How many times must we watch a first year starting QB playing out of his mind before we realize that being a one year starter has an advantage over the league. Once the league gets enough tape on you, that's where you separate the boys from the men. I could go down a list of johnny come lately's, all hyped as the next great thing. Wentz, Prescott, Newton, RGIII, Watson, even Nick Foles a few years ago...now it's Mahommes. A player comes out and has early success and it tricks you into thinking they have the ability to sustain. Put up enough film and the weaknesses become exploitable.
That's what makes players like Brees so special. There's more tape on him than any living human being, yet he's still shredding defenses. Mahommes could be the next great player, but he is just as likely to come back down to Earth, starting very soon.
