While both had different arcs, nobody can question their legitimacy as all-time greats.Patrick Mahomes is right there with them, with some potentially arguing he’s already surpassed both legends. However, Wilson has acknowledged it and made a joking request to keep their records intact.Russell Wilson asks Patrick Mahomes to retireAfter Mahomes picked up the 98th win of his career with 14 games left in the 2026 season, Wilson jokingly asked Mahomes to retire after realising the Chiefs QB will likely surpass him and Manning for most QB wins in their first 10 seasons.“’Mahomesey… can u just retire real quick?’ Peyton and I just asking for a favor.”Mahomes is six wins behind Wilson, who picked up 104 wins in his first 10 seasons, and seven wins behind Manning’s total of 105.Wilson might be right; one of the best ways to stop Mahomes from breaking this record is for him to retire, which will obviously not happen.This was Wilson’s way of giving credit to Mahomes’ incredible career so far.Photo by Michael Owens/Getty ImagesHis three Super Bowl titles already helped him surpass Wilson and Manning’s career title wins, but this one record they could still claim to be leaders in will also likely fall to Mahomes before the season is over.Mahomes has gone 67/98 on pass attempts this season for 812 yards, seven TDs, two INTs, and a 108.9 passer rating, registering an average of 271 pass yards and 2.3 passing TDs per game in the 2026 NFL season so far.Mahomes is playing a crucial role in his team’s success and is not being carried by the elite talent and schemes around him. If he wants to surpass Wilson and Manning, he will have to continue executing at a high level.Read more:Miami Heat media day ruined NFL’s Dolphins press conference one day after loss to ChiefsDeVonta Smith’s reaction to Jalen Hurts on Eagles bench should worry fans given A.J.
