There's going to be plenty of QB's making more than Mahomes as time goes on. Lets not forget that Mahomes was ridiculed for his "team friendly deal", mostly because of the contract length allegedly not allowing him to renegotiate a better deal a few years from now.
The complaint from national media pundits has been, "Oh so-and-so will make more money therefore Mahomes was stupid to make that deal".

I'm aware of all that. Still not unfair to hold Deshaun to a very high standard when he got paid top dollar in his contract.
