It's actually ironic how similar Geno and mahomes college tape is. Mahomes getting drafted to a legit franchise with a genius head coach who was willing to sit him for a season instead of throwing him to the wolves is something Geno didn't get. There has been a ton of talent ruined by bad coaching, and bad situations in high pressure cities. |

Getting a guy and coaching a guy are two totally different things. Then, you have the whole "coaching the guy the right way" deal. It amazes me that so many franchises screw up the QB position either due to poor scouting or poor management. But they do ... and they do it a ton. The NFL is a win-now sort of deal, I suppose. But it's shocking how many lose-now and lose-later-too scenarios play out in the league. FAX |

No comparison. None. Geno Smith didn't have it in him. |

Geno doesn't have anything in his tape that looks like the Mahomes scramble TD against the 49ers this past weekend, but you can find dozens of these type of plays by Mahomes in his college and high school film. He's Fran Tarkenton with 10 times the arm strength. |

This was a fanbase desperate for a first round QB and he was one of the best coming out of that absolute shit class. EJ Manuel, Geno Smith, Mike Glennon, Matt Barkley, Ryan Nassib, Tyler Wilson, Landry Jones, Brad Sorensen, Zac Dysert. Looking back at that draft, Eric Fisher was a pretty good pick.

The irony of all this--I posted this thread on January 16th, 2017. The Monday after we lost to Pittsburgh in the playoffs. I was as annoyed as anyone by that game and immediately began to dig on QB prospects for that upcoming draft.
Coincidentally, that same day that KC lost to Pittsburgh was the day that Rodgers made that spectacular pass to Jared Cook on the sideline that wound up beating the Cowboys in the playoffs. So when I started looking at QBs, I had that play in mind and was searching for a guy who I thought could replicate throws like the one Rodgers made. Tall task. Can't find QBs like that every year, especially ones that check all the other boxes too. But I thought he did. |

It really does feel like a complete dream what has happened. I can't wrap my brain around it and I can't get enough. No wonder Pats fans want to lick Brady's nuts. Can you imagine if Pat won 8 Super Bowls

I remember living through the "why did we draft Todd Blackledge and pass on Marino" years... 20+ years of hell that is now erased with the Mahommes success... Sucks to be a Bears fan with the same thoughts for the next 20 years... as I type with fingers crossed.

Mahomes has been doing this since he first touched a football... Some more White House highlights.
