Mike Florio responds to Nick Wright's comments on Patrick Mahomes | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC
/ nflonnbc
Wright has a schtick he does for entertainment purposes on the show and, for sure, it’s overblown. But come on, bringing up the retirement question for a QB who’s 28 and currently the best in the game IS weird. And I KNOW you’re not a hater. But, it just is, objectively so. Btw, if you count the years between Patrick and his 45th birthday, there’s no reason to ask that question anytime soon. I’m guessing you didn’t have much to write about and a Mahomes story is probably as good a go to as anything.
There's nothing to say... You said first reid is retiring and now your saying a 28 year old is thinking about retiring when he's just reaching his prime. Makes no sense y not burrow or ????
You're talking about Pat like he's almost 40. Dude's not even 30 lol, what are you talking about?
Florio is like the guy at the office you cant get out of a conversation with
Doesn't the phone work both ways if that's your argument?
It’s also fair to point out that most of Florio’s Chiefs takes are about how soon he can see the dynasty disabled and how he can hurry it along: When is Andy going to retire? When is Mahomes going to demand more money? When is Mahomes going to retire? Etc.
Yepp... nothing bt a pure hater that can't stand the rise of the next big thing closing in on Brady
When is Andy Reid going to retire too and Reid is going to be here for six more seasons. Pat is going to play 12-15 more seasons. Kelce two more seasons. Florio if you love the Chiefs man you have a funny way of showing. Stop talking about Reid retiring, Mahomes getting more money, let’s see, stop talking about Mahomes retiring. Maybe you should retire.
You forgot criticizing Kelce and Jones for not asking for more money etc
@@thatstheway2429 , yep he’s done that too.
Who is asking Patrick Mahomes how long is he playing? Mike I can't defend you on this one
It’s not that serious. It’s a simple question
@@dillMANbaby It's irrevelant though. If he said this about Kirk Cousins Aaron Rodgers Matthew Standford those QBs that would have made more sense
@@dondregray2523 Irrelevant to what? There are some people who would be interested in his answer
@@AP-sr2lr His 28! So you'll ask Josh Allen Joe Burrow or Lamar Jackson that question too? These guys are not even 30 yet.
@@dondregray2523 What, why, are you not curious? I am. It just a question. Good grief!
Florio still holds a grudge against the Chiefs from them beating his Vikings in the SB.
I live in KC area. I call the trash paper the Kansas City Scar. Hardly see copies for sale here as no one wants to see their trash. I like Wright most of the time and clearly he was wrong to say that about your analysis.
I don't hate the chiefs, but I do love their Super Bowl hangover.
Back2back...
It’s like asking Brady or Jordan when they will retire, when they were not even 30…and just started winning chips. When everyone knows they could play another 8- 10 years. It’s being stupid. Take an L Florio on this.
My only criticism of Mike is the same one I would have about a lot of sports wrters/media personalities. He doesn't make it clear enough when he is just speculating (made up) vs a story confirmed by 2 separate sources (OG reporting minimum requirement to publish a story). Also, that he thinks there is a huge difference between made-up and what he calls his educated guesses based on his experience. Quoting a judge from an old case... it's a distinction without a difference.
I think it's a little too soon to talk about Pat retiring. I don't think Mike is necesarily wrong for asking it. When he hits 35 or gets injured or his production drops off, then, yeah, that would be a question.
Mahomes is literally 28 years old what are even doing here 😂
Their is a huge difference between not playing as long as Brady and retiring soon, when you're 28, it's a ridiculous topic. It was just grist for the content mill, let it go
Have a filmed debate. Try a show once a week.
Nick Wr8ght is the biggest Chiefs "fan",is why he reacted that way
If i were to pick my poison Florio > Wright 😂
Take your L ❤
He’s gonna play for the next 15 years!
That’s all you have to say!
Yooo how is Florio this funny 😂😂 "10 paragraphs of word salad" dude you be having me weak lmao
Nick definitely was saying it light heartedly and jokingly. He was making a comment on how there’s nothing going on in football right now, so much so that we’re talking about the retirement of a 28 year old player.
