Nah, we've past that mile-marker DAYS ago. There are more people than ever ready to put Pat in and see what he can do. The local media may be scared of Reid, but the national folks who were none too happy to stop talking about Mahomes are firing up their engines again, and putting pedal to the metal for a good ol' fashioned QB controversy.

But JFC. Everyone in this thread is jerking off to him like we have someone who is a guaranteed hit. I'm tired of Alex as well, but there's at least a 25% chance that Mahomes takes us to a 6-10 record next year with 15 TDs and 15 INTs. My modal expectation is he's better than that, but who knows? (And if you cite preseason nonsense, it's not even worth responding to you.)

All good, man. Every knowledgeable poster I know here has already committed to the reality of losing a few a games with Pat during the transitional phase. And while 6-10 would be somewhat disappointing, it would be a hell of a lot better than 1 and done with Shitty Smitty.
There are fans who have DIED waiting to see this day. I'm all about the journey on this one.

Truth. And it's not like his job is at stake; this is purely ego-driven at this point. I don't buy all of that shit about "team chemistry" and "disruption" when the team in question is sucking out loud.

I would be beside myself with megasonic, orgasmic bliss were that to occur. And if it did, you might as well start getting him fitted for his gold jacket.
