It's gonna be Mahomes/Mayfield. The relationship goes all the way back to college, the same GM's drafted them, they both play for historically downtrodden fanbases who have given far more than they've received. It's just an easy story to write.

I'm not sold on Mayfield yet and how he will be seen by the businessmen of the NFL. The Browns also have to prove for another season or two that they are no longer jokes.
While Luck is older, it doesn't mean they won't have 10 years to cultivate a rivalry. Luck is as close to Manning in temperament that you can get right now. He is a "gee golly gosh" kind of person that absolutely loves football. He will never embarrass the Colts, the NFL, or himself. If he weren't uglier than Eli he would be on every ad possible.