And I feel like any publicity for PFT should be a good thing no matter what. Nick mentioned florio by name on national television and called him his friend
@@ericharden6832 I'm glad somebody actually understood he was joking
@@tylerasweet exactly. Florio obviously didn’t see the take, just going off what somebody told him the kc star said.
Right Nick was joking around. He wasn’t being serious. Fans need to stop taking his takes so seriously.
So he doesn’t actually believe Caleb is better than Lamar?
Meanwhile, Joe Burrow is 15 months younger than Mahomes and has already had two season-ending injuries alongside one Super Bowl appearance where the Bengals coughed up a lead and lost. So. . . HOW MUCH LONGER WILL JOE BURROW PLAY?
Why u even bring this up? This about Pat
The refs cost burrow that game helping kc
You just played this clown like a piano, in only a few sentences. Nicely done!
The answer to this is Mahomes has 3 rings. Burrow has 0 so he's still hot on the chase of 1. Depending on how he's wired, at some point Mahomes will have done it ALL. Why grind through more seasons? Not everybody is wired like Brady. I mean even Jordan took a break. It's a hard grind that requires the sacrifice of your family. It was easy for Brady to do in his younger years, but as you age, that becomes way more difficult. In the celebration video his kids made for him when Brady was inducted into the Pats HOF, his kids made it clear, they don't want him to play anymore. Mahomes will reach that at some point.
This is proof the bengals live rent free in chiefs fans heads
Bro is 28 and you talking bout retirement last year it was any Reid and Travis Kelce now you on Mahomes Chris jones next lmao
Reid,Kelce & Jones are closer than Mahommes. Only way that would change would be a major injury for Mahommes that wouldn't allow him to play to the standard he holds himself to.
@@kb9826Mahomes 10 year contract expires after 2029-30, Andy Reid’s new extension runs through 2029-30 and will be 72 by then and more than likely retire. Kelce is retiring in 2-3 years, Chris Jones in 3-5 and Steve Spagnuolo. I think it’s fair that these clues hint that Mahomes is planning to play 6 more years to finish his contract where he’ll then be 34-35 with very possibly 4-5 rings and 3-4 MVP’s. His legacy would be set having won 4-5 rings at a much faster pace than Tom Brady
@@Jeads5678 This is an exercise in futility. lol
Reid, Kelce, Jones, and Spags are way more closer to retirement than Mahomes is. But all of those guys are the core of the team though.
@@Jeads5678and then he’ll get another 5 year extension.
Florio, you are way to early about Mahomes retiring. This conversation should take place in about 6 years from now.
You’re right florio other people will eventually ask when hes gonna retire so why not be the first even if it’s ridiculous. Way to go man
Patrick Mahomes has plenty of football 🏈 left in him still at 28. It’s gonna come down to his health and his family. Since SB55 Veach vowed to provide him with protection and weapons for as long as he’s on the field, based on that he could play until he’s 45 or longer. He loves playing football 🏈 so I don’t expect him to stop anytime soon.
He's a pocket passer. He could play into his late 30s with ease. He also seems to really enjoy the game. This whole discussion is short bus material
@@mitchellcorona1757, extactly he does and Florio is messing himself up by coming up with this nonsense. Just enjoy Mahomes playing.
Maybe Mike should give Nick a call.
Is this due to old age? I don't remember florio being this absurd with his takes a few years ago. How can anyone take him seriously!? I think im officially florio'd out
Florio need to understand that Nick was making lighthearted friendly jokes.
Nick Wright believes Bronny deserves a place in the NBA and defends Lebuy James like he's his wife. You really think he makes lighthearted jokes? Those are sneers.
@@cesco1990 lol chill out
Yes he is. He does it all the time.
@@cesco1990, it’s not that serious.
@@cesco1990 Bronny does deserve a place in NBA. kid may not be a superstar but he is a role player.

love florio, love mahomes, love wright. i was here b4 mahomes and ill b here after mahomes. CHIEFS FAN 4 LIFE!!!! and GO ROYALS!!!
