I was beaten to the punch by hit-smack, but Mahomes' endorsements more than make up for what he's not getting in his actual contract. And that's not even mentioning how he's part owner in a MLB franchise, as well. Mahomes is his own ATM machine, really.

Shit, I bet Burrow, Herbert, Hurts, Allen and whoever else COMBINED don't make what Pat does off the field.

Yet another in the apparently infinite list of reasons why we're so lucky.

What's more amazing is that after Burrow and Herbert get paid, Mahomes will most likely make less yearly than them. In spite of that he will still have more MVPs, SB MVPs, and SB rings than every young "got paid" QB.....combined. We are beyond lucky to have a QB of his caliber with enough selflessness and long term vision to do what is best for the team.

If I'm a Philly fan, I'm good with it. It will be interesting to see the structure. But I think it's where it needs to be.

I'd rather pay Hurts 50M per than the following:

Rodgers (50)
Wilson (49)
Murray (46
Watson (46)
Stafford (40)
Prescott (40)
Jones (40)
Carr (37.5)

So I think it's a good contract. Risk? Sure. But I'd do it if I were them.

I agree. Seeing the kind of QB he was as a freshman at Alabama to now is unbelieveable. I never thought I would see him as a starting caliber QB in the NFL. He's far exceeded all expectations and he's a high character guy you want as the QB of your team.

Was only posting the numbers to show what a good deal the Chiefs are getting. And the other QB’s will be even more expensive pretty soon.

Not sure I understand. Between Brady and mahomes, how many QBs are gonna be Super Bowl winners? Making it there is a hell of an accomplishment, let alone losing after a stellar performance. I’d be more worried about Herbert and Lamar who can’t even win playoff games.

I wonder how this contract will affect Herbert and Jackson. No way do you give Lamar more guaranteed money that Hurts. Is Herbert worth more AAV than Hurts? I think the only QB who's contract is coming due that you could argue deserves more is Burrow.

Eagles had no choice. Hurts has had only 1 good year and now he's the highest paid ever. Crazy. I would feel more comfortable giving a deal like this to more consistently proven commodities like Herbert and Burrow. And I like Hurts. Not sure I like him at $51 mill per season though.

What has Herbert ever proven? He has a talented arm, but he lacks the killer instinct needed to lead a team. Of all QBs in the league I swear that no one gets more hype for so little.

Chieftain 04-17-2023 11:11 AM

Production. Herbert is consistently productive and durable. I feel the same way that he lacks killer instinct but again, he is a better QB than Hurts. I wanna see Hurts repeat last season and then he would be "worthy" of this type of contract.

He's not turning into Wentz JFC

I say take him now. He'll only cost more as time goes on.

Who is this Nicole Lynn of Klutch Sports Group, and what is their function?/Lamar Jackson

Which, in turn, is best for Mahomes. No sponsor is going to pay a QB huge endorsement money to watch his team go 9-8 every year because he's sucking up all the cap.

If he doesn't have it now, he definitely won't have it when he signs a 50+ million a year contract. Then he will have to do more with less as he won't have two #1 WRs and a stud, do everything RB. Hurts was so good last year that he was a shoulder injury from winning MVP, or at least making a strong run out of it. Herbert is never even close. I get taking a wait and see approach, but if he is even close to what he was last year he's costing more that $51 million a year.

Red Dawg 04-17-2023 11:29 AM

Goodbye SB dreams Eagle fans. Hurts go the big money and now you will need to him do more with less and he won't. He's not that guy. We have the only guy that can.
