[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 893754, member: 12283"] People talk about the supporting casts in GB and KC as though there's a gaping chasm between them, but Rodgers and Mahomes have a pretty comparable set-up in terms of advantages once you start breaking it down. [B]-[/B]In terms of offensive design and play calling, LaFleur/Hackett and Reid/Bienemy are on a similar level this year. -Both of them have elite #1 wide receivers in Adams on the one hand and Hill on the other. -Mahomes has a huge advantage at TE, where Kelce is arguably the best in the game. Tonyan has been a good and fun revelation, but he's obviously a sizeable step down. -But Rodgers' backfield of Jones, Williams, and Dillon is a lot better than CEH and a broken down Lev Bell. -Rodgers has the superior offensive line working for him, and a more effective running game. -Many people would argue that the rest of the receiving corps is where Mahomes has the huge advantage, but I don't see it. Here are Mahomes' next three wide receivers after Hill: -Hardman: 60 targets, 39 receptions, 535 yards, 4 TD, 13.7 YPR, in 15 games -Robinson: 52 targets, 39 receptions, 408 yards, 3 TD, 10.5 YPR, in15 games -Watkins: 55 targets, 37 receptions, 421 yards, 2 TD, 11.4 YPR, in 10 games And here are Rodgers': -Valdes-Scantling: 60 targets, 31 receptions, 603 yards, 5 TD, 19.5 YPR, in 15 games -Lazard: 42 targets, 31 receptions, 434 yards, 3 TD, 14.0 YPR, in 9 games -St. Brown: 12 targets, 7 receptions, 117 yards, 1 TD, 16.7 YPR, in 11 games So until you get to the 4th guy on the depth chart, there isn't much of a discernable difference. In fact, you could easily make the case that Rodgers' #2 and #3 wide receivers have been more effective than the #2 and 3 in Kansas City. So on balance, I think the edge goes to Mahomes because of Kelce, but it's pretty close when you consider that Rodgers does have some advantages to "off-set" the gap at TE (RB/OL). Hardly a big difference. [/QUOTE]
