2025 Patrick Mahomes Football Tin

Derrick Henry had a monster 2024 first season in Baltimore with 16 touchdowns and almost 2,000 yards.  He's a beast and looks good on this Donruss Optic Light It Up insert.

These tins almost always look cool and pull me in.  About the only thing I can do with them is put things like stickers or other randomness in them.  Still, I fall for these more than I should.  You'll get variety in the form of shiny card brands like Select, Mosaic and Donruss Optic.

Georgia Bulldogs alum Brock Bowers had a great rookie season with the Raiders despite their issues at quarterback.  He had 5 touchdowns and almost 1,200 receiving yards.

Here's the tin.  I like the look and the photo. It's black on the sides with Mahomes name and number in jersey lettering.

The downside to the cards is you won't get many.  I wish there was at least one fat pack or add in some smaller packs of Donruss and Score to give us a bit more.

Always some downsides to tins but I did enjoy this one.  It looks pretty nice, and I pulled a few good cards like this nice-looking Josh Allen My House insert.

2024 Championship Collection Football Tin

 2024 Football Tin: I didn't think I'd want one of these but when I saw what was included I was in.  We'll kick it off with a good looking Any Given Sunday insert from 2024 Prestige.  Jared Goff and the Lions are still trying to lock down the #1 seed in the NFC but they have shown they have an offense worthy of the top spot.

Despite the missing logo something about the 2024 design works for me.

You receive two 2024 Prestige packs totaling 20 cards.

You also get two packs of 2024 Score.  I love the helmet on this design.  In my opinion we need more helmets in card designs.

Plenty of options in Score for the youngsters including this nice Jayden Daniels pull on a 35th Anniversary card.  

I'm always down for Contenders so this 2023 pack is a nice inclusion for me.  You'll get a total of six packs in each tin with one of those being a fat pack.

2023 Absolute was my Assorted Panini Pack inclusion.  Only eight cards in the pack but not a bad pull.

My tin.

This is my first look at 2023 Prestige.  I'm okay with these.  I like 2024 a bit better but they are pretty similar.  And on these we still get the college logos.  2023 Prestige was my Fat Pack in the tin.

The inserts.  I like the Alma Maters concept, but the design is a bit funky for me.  I'm all for Record cards as well and this one works for me.  Living Legends is fine and anytime we can get more retired greats I'm happy.

This tin was fun.  For $30 it's basically the price of a blaster and you get a tin to keep.  No, I don't have a plan for the tin but that's okay.  There is also an Optic Edition of the tins.  I might grab another of these.  I won't chase the Optic Editions though as I'm not as big into shiny cards.

Patrick Mahomes Tin (Prizm, Donruss Optic, Select)

 Full slate of NFL games today.  Doesn't get much better than that.  These NFL tins showed up on the shelves last week.  I shouldn't buy these things but I get sucked in.  I picked up a Mahomes whom I really like so here I am...

These come with four packs of cards each having four or five cards each.  This 2022 Prizm pack had a great pull with retired greats as well as A-Aron.  How Rodgers does in New York is one of the big storylines of the 2023 season.

The 2022 Select Draft Picks cards are my favorite.  They don't have that generic silver or white borders.

I'm not a fan of 2021 Donruss so these 2021 Donruss Optic cards don't do much for me.  I do like the Elite Series Rookies insert of Josh Palmer.  

I do like the look of these 2022 Donruss Optic cards.  Much better design.

Some of the remaining cards.  I really like that Stefon Diggs card.  Prizm and Optic really aren't my thing but I did enjoy this tin and the cards.  An impulse buy for sure.
