I think the experience of RW is overplayed when considering him over Mahomes potentially. I'd understand if Mahomes was a rookie. But he has two solid seasons under his belt, both of which ended in an AFC title loss (they should've won that) and a Super Bowl win. Mahomes has a good amount of experience under his belt and at the end, barring injury, will have a better overall career than RW.

Still stinging from that interception in the SB with RW.

Yeah, there's still plenty guys can come up with that Mahomes hasn't seen and Wilson has. Wilson's got 8 years in the league and has been the starter since day 1.

Mahomes has 3 years and didn't start until his 2nd season.

I agree that if he stays healthy, Mahomes will end up with the better career. But we're not talking about later in his career. We're talking about right now and right now, for 1 game, I'm taking Wilson.

Yes and no.

Experience has a lot to do with it, imo. It's less likely that a DC is going to come up with a wrinkle that Wilson hasn't scene than it is that he comes up with one Mahomes hasn't seen.

Having said that, there are also situations that Mahomes being the better athlete can get out of that Wilson can't...but Wilson is still good enough that there aren't a lot of them, if for no other reason than his experience will allow to him avoid those situations in the first place.

It's like the NBA...many consider Giannis to be better than Lebron right now...but who do you trust more to win 1 game for you?
LeBron.

Doubt there's gonna be any college sports. If they have the ability, I expect more kids to go this route.

Won’t be high school sports either.

This kid is skipping his senior year.

Hasn't that overrated bald bassturd retired yet? Did you know I now judge his entire career by his failure to get an injured Lakers team to the playoffs? Smart huh?

Not in a little while now that you mention. With the uptick they've had in cases in her area, maybe she's back at work.

I was more thinking she needed a break from SportsHoopla. She stop posting soon as post started getting deleted. Hope she's back soon

So.... that Michael Beasley experiment didn't exactly work out well.

We can set one up as long as it doesn't get all political.

What usually happens is that someone (usually @bksballer89 I believe) starts a playoff thread about a week or so before the playoffs, then the regular season thread becomes more of an off topic thread.

There are also usually threads for each series which get "unstickied" as each series ends.
That I recall from last year. Had a topic I was curious about here not bball (or sports) related and wondered best place for it in this forum.
