BUT..... he was a fantastic mentor to Pat, and that makes up for it. Hell, it wouldn't even bother me if the Chiefs tossed him an honorary ring at some point.

no he didn't possess the ability to go farther.
winning a playoff game is the farthest that type of play gets you any more. We've seen what it takes to go farther. And that ain't it.
As far as giving the guy a participation trophy , I think it's insulting to him., the team and everyone else involved. The idea that Smith had much of anything to do with what Mahomes is , is absurd. Look at the preseason games from 2017. Mahomes showed up ready. The things mahomes does are not anything he got from Smith.
You wanna the guy a participation trophy? LOL. why?