It’s the slow sports season so if we’re going to speculate on when Patrick will retire here’s a clue. His 10 year contract expires after the 2029-30 season, Andy Reid’s new extension expires after the 2029-30 season and will be 72 more than likely ready to retire and Mahomes will be 34-35 by then having played 12 seasons. Kelce is retiring in 2-3 years, Jones in 3-5 years as well as Steve Spagnuolo. They are playing out the rest of this decade hoping to be the first team ever to 3 Peat for ring 4 and could have 4-5 rings by 2030 and go down as the most dominant team of all time. Patrick will play out the rest of his contract and retire as a 4-5 time champ having won his 4th & possibly 5th ring at a significantly faster rate than Tom Brady with 3-4 MVP’s. His legacy will be set
Mahomes is not retiring in 5 seasons. That’s absurd. Mayfield, Watson, Goff, Dak, Carr, Geno, Russell Wilson, Cousins, Stafford, Rodgers are all older than Mahomes. Cousins just got a monster 3 year contract at the age you’re speculating he may retire. If we’ve learned anything from Mahomes, it’s that he’s never going to leave something at “good enough”.
@@thefiguredudeAll those names you mentioned have not accomplished nearly what Mahomes has accomplished in his first 6 years. The dude has 3 rings, 3 SB MVP’s & 2 league MVP’s already and you’re telling me in another 6 years where he will likely be a 4 or 5X champ & 3-4X MVP he won’t go out at age 34-35 with Reid, Kelce retiring in 2-3 years, Jones in 3-5 & Spagnuolo? The dude will have nothing to prove. Tom Brady has warped everyone’s minds into thinking everyone should & play into their mid 40’s. Patrick already said he will prioritize his kids over football. In 6 years his daughter will be 9. Brady could never let football go and fans praised it but look what it did to his family life 🤷♂️
My guess is 10 more seasons
I think part of the backlash from chiefs kingdom is this. At first they said don’t hype him up yet we don’t know and now that everyone knows we are going to start talking about it being over. Just let him have his day.
It comes down to injuries. Brady said once, the nfl is a demolition derby. At some point the body cant take that beating anymore. Kelce said on his podcast he has had 10 surgeries.
Has anyone ever talked about a (not even) 29 year old retiring when he hasn’t even been injured? It’s just really weird to talk about regardless
Yeah. Running backs maybe 😂
That's because no one has had the success PM has had and more people are interested.
Dude just take your L
This post is an L
This post is a L
exactly cmon man.
For what.. being right? 🤣
Calm down and stop being so sensitive.
Florio- projection is a really thing… and this video is a great example. B/c it’s totally not bull… you’re obviously reaching. So, you’re saying your point is, “hey one day Mahomes is gonna get questioned about retiring?” That’s your point, thats your argument… really? Why don’t you say the same thing about CJ Stroud, Caleb Williams, Joe Burrow? B/c its a point that is a total non story- unless you are trying to drum up click bait or cause controversy where there is none, or so sick of a team’s dominance and you are hopelessly looking toward a day when its over… dude ya need to drop and move on… you’re skating close to Skip… please don’t- you’re better than that.
Mahomes is better at quarterback than Brady, and earlier. Side note- Brady's "7th ring" was parachuting into a team full of all stars on every level. And don't even look at how the refs hilariously escorted him through so many close games that turned into 'wins'. Aging stars , like every QB, need a great supporting cast. But landing on a clearly ready-made Super Bowl competitive dream team doesn't cement anything in terms of "the greatest" QB. .5-6 QBs likely could have taken that TB team to a super bowl. It wasn't an "only Brady can take us to the SB situation". That's why as clear as his talent is, he probably knows he's only the greatest if you ignore a lot of situational tail winds he benefitted from his entire career. Yes, Mahomes had offensive weapons early on, and has finally gotten defensive support. But Mahomes 'didn't get the ball back' and "tough sht". (whereas Josh Allen didn't get the ball back and they changed the rules.) Mahomes has had a steeper climb, achieved more, and displayed as much or more raw talent than the talented Tom Brady.
