But you should know better by now. Mahomes is 1 of 1. The stats go out the window come playoffs. You are dealing with the best, most clutch player to ever wear cleats. Can you win? Sure. Does ANYTHING you’ve done up to this point matter? Nah.

I was talking to a buddy about this the other day.
When you look back at a lot of Brady or Manning postseason wins, there’s a lot of revisionist “well of course Brady/Manning beat THAT team, look at their QB”. At the time though, it seemed much more even.
Matt Ryan and Cam Newton won MVPs in the years they lost to Manning/Brady just to come up small when it mattered most (even though Manning was awful that year).
Wouldn’t shock me if we looked back on this year and said “well no shit Mahomes beat Goff in the Super Bowl. Duh.”
The shine has already completely come off of Jalen Hurts and that 49er team. “Of course Mahomes beat Hurts and Garropolo in the Super Bowl. No surprise there.”
Good teams with decent QBs get completely forgotten in history when they play the all time elite QBs.
