Mahomes or Allen?

I would take Mahomes, but I bet there are a bunch of NFL GMs that if they could have any of the half dozen to 10 QBs listed in this thread they would do so in a heartbeat. Obviously the media is jumping all over the turnovers from Allen. I believe another point in your question about who you want the next 10 years, the way Allen plays (not sliding often but rather challenging the defenders with his big body) puts him more at risk than how Mahomes plays. Although we saw yesterday that it is a violent game and everyone is at risk.
Love how fast Burrows gets rid of the ball, but you would too if you had to play behind his offensive line! I was impressed with all their injuries how much time he did have. There were times a defender has a straight line to him and he still got the ball out. Will be interesting to see how the Bengals handle cap issues the next few years as Burrows and his key receivers will all likely expect paydays. Chiefs already had to do that with Hill and came out the other side okay. Brady is often overlooked that he restructured salary many times so they could build good talent around him.

Someone on Twitter said Allen is basically Phillip Rivers and I'll be damned if that isn't kind of true.
Take Kelce out of KC and Mahomes becomes much less superhuman. Put Kelce in Buffalo and Allen becomes much more superhuman.
Like when they took Hill out of KC.

I'll admit, I thought losing Hill was going have a bigger impact. It's pretty clear, given how he performed in Miami, that he's the real deal.
But KC just kept on trucking without him.
What % of Mahomes' improvised plays where he's running around making magic happen end up going to Kelce would you say?
I'll take Mahomes 10 days out of 10. I like Allen a lot, but he is too reckless with the football.
Serious? I'm not a Chiefs fan but obviously watch them a lot, seems like a whole lot more than 1 out of every 4 of those broken scrambly pass plays end up going to Kelce, but could just be me.
Trevor Lawrence will be better than Josh Allen.
Give Mahomes Chase, Higgins, and Boyd and they might break the scoreboard. Take those away from Smokin' Joe and they're the Cleveland Browns.
This was even funnier the first time, when I heard it about Tyreek Hill. One MVP season later…
Allen is 2 or 3 great seasons away from even being in the conversation with Mahomes.
Burrow has the better opportunity to be at the top of the class w Mahomes.
