Unless your position is we should have drafted Mahomes in High School.
All I ever said was that Alex wasn't the problem, at the time . . . Did we fix that problem of giving up double-digit leads in the playoffs after he left?

We floundered around with Alex for 5 years, netting one measly playoff win and never making it past the Divisional Round in the process. We made the switch to Mahomes and coincidentally found ourselves in the AFC Championship game that same year and hoisting the Lombardi just one year after that.
Alex was a decent QB and a great stabilizer for the franchise at the time, but he was clearly
the limiting factor when the lights were the brightest.
