Patrick Mahomes reveals advice Tom Brady gave him after Super Bowl nightmare

Patrick Mahomes reveals advice Tom Brady gave him after Super Bowl nightmare

Patrick Mahomes has opened up on the priceless advice he received from Tom Brady on the back of his miserable performance at Super Bowl LIX earlier this year.

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback endured a nightmare outing in their crushing defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles, a result which ended their hopes of pulling off a historic three-peat.

In a rare off-night on the big stage, Mahomes, 29, threw two costly interceptions for the Chiefs – one of which was returned for a touchdown – and was sacked a total of six times as the Eagles ran out 40-22 winners. 

And almost five months on from that disastrous showing he has revealed Brady was recently on hand with some words of wisdom in the offseason.

‘I’ve talked to Tom a good amount this offseason, and it’s cool that he wants to give me advice,’ Mahomes said in an interview with Kay Adams for her ‘Up & Adams Show’. 

‘He doesn’t have to be like that, he’s such a good dude and I have so much respect for him and I’ll take any advice he gives me.’

While he didn’t go into specific details on any tactical advice he received, Mahomes explained how Brady urged him to continue being ‘authentic’.

‘He always talks about being yourself,’ he continued about the seven-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback. ‘Guys can spot when you’re not authentic and you’re not putting in the work. 

‘That’s something that he did every single day. That’s why guys respected him so much.’

Mahomes has drawn frequent comparisons with Brady in recent years after inspiring Kansas City to three Super Bowl triumphs in the past six seasons. With him at quarterback, the Chiefs have only missed out on an appearance in football’s end-of-season showpiece once since 2020.

He still needs to win another four rings to match the New England Patriots legend’s record tally, yet the man himself recently tipped him to go on and do so.

When asked by comedian Kevin Hart which current quarterback could duplicate his success, Brady said last month: ‘I just think Patrick – I love his mentality.

‘The great players that I’ve played with, Patrick has their mentality. He has the will to win. He’s got a desire every time he takes the field to be a great leader.

‘I listen to what guys say after they win, I listen to what guys say after they lose. Everything he says is the right thing.’

‘Having Tom, a guy like that say that, just motivates me even more,’ Mahomes said to Adams about that praise from Brady.
