The arguments are interesting for sure. Basing it solely off of SB wins is misleading IMO. If Mahomes ended his career without another SB I don't think you'd find many people who would argue that Aikman or Young were better than him (4 each), let alone Manning/Manning/Garoppolo/Big Ben (2 each). Same with whoever brought up the NBA comparison this week with Russell (11) vs MJ (7)... Although I get that is a different sport and not apples to apples. Where Brady separates himself is with his overall gaudy career stats with total tds, yards, etc. Those are more longevity stats, though, and not indicative of GOAT performance. SB wins are, too, to an extent.
If you base your argument on what a player can physically do on the field on any given Sunday, though... the physical ability, mental toughness, leadership, performance... I'm not betting against Mahomes.
