Mahomes himself said he wasn't ready to start year 1 and that he learned a ton from Alex. Everything from how to be a pro to how to play the position. You're not only the most important player on the field but the leader of that group as well. You can fail a 1,000 different ways.

And it is true he wasn't fully ready Game 1 2017 season. No rookie is. |

How about Eric Fisher? He started at RT because that was his job. Do we really lose anything if it’s Donald Stephenson there instead? And do you think a year of Fisher playing on the wrong side and getting his confidence blown to shit was all that impactful for his future career? I mean yeah, he was a first rounder and he started, but… |

One sat and learned behind a veteran QB with absolutely no pressure. The other was the “savior” in NYC Ana thrown out there immediately in bad conditions. People forget that Jordan Love looked horrible when he first started. Spags blitzed him relentlessly when we played him and he looked like a deer in the headlights. But GB put him in the film room and taught him to read defenses and now he looks like a top 10 QB. Teams need to learn the Packer way. Andy sure did with Mahomes. |

Why do you expect a rookie 1st rounder to start especially on a team that is coming off a Superbowl win? Seems dumb to me that Superbowl or playoff team will require a rookie to be who is not even top 22 in his draft class to be a top 22 player on the team drafting him. |

And being active in the playoffs is pretty much minimum level expectations. |
