Chiefs fans are roasting Troy Aikman’s old tweet about Patrick Mahomes

That aged well.

Statistically speaking, Troy Aikman has some of the more underwhelming credentials for a Hall of Fame quarterback. He’s never passed for more than 23 touchdowns in a season. His completion percentage is 61.5 percent. It’s easy to look at Aikman’s stats and pile on about how he was never in the same stratosphere as Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (he wasn’t).

Aikman does, however, have three Super Bowl rings, and he understandably holds that over Mahomes. But Aikman should remember that the internet doesn’t forget, especially when it comes to sports fans.

Back in September, a tweet from The Athletic Kansas City pointed out that Mahomes had already thrown 36 percent of Aikman’s touchdown total in 8 percent of Aikman’s career games.

The former Cowboys quarterback didn’t take kindly to the perceived statistical slight, so he responded, “Talk to me when when [sic] he has 33% of my Super Bowl Titles.”

Well, after the Chiefs’ 31-20 win in Sunday’s Super Bowl 54, Mahomes’ MVP-winning performance was good to get him to 33 percent of Aikman’s Super Bowl titles. And Chiefs fans wanted to have a word with Troy. The tweet went viral after the game.

At the very least, Aikman should have set the bar at 66 percent. Though, Mahomes will probably reach that next season.