Mike you have been calling for Chiefs to retire for a year or more. The Andy retirement talks then this what you think people going to say.
Florio is a typical lawyer. So full of himself thinks he's the smartest man in the room. He runs his mouth everyday critiquing players, coaches, owners, and officials. And when the tables are reversed, he whines like the little child man he is.
Florio digging the hole deeper. This is such a dumb take. He's 28. Nobody is thinking about asking mahomes when he's retiring. This is his wet dream because he wants the vikings or some other team to have a chance. My guess is it's the same reasoning why he had "sources" that said Andy Reid was going to retire a year ago.
Whoa whoa wait a min, so you're whole point to this video is being upset that your friend and buddy or at least someone who claims to be called you out on some bs commentary you made that is literally pointless and a captain obvious situation on air rather then call you directly and have a conversation? So you're mad he used the same tactics you did, he has a job to do on sports media television n to come up with stories so like you n in a week of no news n dead air rather then call you directly he said nah I'm going to broadcast this. You made up a pointless talking point because it's a slow news week, and are crying foul because others said fuck it, it is slow let me fire back at Florio to have something to cover. This is why people get irritated by you.
You are getting backlash because you are making a big deal out of a story that likely won’t be relevant for ten years. This is click bait, nothing more.
It's just talking Mike. It's summer time we bored
The problem with
Nick Wright is he’s Right
The problem with Nick Wright is he can't differentiate between "truth telling" and "hating". He can't handle the truth and he doesn't know football at all
None of these sports commentators do. All of them have issues with stuff you are talking about.
I disagree.
Nick is a gambler, and he knows his stuff.
I'd take Nick's opinions any day over SAS, Skip, and maybe even Shannon's.
Yes, Nick can be an irritant, but I'll give him his due on football.
As far as this, Florio beef is concerned. Florio is way off base.
Florio is taking an interview with Randi Mahomes for granted.
I love my mom, with all my heart, but I've been out from under her room since 1990.
Sometimes mom's are just talking without substance and are using emotions as their base.
Florio is reaching again.
@@EnterpriseNCC-1701 , I like Nick Wright he has a ton of enthusiasm I just could live without the 20-0 takes. Skip Bayless is awful. Stephen A Smith is horrible, Mike Florio is pathetic too. Nick has been really good. He has picked the Chiefs the last two times winning in the SB he’s got that right. He talked about the Bills retooling their roster he was right about that because they had to let go of several people with huge contracts and players that were injury prone. I still remember that year in 2022 when everyone said the Chiefs would finish in 4th place. He nailed it right, and said the Chiefs would win the AFC West that year. I couldn’t believe the takes I heard that year. These clown commentators really thought the Broncos and Raiders were going to be better then the Chiefs. Chargers I had no issues with because everyone picks them every year. But the Broncos and Raiders? People must have really lost their minds of what common sense they really had that year. They really thought Tyreek Hill being gone would affect the offense and honestly it didn’t.
@derekmathews1557
Facts.
Nick did correctly predict all of that.
I think he's correct on the Chargers this season, too.
Harbaugh will make a difference, but not immediately.
And yes, those crazy 20 and 0 takes have to stop.
@@EnterpriseNCC-1701 , that’s the way I feel too: I just don’t see that much of an immediate impact. But definitely next year for sure Harbaugh and the Chargers become a threat.
Nick Wright is the poster boy for what's wrong with NFL commentary. Same with Acho and his show. It's FOX/MSNBC level garbage, McDonald's for your brain.
Trust me all these commentators on these sports shows they all do it. Even the guys on SNF on NBC. Especially the nobody commentators lmmfao 😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's my opinion, based on my media consumption over the last couple of years, that Florio *is* s**t/pot stirrer. As far as Mahomes and the Chiefs goes, first it was "Andy Reid is about to retire, then it was "How can Mahomes be okay with not being the highest paid QB?", and now he's combined the two with this "Mahomes is already considering retirement" nonsense. Florio does it for clicks, views, and engagement.
