Possibly. Watson I have my doubts about, not about his ability, but more about the offense he's in; it just doesn't seem best suited to his strengths. Or maybe it has more to do with the play-calling, but the Texans seem like they're struggling even when they're winning.
Mayfield might end up being Mahomes' arch-rival, which I think could turn out great for the league in terms of dramatic playoff match-ups, but I was really thinking about QBs/teams with a bit more experience, kind of a goalpost for Mahomes to reach for in the early part of his career. Kind of like how Jordan had Isaiah Thomas and the Pistons to overcome before becoming the GOAT.
