I was certainly ready to roll the dice. I don't follow college, but after they drafted him, it was pretty clear that a lot of pundits thought he was, at best, a project, but it was also really clear that he had a sky-high ceiling. I was fully on board with that. If it had turned into a bust, you roll the dice again. Alex Smith played better than I thought he would and we didn't give up that much to get him and we got most of it back when we traded him. But I thought it was extremely unlikely to ever get to the SB with him. At most maybe a wild card win. If you are a team like the Browns, that might actually be pretty good. But I thought KC was at a point they should go for boom or bust. |

I know the kid gets mixed reviews around here, but I've liked what little I've seen of him in interviews etc... and of course he was right, what Mahomes is doing for his team is Myles above what Garrett is doing for his

I for one was happy Dorsey picked Mayfield. I figured they could use a boost of guess you could say confidence, lol.

Kizer could of been a good qb but he went to Cleveland where talented people lose their skills.

"Kill me before I let you win" Thats the kind of attitude a shitshow franchise needs in its QB, gotta have some swagger to inspire confidence in your teammates |

I dunno. He throws too many interceptions. It's only been 8 games and he's already just 2 INT's away from tying Smith's high as a Chiefs. You have to protect the ball as a QB. How do you ever plan to win in the NFL turning the ball over so many times?

I would rather have the Garrett/Mayfield combo than Mahomes by himself.

Mahomes was the guy I wanted long before the draft. Watson was the only one that I thought was close, but I thought Mahomes had a little more ability with a far higher ceiling.
I can understand the line of thinking behind some of the criticism, but poor field vision? WTF? |

There was clearly some major dysfunction going on between his HC and OC behind the scenes Then throw in the typical rookie growing pains on a team with no real foundation... it all adds up to not being a recipe for success for any rookie QB Gah, I feel dirty sitting here defending Clevelands QB on Browns week but thats how I feel |