However, as a KC area resident I can say that Florio is 100% spot on in his criticism/critique of the KC Star.
Well people know what he’s doing. He’s sick and tired of the Chiefs winning. He’s obvious about it too.
Whenever topics like this come up it makes me mad, not about the player, but brady. His marriage was already wrecked why not see how long a human can play qb at an adequate level. Perhaps the bucs weren't great, but brady had 4000+ yards. He was they guy whom should have played until his backup was better than him. When would that have happened? Maybe 46, 48 perhaps even 50. I'm a bit agnostic toward brady, but it's clear he was the guy to real life prove whats possible in human performance in terms of age for quarterbacking. He wanted to also, but he tried to play middle of the road so he retired too early & lost his marriage. He either should have retired in 2020 or 2027, nothing in between.
His brother publically SAd a woman on camera and leveraged his fanbase to harass her into silence and life ruination. While he sat by and did nothing. He isn’t a good person. He’s genuinely one of the worst people to grace the league. People not talking about him using his audience to get his brother off on a SA that was recorded is insane. It’s almost like Mike Florio gets paid by the league to pretend he’s a critic
LMMFAO to say that Patrick Mahomes is not a good person is the most absurd and outrageous take I have ever seen. Tell me what the hell does Mahomes retiring have to do his brother publically SAD a woman on camera? I will tell you? Absouletely nothing. Mahomes brother isn’t the good person here. Mahomes brother needs to be his own man, and stop expecting his mega star successful brother to bail him out of everything. Patrick Mahomes didn’t leverage his fanbase to harrass her into silence and life ruination. He did the best thing for his image and reputation by doing absolutely nothing. He absolutely sat by and did nothing. Why? Because getting involved in a scandal like that does not help Patrick. To say that Mahomes is the worst person to grace the league is pathetic. Do yourself a favor stop throwing Mahomes family members in his face acting like he is always bailing him out. That man got a job, a family of his own, he don’t have time to worry about his brother, or his father.
@@derekmathews1557 “He did a he best thing for him image and reputation which is nothing”. That right there is why he is a bad person. A good person would stand on their principles, even if it meant themself not benefiting. Also inaction is action. If your fanbase is doing something bad on your behalf, and you don’t stop them, you are responsible. Would you argue a cop who watches someone commit a crime has no responsibility if they choose to do nothing?
Well said Mike! I hate this “new” way of Twisting Words just to get a click. I live in KC, lifetime Chiefs fan, dropped the Star over 20 years ago. It’s crap journalism. I enjoy your show, your commentaries and (frankly) your support of The Kansas City Chiefs and Chiefs Kingdom. Don’t let the Bastards grind you down!

Florio and Wright, the 2 Biggest 'Hyperbole' Speaking Analyst on TV today...
So it's very interesting, as well as hilariously funny, that they're at odds over a random, who really cares, 'hot take' topic...
They both need to chill and sip on a Zanax martini😮
Mahomes v. Brady- There are statistics which are based in multi-season, pro rata extrapolations; shit which can only be eclipsed a number of seasons in the future. Yards, TDs, Super Bowl rings, etc. These are fun stats and measure a QBs momentum towards GOAT status but that's it. Let's call them MoStats; possibly MuhFuh Stats, MoFo Stats, or IHRTDIEM Stats ("If He Retired Today Does It Even Matter Stats," for short, the acronym smoosh Hearte Diem stats...maybe?...Lol). Let's stick with MoStats. Once again, fun to talk about but unknown. What can Patrick Mahomes do this upcoming season which would reasonably put him in the conversation as Co-GOAT. These are stats which would equal or eclipse any of Brady's stats, playoffs or otherwise. Here we are talking about a Chief-peat (playoffs, SB, repeat as necessary). Currently the Three-peat. However, MoStats would have to recognize that there could possibly be a Quad-Peat(?), thereafter maybe a Penta-Peat(?-I kinda like that one). This could go all the way to an Octo-Peat . Unfortunately, the Octo-peat would also signal the end of the world after the raising of the Lombardi Trophy. Who out there would like to undertake the cost-benefit analysis of an Octo-Armageddon scenario? Let me know. Back to Co-GOAT. Brady never Chief (3)-peated. Should Mahomes do so, discussion of Co-GOAT status is now reasonable. Thinking in the short-term, Is there a stat, a 2024 season stat, that will firmly place Mahomes at "GOAT Alone" status? There is only one...drum roll...A Three-peat while also going UNDEFEATED. Whatcha think? The only other stat I can think of that would crown PM to status "GOAT Alone” is - playing the entire season while employing only No-look, Left-handed, and Behind the back passes and getting to the playoffs.
