Allen is not and will never be equal to or better than Mahomes because he lacks fundamental traits that Mahomes has:
1) Elite IQ
2) Elite arm talent (throwing with touch, off platform, from every possible angle)
3) Killer instinct (while Allen has shown at times that he can go cold blooded on teams, he hasn't managed to close the deal when it really counts... in the Playoffs)
Allen is very robotic in his approach. Lacks the intelligence to dissect formations pre-snap.
There is the Mahomes tier and further down the barrel there are the lesser tiers.

I don't think anybody really believes that. They're merely backed into a corner and are trying to protect their quarterback while they hope for a miracle year from him.
