1. Mahomes has already exceeded by expectations. This was suposed to be a transitional year, now it clearly doesn't look like that. Even when I thought it was a transitional year, I still thought we could contend for the Division. Now I expect to win it.
2. Mahomes is just fun to watch. i've NEVER enjoyed watching a Chiefs game like i do now. I know he will make mistake, but I don't think I'll ever really be disapointed in him, especialy early on in his career. I would get down on Smith and the Chiefs every time he shit the bed, why? Because it was a reminder that Smith and the Chiefs didn't really have what it takes to contend. Now its, hey, he's young and I'm glad he's taking a chance.
3. Wins and losses, especially in the playoffs are all that matters to me. it's fun to focus on stats, but lets be honest here, while Mahomes has had three weeks on insane stats, the 2017 NFL rushing leader is 17th in rushing yards. Am I upset about that? No, not one bit. I actually think its great. I'd rather have Hunt beast when we need it, like in the first game to give the defense a rest, to put the game on ice, or to win playoff games. Yeah I hope he gets a 1000 yards and 10 TDs, but I'm more interested in team success. I feel the same way about Mahomes.
