So whattya say we kinda pump the breaks a little on this Mahomes for MVP drooling here... if that's the case... than it looks like CJ frekin Beathard is the next Tom Brady-
Whattya say we wait and see what he can do vs #1 defenses, and I'm not talking about dinking and dunking all day long on frekin bubble screens- lets see this dude take the Chiefs down the field and score in crunch time and win a game before we start getting his yellow jacket fitted mkay?

Only 4 of Mahomes' 14 passes were bubble screens. He didn't throw them "all day long." Mahomes has scored in 80% of his possessions this preseason. Beathard punted in something like 75-80% of his possessions.
I've been plenty realistic about Mahomes' performance. Introducing Beathard into the argument doesn't make any sense. There's excitement about Mahomes because his performance is backing up what all the NFL scouts were already saying. Beathard's been a pleasant surprise but because the scouting reports don't match the play, it's still an incredibly small sample size. Especially since he's had a ton of busted drives so far.
