    No NFL player should ever be on a "lost" unless they have, at least, 2 seasons under their belt.

    Unless that list pertains to that one specific year.

    Mahomes could regress, Mayfield, Darnold, even Watson. Once you get tape and know more about the scheme it changes things

    Well, Mahomes and Watson will be in good hands because their teams keep same coaches around so they get to grow into the schemes. Too early to say about Darnold and Mayfield but again Jets and Brown's are always chit shows.

    Mahomes has elite talent. So does Watson. The other 2, meh. We'll see how they do this season. And its actually more likely Mahomes regresses, than plays like he did last year, even if its factors out of his control.

    And if we sweep the Texans and Mariota outplays Watson, the conversation will switch about Mariota and Watson. Same with Luck.

    Mariota has never had weapons. He's loaded now. I don't expect his attempts to come close to Mahomes, Rodgers, etc but I expect a very good season if healthy, and beating those teams with good QB's. Like last year.

    How did Brady look against us JCB? Is it because Brady sucks or we had a good scheme against him?

    Funny you name Brady. I rewatched that game for the 7th time last night. That was an odd game for us, we did everything right that day. Brady also didnt have Gronk that week but whatever.

    As for Mariota beating the Texans and Colts; even if he does, that's not changing anything regarding Watson and Luck. They're both top 10 QBs no matter the outcome of those games.

    We should really NOT do this to Mary. Hes not sweeping those teams.

    Mahomes isnt growing into anything. Hes been doing these same plays since college.

    Unlike most coaches Reid isnt forcing a square peg into a round hole. Hes adapted the Chiefs around Mahomes college system. In fact it worked well enough the Cards went and hired a guy who does the same things.

    I think Darnold will develop into a good QB, and Mayfield is already on his way there.

    These are QBs I'm thinking start to suck:
    Lamar Jackson, Dak, Foles, Keenum, Cousins, Manning, Flacco, Fitz...

    So basically you’re saying a scheme can make Brady look pedestrian
