I think Mahomes' play has totally warranted these accolades as he's clearly the messiah, but it's not at all surprising to me that others aren't convinced. And I'm sure there were a lot of doubters who went to bed at the half of the Denver game thinking they were right only to wake up and again find out The Truth.

They were talking MVP for Deshaun as well.
