Excellent point, Jay's inability to correct his mistakes was/is compounded by the fact that Jay was aloof if you want to be really nice in describing his personality.
He wasn't a team leader, and had no rapport with the team as a whole and with guys individually except for a few of his receivers.
Mahomes grew up around the locker room culture of professional athletes, and is a grinder. He's going to be a early in out late guy who recognises putting in the time and cultivating the relationships with the guys & coaches.
NFL network just reported that the Saints had in fact identified Pat as who they were sold on taking over for Brees. He was their #1 target.
