All the greats get the calls in thier favor, be jordan, kobe ect.. same for the GOAT we were the beneficiary of alot of Calls that went our way .. ex. Raiders.People in general bring up the age/longevity angle too much imo. You have guys like Tom and Lebron playing well past what many expected. Modern medicine, training regiments and nutrition along with committed athletes leads to many playing at a high level contrary to those in previous generations. 40 is the new 30 lol.
If Mahomes is really as good as advertised (he is imo), combined with a brilliant offensive master mind in Reid and the refs in their back pockets, they will most certainly be a threat. Personally, I really have no issue with greatness being on display. I just do NOT respect when guys like Mahomes/Lebron consistently get calls to tilt the field/court in their favor. This is the dark side of pro sports - its an entertainment business first and foremost (and a billion dollar industry). Meaning externals factors come into play and nothing in life is ever really "fair".
Lol
But your right, Brady is wired differently, he has a burning desire that never flamed out. .. I say those qbs won't have as long a career as mahomes is already having injury issues, he's had turf toe, the knee injury and now dealing with ankle injuries..
As they say as your career prolongs you don't get healthier as you get older..
Allen of the QBs will have the shortest career span, as his playing style is definitely conducive to high degrees of injuries.. Joe "Brady" in Cincy will have the longest career in my humble opinion of the 3 great QBs..
