The guiding philosophy of Mahomes

“Reid says Mahomes is guided by a simple philosophy: Nothing’s impossible until we make it impossible. ‘Pat thinks that way. He likes that. He wants to be challenged with those new things. Anything’s possible—let’s go try it.'”

“Nothing is impossible until we make it impossible” is the guiding philosophy of Mahomes according to Chiefs HC Andy Reid. The no-look passes, the left-handed throw, the comebacks in the playoffs — all these moments were inspired by that belief.

Looking back on it, when people doubted Mahomes in 2018 because of training camp interceptions, it was silly. This was a time meant for mistakes and interceptions. Mahomes pushes the envelope during practice to see what he can get away with on the football field when things actually matter. It’s why Mahomes practices no-look passes, off-platform throws and so on. Then, when it comes to a time where something spectacular is required of Mahomes, he’s always prepared and never counts himself out.
