young age, you know, the pocket breaks down, throw the ball away, get rid of it. He literally does the opposite of what I feel like quarterbacks are taught, but that\u2019s what makes him, him. He\u2019s a unique talent. He can make every single throw; He can throw with both hands, sometimes. He scrambles; he\u2019s not crazy fast. But he knows how to make people miss.\u201d<\/p>\n

“Honestly, the way I look at it, he’s like the Steph Curry of football.”<\/p>\n

Patrick Mahomes is truly on another level ????<\/p>\n

Mahomes fought through a high ankle sprain during Saturday\u2019s divisional-round victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. He improvised and made unique highlight plays to compensate for the injury. Crosby says that Mahomes\u2019 ability to keep plays alive and do those special things on the field likens him to Steph Curry.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe knows how to keep the play going,\u201d said Crosby. \u201cHe\u2019s just one of those people that he\u2019s like, honestly, the way I look at it, like he\u2019s like the Steph Curry of football. You know, I feel like that\u2019s the perfect example. Like Steph Curry, the way he takes shots like nobody\u2019s ever done the things that Curry did until he started doing them, and I feel like Mahomes is exactly that way. He\u2019s definitely a generational guy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mahomes and the Chiefs swept Crosby\u2019s Raiders this season, including the regular-season finale that clinched a first-round bye and home field in Sunday\u2019s AFC Championship Game. The world will be waiting patiently for updates on Mahomes\u2019 ankle as the much-anticipated rematch with the Cincinnati Bengals draws near.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
