The draft is supposed to balance that out but it doesn't. That's because some organizations know how to draft and develop talent while others don't have the foggiest idea.

Chargers Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 If Mahomes wins the MVP, would he be the youngest MVP winner? Scary to think this is 1st year as a starter and he's playing well above his years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onejayhawk Posted November 8, 2018 Author Share Posted November 8, 2018 If you look at previous monster seasons--Marino 84, Manning 04 and 13, Brady 07--they all had two WR going off. Mahomes is the only one with a TE going ballistic. That said, some of Brees' best work was with Graham and Sproles combining for 1800 yards. Concerning player acquisition, for game 9, against Cleveland, the Chiefs' OL was Eric Fisher and four former Browns. They kept Mahomes clean against a very good pass rush. Some of it is talent and some is making the most of what you have. Mahomes is literally two days younger than Marino in 1984 by birthdate. However, Marino played the first game of the season on September 2nd while Mahomes did it on September 9th. You can cut it either way. The youngest MVP ever is Jim Brown at 21, more than 17 months younger. Walter Peyton was younger by about 6 weeks. Marino and Mahomes are by far the youngest QB.

footbull3196 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Mahomes reminds me of a less mobile Daunte Culpepper. Big body, huge arm, can make every single throw on the field, great over the middle in the 20-30 yard range, has tons of zip on his sideline routes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunt's season is not as good as Gurley's season - much like how Goff's season isn't as good as Mahomes' season. I will say that kareem is catching up slowly but surely as Mahomes becomes more comfortable back there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megatechpc Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Lol, and I am proud to announce that the greatest blunder of all time in the annals of "Talking out of your butt on the internet" has just been awarded to.... ME!!! Yes that's right folks, I was the one that said over and over before the season began that Pat Mahomes was going to be "such a massive and laughable bust" and that "the Chiefs were immediately going to regret shipping Alex Smith off to Washington." Soooooo, yeah... But anyway, congratulations to me for winning the award for the worst hot-take ever conceived of, that immediately and spectacularly went down in flames as the most clueless and incorrect prediction of the 2018 NFL season!

I suspect you didn't realize he's played 8 games instead of 9. But still, point stands. Mahomes is having a great year. Gotta point out that Matt Ryan is on pace for 5370 yards, 38 TD's, and 6 INT's this season, and could still be like the 4th or 5th rated QB in 2018! Absolutely mental passing numbers coming out of QB's this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBLIII Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I think it's one of the best QB seasons in NFL history so far. He deserves MVP at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BayRaider Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Much respect to Patrick Mahomes from a division rival. That guy is so good the rest of the AFCW will have to center their drafts around stopping him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell me about it lol. I bring that season up every time someone tries to claim that Culpeper was only successful because of Moss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
