'He didn't lay an egg': Cris Carter says Patrick Mahomes still in G.O.A.T. race with Tom Brady
Cris Carter backs Mahomes in Brady debate, says Super Bowl losses don't tell the full story. (Image credits: IG/X) Patrick Mahomes may carry two Super Bowl losses on his back, but Hall of Famer Cris Carter is making waves with a bold assertion: the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback shouldn't be judged solely by those numbers. In a sports culture obsessed with rings, Carter is urging fans to look beyond the box score. While Tom Brady's seven titles are etched in history, Carter believes context—and not just championships—should define greatness. And according to him, Mahomes still has a real shot at the throne. How coaching and defense gave Brady the edge Mahomes didn't have On his Fully Loaded podcast, Cris Carter broke down the differences between Brady's early dominance and Mahomes' Super Bowl heartbreaks. He questioned how much credit Brady deserved for the Patriots' first three Super Bowl wins, suggesting defense and coaching played a larger role. 'The only difference between Mahomes and Brady now is just Belichick winning a couple more three-point games and Adam Vinatieri kicking field goals,' Carter said. 'Brady wasn't on the field.' By drawing attention to the nuances of team dynamics, Carter reignites the debate about how quarterbacks should be judged—purely on wins or overall performance. Why Carter refuses to blame Mahomes for Chiefs' collapse Carter addressed the criticism surrounding Mahomes' performance in his Super Bowl losses, particularly the recent one against the Eagles where he threw a costly pick-six to Cooper DeJean. It marked the second time Mahomes has thrown a pick-six in a Super Bowl defeat, yet Carter dismissed the narrative that Mahomes choked under pressure. 'He didn't lay an egg in the Super Bowl,' Carter emphasized. Instead, Carter painted a picture of a quarterback battling uphill, without the support he needed in the biggest moments. He criticized the Chiefs' offensive line and game plan, suggesting Mahomes was left to fend for himself. A G.O.A.T. race still within reach Despite the setbacks, Carter isn't closing the door on Mahomes' place in NFL history. With two MVPs and three Super Bowl appearances already under his belt, Mahomes remains one of the most electrifying athletes in sports today. Carter believes the Chiefs QB can still challenge Brady's legacy—especially if fans start weighing performance, not just rings. 'He's still more than capable of making the G.O.A.T. race a close one before it's all said and done,' Carter declared. It's a reminder that greatness is often about more than just wins. In a league where careers are defined by narratives, Carter is making sure Mahomes gets the credit he deserves.

Patrick Mahomes has won two Super Bowl titles—LIV and LVIII—with the Kansas City Chiefs. 2. Is Mahomes still in the G.O.A.T. conversation? Yes. Despite two Super Bowl losses, many experts believe Mahomes is still on track to be one of the greatest QBs in NFL history. 3. What is Patrick Mahomes net worth in 2025? As of 2025, Patrick Mahomes' estimated net worth is over $90 million, bolstered by his $500M + Chiefs contract, equity deals and multiple brands endorsements.

Hugely popular burger van owner opening new restaurant He will join forces with his fiancée's thriving food business to open their first restaurant together Outside the new business which opens on July 30 (Image: Phil Fraser ) A hugely popular burger van owner is joining forces with his fiancée, who runs her own thriving food business, to open their very first restaurant together. Phil Fraser's Food Anarchy has won legions of fans who have followed his van around its regular locations at Dunvant, Gorseinon, Marina Market, and Mumbles Market, with popular menu items including gourmet burgers, loaded hash browns, and loaded fries. Mr Fraser's fiancée Katie Powlson is also a favourite at food markets with her business Happy Little Cake Company serving up an array of cakes and sweet treats. Now the pair have decided to team up and launch their first business Fully Loaded. Based in High Street in Gorseinon it will officially open its doors on Wednesday, July 30, and will trade from Wednesday until Saturday from 9.30am until 2.30pm. It will serve up loaded hash browns, loaded fries, sandos, cakes, and bakes. A queue forms outside Food Anarchy at Swansea Marina Market (Image: WalesOnline ) Discussing the new venture Phil said: "It is a collaboration between Katie's company and mine. We've wanted a property for a while and this was Katie's brainchild. Someone from the market gave us the heads-up of this property and we went and saw it then started putting it together. "With Gorseinon being so good to us with the van on a Friday night it felt well worth a go. There's going to be the loaded hash browns, loaded fries, and instead of doing burgers we'll be doing sandos to make it more of a daytime thing. From Katie's side we'll be doing cakes and bakes and we have a coffee element coming in as well. Article continues below "The sandos are not going to be your standard tuna mayo sandwich. For instance we had the Nigella burger and we can do a version of that in a sandwich. It'll be unapologetic big-flavoured sandwiches. "There will be brownies and blondies and tarts and things like that, and I know Katie wants to do fresh cinnamon rolls daily." Loaded hash browns will be sold at Fully Loaded (Image: Phil Fraser ) Sandos will also be on the menu (Image: Phil Fraser ) Describing why they picked Gorseinon as a location Phil said: "Gorseinon is just fantastic. The people have been so supportive of it and the reaction online, or from people coming up to the van, we always have people asking: 'When's the shop opening?'. "It sounds like we've got quite a bit of support but all we can do is give it a go. You can do everything right and still fail but if you don't give it a go you're never going to have a chance. "It's not going to be your traditional café but it will be somewhere you can go and get some really good food or a coffee and a cake, completely unpretentious. Article continues below "The food van will carry on as usual on Tuesday nights in season at Dunvant, Fridays outside Toasted, and Sundays at the markets. We're going to try not to affect our businesses too much – it's just a case of having a base now and somewhere we can work from. "It feels very natural. We've been ready for this for a while but you've got to wait for the right opportunity."

