It is for this same reason that I reject the argument that Mahomes is a better quarterback than Allen. In my opinion, they are tied for best player in the league.
For every jaw-dropping sentence you read of that article, remember: "Josh Allen has to overcome this ineptitude, and still attempt to win." For 5 years now it has been Josh Allen vs the world. Allen wins in spite of McDermott. Meanwhile, Mahomes has been mentored by one of the greatest offensive minds in NFL history, and a man that had been to half a dozen Championship games and a Super Bowl before Mahomes hit puberty.

It's McDermott's fault that Josh Allen turns the ball over like he's allergic to it?
