No but was as impressive and was talked in the same circles this idiotic thread is about. The only thing different was Vick started his first year and didn’t win the Super Bowl. Literally the exact argument you put about Mahomes was said 2 decades earlier.
No, I gotta say the really idiotic thing is to look at what Mahomes has accomplished in his first 2 years as a starter and try to compare that to Vick. I loved Vick but they are not comparable. Vick was the #1 pick in a draft, lot of well deserved hype around his physical abilities.
People were more surprised than anything when the Chiefs moved up to what, 10, in the draft to take Mahomes. Seeing him as a project player but there certainly wasn't this hype around Mahomes that he was going to come in a tear the league apart like he has. In his first year starting in the league he threw for 50 TD passes, something that only two other players have done and that was well into their careers and they are the GOAT and Peyton who is top 2-5 QB.
