In the wake of the recent streaming partnership between Netflix and the Kansas City Chiefs, another streaming giant has approached Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets. This development sets the stage for a rivalry with the Chiefs and their deal with Netflix. Titled “Quarterback,” the new show featuring Patrick Mahomes is slated for release on July 12th.
The New York Jets, however, have shown reservations about welcoming cameras into their organization. While Patrick Mahomes has set an example of how cameras can not be a hindrance to winning, the Jets are still resistant to cameras.
Patrick Mahomes sets example of embracing cameras
The Kansas City Chiefs’ victory in the 2022 NFL season, culminating in a Super Bowl win, showcased the exceptional talent of quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
Notably, Mahomes embraced the presence of cameras throughout the season, serving as one of the team’s six captains during the Super Bowl. His ability to perform at the highest level, despite the constant presence of camera crews, proved that cameras need not hinder or impede an athlete’s performance.
How many cameras were following Mahomes during Super Bowl win?
As Patrick Mahomes led the Kansas City Chiefs to their Super Bowl victory, many wondered about the extent of cameras capturing his every move. Many cameras were following the quarterback during Super Bowl win as the content was being filmed for his upcoming documentary, Quarterback.
The relentless coverage showcased Mahomes’ ability to thrive under such circumstances, further cementing his status as a remarkable quarterback.
Jets Express Preference for Privacy
Now Jets are considered potential candidates for a docuseries akin to “Hard Knocks.” But the Jets have made their preferences clear. Head coach Robert Saleh and the rest of the franchise are hesitant about inviting cameras into their building. Their primary concern is providing the best possible acclimatization for Rodgers, whose arrival is pivotal to their Super Bowl run aspirations.
Ultimately, the decision may lie with the NFL rather than the Jets themselves. As the potential camera crew awaits entry into the Jets’ premises, it remains to be seen whether Rodgers and the team will be affected by their presence.
Taking cues from Mahomes and the Chiefs, who demonstrated that cameras need not be a barrier, the Jets may find inspiration to overcome any reservations they have.
Regardless of the outcome, Rodgers and the Jets’ performance in the upcoming season will undoubtedly influence those who doubt the impact cameras can have on a team. The Chiefs’ success in 2022 is a testament to the fact that embracing cameras can coexist with achieving greatness on the football field.
