It’s easy to say he’s better than EJ but it’s still a pathetically low bar to set. You do realize Andy Reid is the reason Mahomes is successful, right? Alex Smith? First round bust? Remember him? Or how about the last couple games with Matt freaking Moore? The simple folk on this board just can't seem to grasp there's a lot more to football than individual talent. Which is strange, because that's what makes football so great. 1 1

Perhaps a bit biased? Hmmm.... https://www.linkedin.com/in/chris-trapasso-b5a9a511 It’s a small world, all these guys are connected in some way with other sports reporting organizations, not that he isn’t a fan, but that’s the world of sports reporters for the most part. A pretty good write up over all imo. Go Bills!!!

Tesla03 Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) lets just see how he progresses. its too early to tell. you cannot say he will be a franchise QB, and you can't say he is a bust Trubisky led his team to 12 wins, avg 220 ypg and threw for 20+ TD's and now fans are burning his jersey.

Tesla03 Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) Imo if Allen doesn't have major progress by the end of next year and we still are a middle of the pack team/offense I'd really think about getting rid of Mcdermott and his staff and letting Allen work with an offensive minded HC that can groom him into a top QB. as it stands right now no one on this staff has experience with developing QB's. you can only get so far in this league with a conservative defensive minded HC. At the very least find Allen a top OC bc 8 weeks in and Daboll looks like he is really holding this team back. think about it this way. would you want Allen + New HC or Mcdermott + New QB.

Guess the sky may not be falling. I don't believe you.

No. I did not realize this nor do I find it even remotely close to accurate. Andy Reid is a very good offensive mind and the Chiefs have a ton of talent. Matt Moore and Alex Smith look pretty good in the system. Pat Mahomes looks like a transcendent player in the mold of an Aaron Rodgers. I think you're seeing what you want to see. Prior to Mahomes, Andy Reid NEVER once had a 30 TD passing season from a QB. This guy put up 50! There's no reason to spin the truth to fit a narrative as Mahomes has nothing to do with Allen.

Which is strange, because that's what makes football so great. Alex Smith and Matt Moore are decent game managers who's ceiling makes them Wild Card contenders at best. Mahomes instantly upgraded then from a WC team to a Super Bowl contender with some of the most ridiculous throws I've ever seen. Reid has a lot to do with Mahomes development but he''s so talented he'd be successful even if he started as a rookie with the '02 Texans. Edited November 6, 2019 by Doc Brown
