I'm still pissed at the 2017 draft. How do you pass on someone so insanely talented in all the right places, including vision and mental aspects? Literally his only flaw was being too greedy (I don't even consider the "mechanics" complaint a flaw, because it's what makes him great). Ugh. I hate Kirk Cousins so much.

All 9 teams that passed on Mahomes (plus others regretting not trading up) feel the exact same way. By this logic Browns should have taken him #1.

Not all of them needed QBs. And yes, the Browns should have. But it's closer than some other teams, since pass rusher is the second most important position. But yeah, you don't often get college QBs that have elite physical traits, but also lightning quick processing (by that I mean not having to look for an extra split second before throwing the open ball; reading and reacting).

But to be fair, Allen is elite as well. This game is a great demonstration of what elite QB talent can do.

His acceleration is nuts for a big man.

Well to make myself feel better I just tell myself we wouldn't have Bosa and Deebo. Which is true.

Mahomes scrambles around and yet the holding is not on the Oline but the defense.

Both of these teams look miles better than any team in the NFC.

Oh this is quite true, and now we have Lance, so in the future, it may be quite worth it.

If our QB play was more consistent we could beat either and I'm not sure it would be all that close.

If I recall the rules, if he's out of the pocket, there is no defensive holding. Unless they changed it or I am misremembering the rule.

Exactly. QB is literally the only thing holding back the Niners full potential.

I think it's illegal contact that's legal once out of pocket
