He won a couple of games for them and sealed a couple of other wins.
He is so dangerous that one repeat theme in the last 2 losses is the opposition devoting extra resources all game long to countering him.
How many games did Mahomes win for KC? More than Donald has won for us.
And the defenses that play him spend a lot more resources trying to stop Mahomes. Just double-team Donald and hold him every play. Can't do that to a QB.
Mahomes is worth more to KC than Donald is to the Rams.
You’re conflating two entirely separate issues here, dune.
1. Yeah, Mahomes is more valuable to the Chiefs than AD is to the Rams.
2. But AD is NOT the problem on D. Quite the contrary.
1. There's only so much money available for each team. QBs suck up the most. In our case, it's Donald. Until it is Goff (maybe) and then we'll have two guys sucking up a lot of money. Like having two QBs from a payroll. They will both cost us other players as we won't be able to afford as many good players or another great player with less money available.
2. Mahomes is more valuable because good quarterbacks are more valuable than great DLs. They impact the game more.
3. I completely agree with you that AD is not the problem on D. I said up front he's a stud, maybe the best all time. I am glad he's on our team. On the field, he's the man. But he costs us - on the field - at other positions, that we can't pay premium $ to play for us. We're already seeing it. We didn't bring in a good, experienced vet LB as we had to keep space for Donald this year. So we will have to make due with lower round picks and UDFAs and hope we hit it big on one.
