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.

Except Mahomes does not get special treatment, certainly not anywhere near Brady or Peyton Manning. On Sunday Mahomes got punched in the throat with a ref watching it and no flag. Ravens got away with hitting him out of bounds. I have seen way more weak roughing the passer calls in favor of Josh Allen than anything for Mahomes through the years.
