And stay there. Forever. Trapped in QB purgatory for the duration of Mahomes career. Because if Nix can even get them to .500 at some point, Payton's going to call that a 'win' on his ledger and never ever let that guy go.
It's gonna be glorious.
Denver couldn't be more irrelevant. They're going to be an also-ran in this league for a decade.

I still believe that the Alex Smith Chiefs are their ceiling with Nix, and I’m not convinced they’ll get there. I think they’ll get around 6-8 wins a year the next few years. Maybe 9 one year if they’re lucky.
At least with Alex there was some decent amount of hope bc Manning had retired and Brady was close to getting there. That just isn’t happening here. Mahomes isn’t even 30, neither is Josh Allen and Stroud is only in year 2.
There’s no way in hell Nix is leading them past these guys, and that’s not even including Lamar or Burrow.
