There was a time when Chiefs fans were somewhat insecure about criticisms of Mahomes.
We have an entire thread about how Mahomes is better than Lamar Jackson.
I think most of us have really just moved on from the debate. Super Bowls are the only thing that really matter to Mahomes’s legacy at this point.
99.9% of QBs in history would trade their careers for his, even if he never played another down. There’s like 2, maybe 3-4 QBs who had better entire careers than what Mahomes has accomplished in his short time in the League.
Brett Favre won as many regular season MVPs as Tom Brady. The two aren’t peers though.
When a player achieves a certain level of greatness, the championships are all the matter. LeBron could win the NBA MVP this year, and it wouldn’t convince anyone that he’s better than Jordan (unless the person already believes that). Titles are the only thing that move the needle.
It’s Mahomes vs history. Not Mahomes vs Allen, or any other active QB.
