If one didn't know the names of any of these players, average scout may think good starting QB surrounded by a couple of very good weapons and one all time great receiver (Hill) based upon that game film alone.
And for most football fans, I suspect they came to the same conclusion. Brady looked like a great all around passer that rather consistently capitalized when his receivers had an opening but it was Hill who stole the show in a 3 TD performance. Splitting defenders on one key play like they were standing still. One can say Patriots made "mistakes" in coverage on him a few times and that is probably true but he was absolutely electric in capitalizing on those mistakes and made the Patriots defenders look really silly on a few plays.
No disrespect to Mahomes but given the choice between replacing Hill with an average starting wide receiver or Mahomes with an average starting QB for this game as a Patriots fan, I would replace Hill if the weather is in the 20's or above.
The guy was sensational in that game and has obviously had many electric plays the last couple of seasons.
Mahomes using players like Kelce/whoever may beat the Patriots this upcoming Sunday but as a fan of the Patriots, Hill is the player on the Chiefs offense I fear the most.
