Sunday Superstars: NFL's Week 17 icons include Patrick Mahomes, Blake Jarwin, Josh Allen, Baker Mayfield & more
The MVP is locked down.
That could have been said months ago, but when Patrick Mahomes II joined the 50-touchdown, 5,000-yard club on Sunday against the Raiders it's a lock for the record books. That's an exclusive stat combo that just one other player has done in NFL history -- Peyton Manning when he set the single-season record for both stats in 2013. Mahomes came up five TDs short of tying the record and his yardage mark was the eighth best in history behind campaigns from Manning, Brees (four times), Tom Brady and Ben Roethlisberger. Every one of those QBs was in their 30s when those dominating years happened, meanwhile Mahomes is just 22 years old.
His Rookie Cards and autographs can be found throughout 2017 NFL and draft pick products -- he's got more than 2,500 different cards so far and close to 1,000 different autographed cards. Nearly all of them are from Panini America, though he does also have ink from Leaf Trading Cards and SAGE. >> Check out his autos on eBay There's no doubt that this is peak Mahomes right now ... but could there be more upward momentum before we see a dip?