"A spoiled child": Aaron Rodgers slammed as overrated and selfish in final NFL season amid Tom Brady comparisons
Aaron Rodgers' final NFL season with the Steelers is generating mixed reactions (Imagn Images) Aaron Rodgers is heading into his final NFL season, now wearing a Pittsburgh Steelers jersey, but the four-time MVP's swan song is already facing scrutiny. At 41, the future Hall of Famer has made it clear this will be his last ride, but instead of a universal send-off, his legacy is under fire—especially from legends and analysts who aren't sold on his leadership credentials. Steelers embrace Aaron Rodgers , but NFL legends push back on his greatness The Steelers have rolled out the red carpet for Aaron Rodgers. Head coach Mike Tomlin praised the veteran quarterback, saying, 'I mean, read his resume. We're excited about him being here.' Tight end Pat Freiermuth also drew comparisons between Rodgers and Pittsburgh icon Ben Roethlisberger, adding, 'I think he's similar to Ben in a way, where you know he sees the game in a certain way.' — Steelersdepot (@Steelersdepot) However, not all football voices are as supportive. Hall of Famer Cris Carter took a public shot at Rodgers on the Fully Loaded podcast, questioning his football intelligence and influence in team meetings compared to other greats. 'People don't feel that same way about Aaron Rodgers because his knowledge of the game is not the same as these guys,' Carter said, referring to Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. 'He sounds like a spoiled child. ' Carter argued that Rodgers lacks the elite mental grasp of the game that defined Brady's and Manning's success. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Most Beautiful Women In The World Undo He claimed Rodgers didn't command the same respect in the Jets' locker room, saying, 'They would have been like, 'Guess what we're getting ready to do? What that guy right there said.' Manning conducted meetings in Denver. Brady did the same in Tampa Bay.' Skip Bayless and Terry Bradshaw pile on Aaron Rodgers' reputation Rodgers' image as a "diva" resurfaced once again when Skip Bayless blasted the Steelers for signing him. Even more brutally, Steelers legend Terry Bradshaw said Rodgers was a bad fit for the franchise and took a swipe at his off-field persona: 'That guy needs to stay in California, go somewhere and chew on bark and whisper to the gods out there.' Despite the noise, Rodgers remains focused. 'I mean, I played 20 freaking years, you know? It's been a long run and I've enjoyed it,' he told The Pat McAfee Show. 'What better place to finish than in one of the cornerstone franchises of the NFL?'

Cris Carter: Shedeur Sanders' Flashy Image Cost Him Millions
The 2025 NFL Draft was a rollercoaster of surprises, but few stories captured the spotlight like Shedeur Sanders' shocking slide to the fifth round. Once projected as a top-five pick, the Colorado quarterback's fall to the Cleveland Browns at pick 144 has sparked intense debate. Hall of Fame receiver Cris Carter believes Sanders has nobody to blame but himself. Advertisement On Monday, Carter delivered a blistering assessment of Sanders' pre-draft decisions on the Fully Loaded podcast. His comments point to a series of massive mistakes that may have cost Sanders millions. Roughly $50 million. 'You're going for a job interview,' Carter said. 'So, for his job interview, he was so concerned about what his outfit was, his necklace was over a hundred grand. Like, he hadn't even convinced people that you're the face of our franchise.' Shedeur Sanders Cost Himself Carter is so convinced that it was Shedeur Sanders' cocky attitude that caused him to completely drop off of some draft boards, that he suggested the quarterback forced the hand of team owners. Advertisement 'Matter of fact, he had convinced people that they were better off going in a different direction, even with people who had lesser talent,' Carter said. 'That's the rub he put onto people.' It was such a surreal scene that the Browns, who took Sanders in the fifth round of the NFL Draft, had already chosen Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel in the third round. Scout Inc. ranked Sanders as the second-best quarterback in the draft, but Gabriel wasn't in their top five. Sheduer went two rounds after Gabriel. Moreover, it seems like the Browns were making some sort of charity pick by even selecting Sanders. They now have five quarterbacks on their roster. Shedeur will have his work cut out for him to make the main roster. Advertisement RELATED: NFL Owners Took Shedeur Sanders Off Their Draft Boards Altogether Over 'Entitled' Attitude, Claims Boomer Esiason The $1 Million Louis Vuitton Party There's certainly a kernel of truth to Cris Carter's assessment of what caused Shedeur Sanders' embarrassing free fall. In fact, his overvaluation of his self-worth was evident even after the draft. Sanders, despite the surprising slide to the fifth round, celebrated his selection by the Browns with a lavish party in Dallas, showcasing $1 million in cash inside Louis Vuitton cases. The event, attended by celebrities like Kodak Black and Yung Miami, drew attention when Sanders' brother, Deion Jr., clarified on social media that the cash was a gift. Advertisement With everything to prove to his doubters, you'd have thought Shedeur would be humbled. Perhaps a video of him immediately heading to the gym for a workout instead of a party. Instead, he's out here acting like 'Broadway' Joe Namath in his fur coat. Also Read:: Packers Legend Clay Matthews Wrecks Chicago Bears Fans with Epic 'Message' from the President
