Not only does he already have two wins under his belt, but he's also won two MVP awards.Although Mahomes has had plenty of succe s, he's also experienced some failure and of those struggles, there seems to be two games that really stick with him the most. During , Mahomes revealed the one game that has been the most mentally challenging for him so far, and in news that probably won't surprise you, that game Philadelphia 76ers Jersey came against a defense coached by Bill Belichick."I would say, the one game that was the most mentally challenging for me was the first time I played the in New England," Mahomes said.Mahomes' first trip to Foxborough as a starter came in Week 6 of the 2018 season in a showdown that featured his 5-0 Chiefs against the 3-2 Patriots.
