I think he still shows some flashes and I think that fans and even teams are too impatient with young QB's. I also believe it's hard for any young QB's to look really good on bad teams as not every young QB gets placed in a situation Mahomes did and I still believe if he was drafted by a perennial bad team like the Jets we aren't talking about him today as best in the league or MVP. There is some skill there and it's a matter of his bad habits being coached out of him. I don't think he's got elite potential but if he can improve his accuracy and cut down on the turnovers he could be a solid NFL starter. The reality is that there's less than 10 elite QB's in the league so if you have a decent mid-range starter that's not a bad place to be as things could be a lot worse. The 49ers just made the Super Bowl with a QB I would consider bottom 1/3 in the league so you can still win with a non-Elite QB if you build your team the right way.