quote - "I love the guy (mahomes)..he's the most valuable property the nfl currently has." EXACTLY. the question is: is Patrick mahomes valuable enough for the nfl to cheat/script games for?.. the answer is YES!! tom Brady was "the most valuable property" the nfl had... they cheated for him. and now they're doing the same for Patrick mahomes (the super bowl is proof). the nfl is a business first. and when you have "valuable property"--- you do what you have to do to keep that property in production. longer production = more $$$$ for the league. you think tom Brady playing to damn near 50 was by accident? 😆🤣....NOPE!
Mike. Mike. Mike. You are the antagonist here. If you do not like what our Chief's are doing then you sure have a really bad way of hiding it.
I point to two items now. 1. Mahomes II needs to ask for more money & 2. Mahomes II retire.
Listen Mahomes II knows he is worth more than h is making but he also knows that to keep and acquire great talent he needs to take less salary and make more endorsements. He learnt this from Brady. But here you go trying to make Chiefs look bad. Now you talking retirement when he is only 2 years past what is considered prime of 27 years. Leave Mahomes II alone. Admire his work. Call him out on mistakes yes. But stop trying to get him out of KC or make them fail. Are you a Brady fanboy fearing he will take him down? What is your damn angle??
Well said Mike! I hate this “new” way of Twisting Words just to get a click. I live in KC, lifetime Chiefs fan, dropped the Star over 20 years ago. It’s crap journalism. I enjoy your show, your commentaries and (frankly) your support of The Kansas City Chiefs and Chiefs Kingdom. Don’t let the Bastards grind you down!
I'm a fan of Florio and Simms. But Florio is getting the tone wrong lately. If anything, Nick was propping Mike's show up, not the other way around. And, 2ndly, it seems like Mike got his feelings hurt pretty easily a little like Aaron Rodgers does-- prickly and narcissistic much? And finally, why go after KC fans-- I don't know what KC fans are making you this angry with the subject but stop listening to them. I am a Chiefs fan and trust me, no one is offended at your take or really even cares. Its a slow time and Nick and Mcafee both gave you some good pub. Just take the win and stop sounding so bitter.
Amen !!!
Elon calls it "Citizen Journalism"
Well Elon. if bad and lazy journalism is where you set the bar, then you've succeeded.
Back in the day when "journalist" was a title of credibility, those roles were occupied by people that:
Checked sources (plural)
Wrote original content items
Didn't use lazy methods to replace actually writing cohesive thoughts
Wrote follow up pieces and/or took the ball further
Message to today's journalists (and other jobs)
Don't mail it in .
Don't be lazy.
Quality gets you paid into a long career. Quantity gets you a job to collect a pay cheque until yer replaced by another of the same.
On a personal note: I've been purging "media" sites
When i looked at my remaining list of sites, they were sites of credible journalists, not pretty figure heads who read off the prompter, or copy/paste content.
I mean, is this NOT what you wanted by even bringing it up? Why bring something up YEARS early if not for attention? We all know he won't play forever....DUH. So why bring it up now? He probably won't have to play til 45 to catch Brady 🤷
An amazing talent who over achieves in his sport early and doesn't want to risk further physical damage to his body could retire early. But Mike isn't looking at the passion and drive that gets players like Mahommes to where they are. No way he retires early.
