Mahomes rival is Watson, not Lamar imo.

Possibly. At the moment I have zero faith in Big Brain O’ Brian. It is quite possible I’ll put equally wordy analysis up of the two matchups we’ve had with the Texans in 2019 (I’ve thought about it a bit already so I apologize in advance).

I don't really understand the hype around Watson. Less athletic than lamar by a lot, less effective than mahomes as a passer by a lot. He's very good but not great.
Some of these young guys could have a shot. Burrow and Trevor Lawrence have potential to be really good in the NFL. The NFL is probably praying the Bengals are stupid enough to pass on burrow. |

Nah. The only dude who is even remotely close to being Mahomes' rival is Brady, and he's on his way out. Lamar has yet to win a single playoff game, and Watson hasn't been much better. Pat is already a champion. Those two ain't shit.

Yeah, it's not a rivalry but I think those are clearly the 2 best prime age QB's in football right now. They are the only two guys where you say "worth every penny" on their high dollar contract. It would be pretty cool if we can get a Super Bowl matchup with them.

Mayfield and Darnold could still emerge with better coaching around them.

If the Jets brass are a bit less reeruned next offseason they will dump Gase into the sewer and hire Bieniemy. Same exact thing can be said for the Texans as well.

My guess is that they’ll hang around 9-7/10-6 purgatory for a while and hope Watson can be good enough to make plays happen despite his line and lead them on a playoff run. So far they’ve always been left hoping the chips could fall just right for them to go on a run - a feeling we knew all too well before the Mahomes era. |

Burrow and Lawrence absolutely have a shot too - but they are likely to not be landing in a situation like Mahomes did
Part of the problem the NFL faced (and why it took so long for QB’s to emerge after the Manning/Brady/Rodgers/Brees) class, is that so many promising QB’s would end up with incompetent GM’s and ass tastic lines. Lamar and Mahomes ended up on loaded rosters which ended up being critical to their early success. Watson did to an extent, but a lot of Texans fans are worried about the hits he’s already taken behind his previous toilet paper like lines. The situation Lawrence and Burrow get drafted into is going to be critical. Tank for Trevor is def going to be a thing next year, right? Last edited by Chiefspants; 02-16-2020 at 02:28 PM.. |

Lamar was 9% on TD's in 2019. Mahomes was lower than this in 2018 for his 50 TD season. It's going to be interesting to see the regression for Lamar (on the stat sheet). The numbers he put up in 2019 are not sustainable.
