Garoppolo won’t be mistaken for an elite passer, but he’s among the final four quarterbacks for a reason.
One of these quarterbacks is not like the others.
Mahomes brought his team back twice in the final 1:02 Sunday night, driving the Kansas City Chiefs to a game-tying field goal despite getting the ball for the last time in regulation with 13 seconds left. And then taking Kansas City the distance in overtime. It was 42-36 over Buffalo, an instant all-time classic, sure to ignite arguments for a change in overtime rules because the Bills’ Josh Allen never saw the ball.
Garoppolo was no less dramatic, but as usual, statistically inferior. In frigid conditions, Garoppolo was 11 of 19 for 131 yards and an interception. He had key completions to Deebo Samuel and George Kittle on a game-winning drive that set up Robbie Gould’s 45-yard field goal in a 13-10 win over the Green Bay Packers.
