He might need another two or three to hit quadruple digits in order to help him hit the big 6,000. Mahomes reached 5,250 a season ago with just one 1,000-yard receiver (Travis Kelce). So all it would take to hit 6,000 is the sixth-most passing attempts in NFL history and Mahomes matching a career-best mark in yards per attempt. Brady (2021 and ‘22), Stafford (2012), Herbert (2022) and Drew Bledsoe (1994) have all thrown that many passes in a season before - Stafford and Bledsoe did so in 16 games.
If we go off Mahomes’s career-best 8.8 yards per attempt from 2018, it would take him 682 passes, which, while it’s a lofty figure, there’s at least some precedent. That’s eight more attempts than the record Brady set in 2022.
