For basically our entire football lives there has been a debate at the top of the QB food chain. I really only date myself back to 1990 or so as a football fan but there was Montana v. Elway and then Elway v. Young and then from there was the 'next wave' of guys w/ Manning and Brady.
For a flicker it looked like Rodgers may be about to situate himself as clearly a cut above everyone else in raw ability but then Brady kept winning and Rodgers didn't.
If Mahomes gets a title under his belt, there's reason to believe that for a decade the QB hierarchy will be "Mahomes - 50 feet of crap - everyone else..."
Kid's just different. Someone said he's Favre's talent with Rodgers decision-making and I'll be damned if that's not almost exactly right.
Our guy's just better than everyone else. There are solid arguments to make for a bunch of different guys at 2, but our guy is clearly 1 and will be fore the foreseeable future.
