The thing that I am battling myself with is whether or not playing Mahomes would really be running the risk of ruining him. I believe, given the coaching we have, and the strong supporting cast, that we wouldnt "ruin" Mahomes.
Now there is also the question of whether or not he can be successful as a rookie QB. Well, IMO, what Alex brings to the table is what a backup QB brings to the table. So I absolutely think Mahomes could replicate what Alex does production wise. While Mahomes would obviously make more mistakes, I wholeheartedly believe that the big plays he would bring would offset the mistakes.
So would that version of Mahomes as a rookie be better than what Alex brings? I am not sure. But what I am confident in saying is that he would not be so much worse to the point where our season goes to shit.
I am still on board with Alex starting for now. But come week 8, I dont know that I still will be.

You knew it was going to be a year either way, no need to let camp and the approaching season hype you in to any other line of reasoning. It is what it is.
The good news is, look at how fast he is picking this shit up. I will absolutely, 1000% guarantee you that Mahomes starts for this club in 2018. Anyone trying to hold back the reaper from Smith's sad ass is living in a complete ****ing fantasy world.
Also, I take great pleasure in watching at least ONE known moron eat his own shit in this affair when he argued like a loud, screaming, muppet-bitch for two years prior to this draft that, "TEAMS WHO TAKE 1ST ROUND QB'S DON'T SIT THEM FOR A YEAR".
Stupid ****.
Oh well, what's new at CP amirite?!
Mahomes in 2018;
bank it.
