    Wasn't the whole point of the ten-year deal that over time his pay be a progressively smaller and smaller percent of the salary cap? According to Forbes, he's making $20 million per year off the field with endorsements from State Farm, Proctor & Gamble, Oakley, Adidas, BioSteele, Bose, DiecTV, Essential Water, Whoop and Electronic Arts. He is part of an ownership group that's opening 30something Whataburger restaurants in the KC region. He owns part of the other 3 pro sports teams in Kansas City. Hell, he just bought a professional pickle ball team. He could make the league minimum and still have Scrooge McDuck levels of money.

Its not about the money for him. He wants to pass Brady. And you cant do that taking up a majority of the cap to just him.

    I have to laugh at the finger shaking vibe of "Oh Chiefs, the bill is going to come due! He's going to put his foot down! Uh oh!"
    Whatever Pat wants, Pat would get from KC. If he wanted $60 million/year, he would get it. Everyone involved is aware. This is how a high functioning, high performing organization operates. I'm a Chiefs fan, so I've seen decades of dysfunction. Selfishness everywhere. Blaming everywhere. Egos everywhere. LOSING everywhere. It's weird in modern sports, but this is what all parties understanding the goal and the league rules and what it takes to win consistently looks like. When the rules change, they'll all change strategy to win within the new parameters.
    It's not a secret formula, it's just other teams and other quarterbacks aren't ready to go that route yet. Mahomes is one of many former "highest paid QB's" already anyway.

    This is how the Spurs essentially built a 20 year dynasty. A smart franchise with a true superstar who has enough character and clear goals who's OK with taking less money so the front office can build around him and make smart moves to make sure they have a chance every year to compete. That's what Duncan did.
    And that's why Kobe essentially fell out of contention to get ring #6, because he signed a massive deal and the Lakers couldn't afford to go after major talent. And that's why the Spurs were ALWAYS a contender from 1998 - 2016.

    He is not the 7th or 9th highest "paid" QB. He's the 7th or 9th in salary FROM HIS TEAM. He's the highest "paid" QB playing b/c of his endorsements. More winning gets him lots more endorsements and that is many times more important over his lifetime than making a few million more from his team.

    When all said and done….If Mahomes keeps this pace for 10 years He will be considered the best to ever do it! Every year since he’s been starting…he’s had different wrs and rb’s…and the first few years his defense’s were horrendous! His ability to extend a play is mind boggling! He gets hurt in the divisional round…and in both Championships it was his runs that set up the game winning plays! His knee was literally dislocated and was back in like 2 weeks a few years ago! Tough Smart accurate clutch that’s a good human being! He’s Him!

      Just another 6 rings, 25 postseason wins, and 188 regular season wins to pass the GOAT. Just needs to average a super bowl win every other year until he's 40 and 12 wins per season until he's 43 without missing any time due to injury. No biggie.
