Ok....(exhales).
The '17 starting QB gig is not Mahomes' to win. It's Alex's to lose. If the offense is flat, if the passing game is inept, a change will be made.
If the Chiefs are losing games 17-14, you can bet your ass Reid will make the move.
Any regression from Alex will yield a QB change.
The switch to Mahomes is inevitable. Much like Mahomes taking the #2 job in the preseason was inevitable.
If the offense fails to succeed....if Alex regresses, the inevitable will not be delayed for the sake of Alex. Reid has never demonstrated that kind of loyalty to his QB's.
