So Brady's legacy was already firmly in place before Sanchez was even in the picture.

I think we are both trying to defend Mahomes here

Let me just say it like this. The Year after Brady won his first super bowl he missed the playoffs. This did not define his legacy nor should it. But it did happen. Sunday night when Mahomes is done should not and will not define his legacy nor should it. It will be written by the entire body of work. And that is yet to be written.
