For Jackson, his 1-4 career record against the Chiefs led by Mahomes makes them the opponent that has given him the most trouble. Last year’s 17-10 loss to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship game was heartbreaking for the Ravens, who were denied a trip to the Super Bowl while the Chiefs marched to their second straight Lombardi Trophy.
While Mahomes has enjoyed the upper hand, his admiration for Jackson was clear when he met with reporters following the Chiefs’ practice on Sunday. Success hasn’t made Mahomes complacent because he’s obsessed with winning.
