It's just lazy analysis. This isn't basketball. These players don't compete against each other at the same time. Plus, there's 20 other starters on the field.
I don't remember 25 or 30 years ago hearing about head to head QB records. I have no idea what Marino/Elway or Young/Favre were against each other. Now that everyone has a social media account and everyone is a sports analyst, we're forced to hear this talk.
Allen is not better at Mahomes but also Allen's defense was shit against the Chiefs in all three playoff games. They should have won the 13 second game if not for dumb coaching.

I don't like the QB win stuff either. Mahomes had a losing record in college, but it damn sure was not because he was a loser. Tech had a terrible defense and shaky roster in general, with a very young head coach who was not qualified to be in the job.
