Tamba drops a deuce on Alex Smith
I'll throw Florio a bone on this one... or maybe an anvil? |

Kelce talked about it. Couldn't believe there was a rookie just slingin it with the scout team during practice. Reportedly he also made Justin Houston look silly during practice one day.
Safe to say, the team knew what they had going into next season. |

Counterpoint: Reid wrecked Belichick in the NFL opener in that season with Alex when the Patriots didn’t know what was coming with Hill and Hunt. If they busted Mahomes out in the playoffs, that might’ve done the trick timing-wise to not give defenses the time to adjust properly.

Mahomes could have broken every rookie record. They kept their word to Smith and we have 3 more title so it hardly matters.

That’s nice but totally irrelevant.!Reid wanted him to follow Alex and Mahomes had nothing but praise for that decision.

We'll never know what that alternate universe might have looked like, but it seems improbable that it could have been as great as the one we Chiefs fans live in today. The one game Mahomes played in 2017 was amazing and fed him experience and confidence. Then the absolute explosion in 2018 propelled him into super stardom. Has any first or second year player ever had a season anywhere close to that? Makes it hard to argue that any other path to developing and starting Mahomes could have been better.

Mahomes very likely was better than Smith his rookie year, but I wouldn't change any of that. What we have now unequivocally is the best timeline, I wouldn't trade it for anything. |
