Yes, in case it wasn't clear that he was trolling Brady fans:

Y'all really don't know how lucky early career Brady was and it shows.

Has Mahomes been lucky this year? Yes. Has it been anywhere near as bad as Brady was? No. https://t.co/fL80bomqf3

But I do think Brady & Mahomes have leadership characteristics that trickle down to the rest of the team. Their teammates run through a brick wall for them. We saw that today in the 2nd half where the Defense found a way to hold the Broncos to 0 points and you got a blocked FG at the end from the special teams unit.

I would agree with that. Their will to win (or hate of losing) does extend to their teammates. Most NFL teams aren't able to show up as consistently as we do week to week (see Denver's no show/quit last week for just one example) and a lot of that can be attributed to the leadership.
