Bobby Stroupe — who has been coaching Kansas Metropolis Chiefs’ quarterback Patrick Mahomes since he was a younger boy — has discovered himself defending his most well-known consumer in latest days.
First, Stroupe took on former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who used a latest episode of his “Footbahlin’” podcast to turn into the most recent to say Mahomes’ profession has handed its peak.
“I feel Aaron Rodgers in his prime was one of many high few to ever do it — and so is Patrick Mahomes at his prime,” stated Roethlisberger. “Patrick Mahomes is simply getting into out-of-his-prime, I feel.”
In a since-deleted submit on X, Stroupe took exception to that.
“Not all people quits figuring out at 30 years outdated, Ben,” he retorted.
Then Stroupe went after Kansas Metropolis media character Kevin Ketizman, who had gone effectively past the “dad bod” feedback which have just lately been made in regards to the soon-to-be-30 two-time NFL MVP.
“Trip images are popping up of Patrick Mahomes, and he’s fats,” claimed Kietzman. “I’m gonna say it — and I’m gonna inform you the reality: He’s a humiliation.”
However for Keitzman, that wasn’t going fairly far sufficient.
“You’re a $500 million quarterback,” he add. “You’ve made all these feedback within the offseason that, ‘We’re gonna do our speaking on the sector, we bought our butts kicked within the Tremendous Bowl, we’re coming again with a vengeance’… Dude, you’re fats. Your stomach could be fats at my pool, hanging out with us 60-year-olds. Cease. Cease the quick meals. Do a sit-up. Do one thing.”
For Stroupe, that was a bridge too far.
“Ship me your location,” he replied angrily in one other deleted X submit.
“You clearly want consideration. If you wish to see what ‘in form is,’ go make it via a [training camp] follow at Saint Joseph or run [a] hurry-up offense [while] scrambling back-to-back-to-back performs.
“You don’t have a clue what it takes. It’s not a glance. It’s efficiency.”
Mahomes was not but… uhhh… weighed in on this dispute. However figuring out Mahomes, he’ll reply in his typical method: with efficiency. He’ll start his ninth NFL season in opposition to the Los Angeles Chargers in São Paulo, Brazil on September 5.
And it may possibly’t get right here quick sufficient.
