    If I had to pick one player in the NFL

    Mahomes would be it. Dude is a big time winner and leader.

    And Andy Reid would be my Coach.

    Can't argue that one. Chris Jones anchoring the D ain't too bad either.
    I'm interested to see CJ Stroud progress into the future.

    Why would you want a coach who hasn't won anything and has an offense that consistently gets shut down in big games?

    Well in this dream scenario, I'd have Mahomes at qb, so that wouldn't be an issue. Purdy (and the others in SF) have been/are nice game managers, but not Mahomes

    CJ Stroud has really impressed me. The guy can play. I didn't see him being as good as he is. I thought him and Fields were similar, CJ is already better.
    Mahomes has to be on pace to become the GOAT. I know every will be Brady this and that, but Mahomes wins games he has no business winning. He literally doesn't have a single WR. It is him and Kelce. That's it. Still can't stop them consistently.

    Sitting at home like Dak, who also doesn't have Kelce.

    Brady had Edelman, Gronk, Moss, and others too.

    Serious question - have yall watched Kelce this season? He is not the same guy he's been. He's still good, but he's clearly losing some. I won't be shocked if he retires. That td Sunday was his first since November

    Taylor laying it on him damn good. He whipped. Just call him Canny. If they were both married to others, he'd be texting her in the huddle.
    And when that ain't happening, he got photo shoots (commercials) to do.
    He busy man.

    Lamb and Kelce are 2 different players. One a TE and one a WR. However when you need one to get open and score a winning TD I'm going Kelce all day long. And Dak is a different type of QB than Mahomes. Wait till Mahome tears up his leg and see how much backyard crap he can do. Oh I forgot Andy Reid i twice the coach Mccarthy is.

    Speaking of McCaffrey that kid from Michigan who no one ever heard about will be the steal of the draft/

    TDs this season...
    Lamb 12
    Kelce 5

    Reid playoff record without Mahomes: 15-13 with 0 Super Bowl wins

    Reid playoff record with Mahomes: 9-3
    With 2 Super Bowl wins

    I'm sort of at a loss that some of you equate dak to Mahomes. There's literally no one that isn't a state fan that chooses dak over Mahomes.

    ETA... and dak is good, so I'm not trying to downgrade him

    Dak is a very good NFL QB. Thats beyond dispute. So is Purdy. So is Jackson who will likely be the NFL MVP this year.

    Mahomes and Josh Allen are a step above those guys. Mahomes is this generation's Brady/Montana. Allen is this generation's Steve Young and what we hoped Fitz could end up being.

    I didn't equate Dak to Mahome. 2 different types of QB.
