They were probably doing that whether Mahomes played this year or not. That's just the nature of drafting a 1st round QB. I don't think a rookie QB has ever even been to a Super Bowl. There have certainly been rookies to get into the playoffs and have success, but they often have elite running attacks and defenses to support them, and they usually get knocked out by a more experienced QB. Even if Mahomes turns out great he'll probably have to take some lumps to get there.
