Mahomes (and the Chiefs) have rarely struggled, but when they have - Mahomes has always looked phenomenal. Therefore, there is this superman image with some and expectations are that he will never play poorly and he will play like this until he's 40.
At the end of the day, he's still on pace for another 4,800-5,000 yards passing with another 38-40 TDs. Stellar stuff, but they're not winning consistently or in a dominant fashion.
Don't forget there's really only 1 QB that has played his entire career and rarely disappointing ... Brady. Like it or not, the guy has been a model of consistency as his teams have only achieved fewer than 10 wins 1 time in 20 years... (19.5 really).
That's insane and it's not likely to happen too often in our lifetime. Enjoy the greatness of Mahomes. I know it's been a couple of years since you've seen your team struggle, but c'mon.

That's the crazy thing and it shows why guys like Stafford and Matt Ryan and Dak can put up huge numbers despite not so great play. Anyone who's ever watched a Russell Wilson game knows its a lot of Alex Smith with a few sensational lightning bolts.
Not bad if this is his floor. But we all know something ain't right. And most of us, I would hope, know it's plenty fixable. Just a matter of when.
