Mahomes would have likely had more passing yards, in his first start, on the road, against a divisional rival...while playing with back-ups than all but one of Keenum's games last season.

Think on that...

Keesum has only had 4, 300+ games in his career...one in 2013, 2015 and two last year. So basically one every 10 games....
I don't think it's a safe assumption Mahomes would have had over 300 if he would have played the whole game. He had around 225 with 7 minutes left when he was replaced. 14 point lead. Cold as heck. Ball was on the 40. A couple of first downs, and the game is basically over.

Bray playing probably actually added yardage to Mahomes's total.
