It's not over the top. Let me rephrase my statement. When I say he doesn't make them better I mean he's not putting his team over. If Keenan Allen is hurt it should not be an automatic loss. If Austin Ekeler is hurt that should not affect Herbert. Because it wouldn't affect Mahomes.
So that's what I mean by not making them better. When an offensive lineman is out it shouldn't kill their team.
And I'm able to discuss quarterbacks without propping up Dak. The thing about the QB conversation is that I hold other QB's to the same standard that you guys hold Dak to. I just keep the same energy. And it's certain guys that I'm just not willing to hold in higher regard than Dak. To me I don't understand how one could say Dak sucks but hype up Deshaun Watson. Or use his turnovers against him but hype up Stafford or Josh Allen. For the record I'm not interested in debating how great Dak is because I think it's too tough of a conversation to have. I don't think either side would have it honestly.
I'm also of the belief that Mahomes is in a tier of his own. And that 2nd tier is where Hurts, Allen, etc. belong.
That is a much easier statement to digest IMO. Thank you for elaborating so we could have a reasonable discussion.
I think everyone agrees that there has to be a certain level of team around any player. When a team has as many injuries as Chargers had at times last season, I think it's fair not to expect too much from them or grade any individual player too harshly.
Only thing I will say on comparing QB turnovers is you have to look at the level of difficulty. It's one thing to throw an interception when a QB is trying to fit into a tight spot well downfield versus a comeback route with the defender in a great position to break on the ball. For example, Allen absolutely made some bad
decisions last year. However, some of his throws were also the exact same ones that he often completes just because of his rare arm talent. Elite talent can bait you into some things others would stay away from.
