I can’t think of a better situation in any time in league history for any young QB to step in and start his career.

Environment is the most predictable element for any young QB. Look at every good young QB. Wentz had below average numbers his first year and then looked amazing year 2 bc the Eagles stocked a ton of talent around him. Same with Goff. Watson and Dak walked into talented teams and look at what they did?

I will be shocked if Mahomes (barring injury) has less than 30 TD’s and 4,000 yards. Jared ****ing Goff didn’t have as good of surrounding receivers and was in his first year with McVay and he had 3,800 yards and 28 TD’s. Yup I think Mahomes can top that bc he has a higher ceiling and better environment.

DeShaun Watson was on pace to throw 17 INT’s last season and nobody gave a shit about it. I think you’ll see very similar things from Mahomes this year that you saw from Watson last year.

If I had to guess, I’d say something around 34 TD’s, 16 INT’s and 4,400 yards.

This. Mahomes is in a truly unique situation in KC.
