Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 812466">Well, the proof is in the putting.  Dan Marino's numbers in his second season, his first as a full-season starter, were comparable to Mahomes. While he was a HOF QB, he never again matched those numbers.Mahommes could be an example of "the triumph of the uncluttered mind" playing with modest expectations in his first year as a starter, out there just having fun on the playground.  You have not seen him operate under playoff pressure or the pressure of a big contract a couple years down the road, not to mention the affect on his supporting cast once he starts sucking up that kind of cap.  And defenses have a habit of making adjustments in the offseason that he'll have to counter-adjust.Will he be a great QB?  I suppose that's as good a bet as with anybody else after his first starting season who has come along since Marino.  From a statistical standpoint, will this be Mahomme's  most productive season?  There's a good chance of that.  Then he'll be measured by how he deals with with adversity and winning championships.</blockquote>