Exactly. As long as Patrick doesn’t have a serious injury, particularly one above the neck, and he is still performing at an elite level, he will keep playing.
It’s easy to think of 5 good reasons why Pat would walk away early. But we know that competitors like him compete until they can’t. If he wasn’t like that. He couldn’t be Patrick Mahomes. A day is going to come where he’ll have no coach Reid, Spags, Trav or Chris Jones and he’d probably rather be with him kids or in the MLB. But he’ll still QB for the chiefs, even without the guys he loves, even without the same results. That’s how he’s built even if he doesn’t know that 100% yet. If it was about money or titles he could quit today.
Dang. Hit piece on the KC Star. Oil and corn is subsidized, journalism isn't. Gotta make some cash. And you characterized Patrick retiring like it's gonna be in the next few years. You're right, he's not going to play fifty years but he will probably play at least ten more. Just a little disingenuous to suggest we should start thinking about the post Mahommes era. I like it when you cover legal stuff though.
Mike,, you have to know Wright is mentally unstable over his pets??? Mahomes,, and his idol Lebron James.. He Become Frantically defensively...
Bruh, everybody player will retire one day 🤦🏾♂️ The sky is blue, no shit!! Why would you say that if you weren’t insinuating that he was retiring soon?! But the Kansas City Star comment was funny af 😂😂😂
If you want to count Patrick Mahomes out again, here is a few lines for you. “He isn’t hungry like other players because he has already won it all”, “He has other interest and has lost his focus on football”, “He will fail this year because Travis Kelce is getting old”, “The league has passed Andy Reid by and Patrick can’t carry the whole load by himself”. Consider this a starter kit for your year of doubting the Chiefs, again.
Hey Mike Florio, you showed how you feel about the Chiefs and Mahomes. Way back in Superbowl 54 when you made a comment about a certain 49er player taking a shot at Mahomes, basically saying hurt Mahomes on T.V. . But you love him , yeah right.
I agree with Florio on the paywall thing. I'm sick of every little hometown rag wanting money for half-assed articles. They can get money other ways. They never provide original thought or content. Only a fool pays for that crap.
I would say one thing on this subject. Tom Brady has people, including myself, thinking the standard is going to be to play until you are at least 40 at the QB position. Even with all the modern training and nutrition that was still not normal at all. Hell Tom's career was not normal overall. He had like 3 different careers at one point it was like a decade gap between rings. It will all depend on how Mahomes evolves his play style. Which I think he has already done to an extent. He knew playing backyard style QB was not something that was sustainable and has become more efficient. Only time will tell. The NFL is weird. He could win 2 more or never win another.
I know you said it's the slowest time of the season, but having JUST YOU talk in more videos during this time, has showed me that you need to dump Simms. You don't need him, we don't need him, he adds nothing. I don't watch his unbuttoned B.S and don't need to see him on PFT, cursing, insulting, interrupting, and making loser score predictions on Thursdays.
It’s amazing how head in the sand you’re being about this. You’re being called out because no healthy player in history has been asked about retirement at 28 as a QB. You know what you’re doing. You’re just looking for content to post. And you succeeded. It’s just silly journalism
Maybe if Florio would quit trying to retire Chiefs personnel, Nick would quit making jokes about it. I suggest FLORIO retire.
Florio, what are you yapping about?
You sound clownish.
Of course, Mahomes will one day retire, but the dude is only 28 going on 29...not 39 my guy.
You sound like a bitter hater.
Good on Florio for checking Nick and his BLATANT chiefs bias. To laughable levels. but to be fair I enjoy watching these two dudes come at each other since both have said less than favorable things about my team. So have at it. Haha
I'm sure Florio contacted Mahomes, like any good reporter would do, for comment on how long he's going to play before he did his show and wasted everyone's time on a useless speculation about how long Mahomes will play. Hopefully, Florio retires before Mahomes. I wish I could take away credit for a view on this video because I didn't watch it, but I can't.
