Skip Bayless: “Mahomes may have peaked — are we entering his 10-year drought like Brady?”

In a fiery segment on his morning show, veteran sports commentator Skip Bayless stirred the NFL world with a bold comparison between Patrick Mahomes and Tom Brady — and not in the way most expected.
“We forget something: In the middle of all the Tom Brady praise, the Patriots didn’t win a Super Bowl for 10 years — from 2004 to 2014. They had three titles, then a drought, then three more. Mahomes now has three. So the question is: are we at the beginning of his 10-year hiatus?”
Bayless, known for his sharp and often controversial takes, didn’t question Mahomes’ talent, but he did challenge the notion that Kansas City’s dynasty is guaranteed to continue. With the AFC getting more competitive each year — featuring rising powers like the Ravens, Bengals, and Texans — Bayless argued that Mahomes could be facing the hardest stretch of his career.
“Mahomes is a generational talent. But history doesn’t lie,” Skip said on FS1. “Kelce isn’t at his peak anymore. The receiving core doesn’t scare anyone. And you can’t rely on magic forever.”
His statement sent waves through social media. Some fans blasted the take as premature, calling Mahomes “still in his prime,” while others conceded Skip might have a point: “Every dynasty falls eventually.”
All eyes now turn to Week 2, when the Chiefs face the Eagles in a rematch that could signal the direction of Kansas City’s season — and perhaps, the long-term fate of their dynasty. For now, Bayless has planted the seed of doubt. Whether Mahomes silences it or proves it true remains to be seen — on the field.
