That's a stretch... Take away pieces of their defense (they did) and they still have a good defense. Now do that same exercise with Mahomes... -
You said CAREER because that's what you meant. If you meant per season, then my response would have been different. Some might think my response was probably wrong because it is not supported by pointless facts....they don't even know the difference between being right and wrong, but think right comes from a "fact size competition". Here is the crux of anything to do with JT...ever. How many RBs can bust off 60 yard TDs: about 1. How many RBs can churn out 4 YPC on a drive: About 42, And another 80 in college. So having Sermon in the game when you are not relying winning the game by a 60 yard run...like a HC would have to be a complete dope to rely on that to win the game, means basically nothing. I wish people would stop using such a pointless stat like YPC to Monday-morning QB the play calling when down two scores in the 4th Q and two TDs late in the 4Q. That is the issue. The stats you describe to second guess play calling are completely worthless.

Why should it be characterized as desperate? The conventional pick -- and the one people around the league expected for several weeks -- was Will Levis. It's not like the Colts didn't have another option at #4. What the Panthers did was desperate. And even then, what really matters isn't whether you sell the farm or not, it's whether you get the pick right and the guy is actually what you hoped he would be. Same for the Bears; they appear to have played it well, but they'll be judged on whether or not Caleb Williams is a franchise QB. The Texans look smart because Stroud looks good, bottom line. I agree that it was a gamble, but that's the draft in general, and especially when it comes to QBs. And like you said, when the guy you're gambling on is a physical outlier (to the positive, not the negative, like Bryce Young), it's defensible.
