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.

Yeah, this discussion comes up and we all just assume Mahomes would've won a super bowl his rookie year and everything else would've played out the exact same. No one seems to understand the butterfly effect, EVERYTHING from that point on would've been drastically different, very likely worse than where we are right now.
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.
