Disagree.

He doesn’t have to do anything crazy if the Chiefs shit the bed and get blown out (too many turnovers, penalties, etc).

If it’s a close game, Purdy will have to make big time throws against an elite pass defense late. It always happens in these games.

If it’s close, one QB will make the winning plays. One QB won’t.

I'm not talking about the upcoming game. I meant in general across all the games, Purdy does not have to do anything crazy like Josh Allen or Lamar Jackson. He has a better OC and much better weapons supporting him than those 2 guys.

It's very different from the wide zone scheme the Niners like to run.

I felt like we could score whenever we needed against Buffalo but Buffalo has a couple of weapons that could give us trouble in Kincaid and Cook.

SF is very similar to Buffalo in that regard, but a little better. Kittle is a little better than Kincaid, CMC better than Cook, their WR duo is better than Buffalos as a complementary threat. Their defense is also bad but a little better than Buffalo's (in the condition it was in).

Now Buffalo had Allen who played very well and that serves as a bit of an equalizer. If Purdy can have a career game and be at/near the level Allen was, we're going to have trouble. Because at that point they're Buffalo but better.

But if I just put a 'representative' performance in there for Purdy - that's not going to be good enough.

I’ll assume all 4 teams are on the bye the week before the Super Bowl, so I’m judging them all at the same point.

Given only how they were playing going INTO the Super Bowl (not during the Super Bowl), I’d rank them like this:

1) 2020 Chiefs (2019?)
2) 2023 Chiefs
3) 2022 Chiefs
4) 2021 Chiefs (2020?)

2020 had all of those weapons weapons rolling at the same time.

This year we have the best defense by far and the offense has gotten it together for the most part.

Last year, we had Mahomes on 1 leg and didn’t know what to expect from all the WR injuries.

2021 had the abysmal OL situation that couldn’t be overcome against a quality opponent.

Watched Mahomes' presser. He's always been good at saying the right things, but that's another part of his game he has mastered too.

Literally the perfect QB. Does everything you'd want at a great level.

I have zero doubt none of us on here will ever live to see anyone else like this at the position.

Why even have this distraction around when he adds zero value.

I weirdly think about this all the time. I used to believe that everyone was made equal just in their own ways. Like one guy cant read but he gets a huge dick, another has a god level brain but socially awkward ect. Mahoes if ****ing great at everything. I mean what is his flaw? The only thing you can knock him on is A. His brother (not him) or B. His voice. Dude was designed in a lab.