Sounds like Florio got triggered with the situation. No one in KC subscribes to the star and it has been a joke for some time, especially since the days of Jason Whitlock. I think you've done some spurious stories on the Chiefs looking for some clicks, IMO. Am I saying this is the case here, no. But don't act like it's to much of a conclusion to say you don't do it either.
Pretty lame fella. He's 29 and obviously those questions will be asked in 6 YEARS!!! Off season boredom dude trying to create a story out of nothing.
LOL Mike Florio and Rich Eisen are really the only 2 people covering the NFL not vomiting out retakes and reaction content.. Nick Wright is the worst and that why he's been fox's C team commentator for ever
Florio… dude you’re always wrong. Pats literally entering the prime of his Career. Just get off it. You were wrong ab Reid, now this. What a chooch!!
It's a little early to talk retirement florio, especially with chiefs fans who went 50 freakin years and now want to glory a little in winning! Why even bring it up? You were the one who mentioned Reid retirement last year, other people pocked it up and then you said see! Others are talking about it too. Guess you just like stirring up controversy. Slow news and all.
Florio!
Your the same guy, who said maybe somebody can play through the whistle, and put Mahomes out, more or less.😢
Clown 1 arguing with himself about what clown 2 said about what clown 1 said.
Even the propaganda writers chuckled.
Let me explain it to you Florio. Nick mostly makes his money talking about the future of the Chiefs. You are driving your car into his lane, and break checking him. What do you expect exactly?
who cares man good grief people get way too sensitive about everything and i like mahomes but who cares man if he plays to 35,38,48 i dont give a damn, jesus i am so glad i am not fan boy nut job like other folks nick wright is particularly annoying crying about 'nobody believes in us" nonsense its just over the top man there are more important things to worry about
When will Mahomes get bored of abusing the entire league?? All we can hope for is that he gets bored of the NFL and takes up darts or badminton.
I get upset with anyone who calls him Pat, his name is GOAT MAHOMES. Get it right you bunch of gotdamn jabronies 😂😂
Florio has a point, maybe Patrick Mahomes doesn't want to be like Brady. Maybe he will play for 8 more years and then he stays with his family. TB 12 sacrificed a lot of family time in order to play football.
florio loves the chiefs and also he said he would stop covering the nfl if tyreek hill played another down lol; florio is being disingenuous here. he knows the reason he gets more push back than usual is bc he has had irresponsible and wrong reporting about kc for a while; hill, andy's retirement, etc. grow up a bit.
I am a giant Chiefs fan. I cannot stand Nick Wright..... there is an inverse relationship with the Chiefs success and his likeability. I know many other Chiefs fans that cannot stand him as well. He is embarrassing and cringey
The irony of florio going with the "you should know better" argument when he himself knows better than to think he wouldn't get called out for making such an unbelievably stupid take is just incredible lol
Bought me over by bashing the KC Star
Florio is a joke. All year long saying the Chiefs were getting all the calls because Taylor Swift is a fan. Andy’s going to retire. Mahomes is gonna retire.
I get it, it's the off-season and you're struggling for nfl content. To bring up Mahomes and retirement before he's thirty is a stretch bro.😂😂
The Chiefs and Mahomes had a mediocre regular season by their own standards. Being beaten by the Raiders Christmas Day springs to mind...
Funny how Nick should know better but you aren’t above throwing him under the bus 😂 odd how the standard seems to change when you gotta hold yourself accountable
Florio was on top for 2 minutes with that anti trust lawsuit then goes straight back to being a clown show. Hes 28 years old, also you are the biggest chiefs hater that exists besides maybe skip bayless.
Isn't he a multi-millionaire? You're worried about his future. I think he has everything well under control.
Randi Mahomes spouts off at the mouth any chance she gets and spews nonsense. Why tf would anyone take stock in what she says? She's not Patrick himself and sons tend to tell their parents what they want to hear. At the end of the day it's Pats decision and anyone who isn't Pat himself speculating on this topic is talking out of their ass.
Friendly reminder that there are rumors that Florio is seriously considering retiring.
I mean, how can he continue to keep doing this? He’s clearly past his prime.
