It's the same exact circumstances we saw when Brady was playing. There's no doubt in my mind that Brady received extra special kid-gloves treatment, because he was the GOAT. Manning got similar treatment in his day. We all are well-aware of that, right? Watched all that shit in real time, didn't we?
Well, now it's Mahomes' turn. This is always how the league has worked. It's how every league works. See MJ. SSDD.

Back when Brady/Peyton playing, you could lay bigger hits on QBs and I do believe those two got more protection.
Now, they really are protecting all QB's so it is not same.
Sure, there is still some issue when they take off and are nominally RBs, but it is not like it was with Brady.
