I'm not saying Lance comp is Mahomes - even though there are some similarities - like size, arm strength, ability to break tackles, and throwing on the run with great velocity.
I'm saying - bc of his mental aptitude - he could truly understand Shanahan's offense and take it to another level.
College stats are college stats. He's doing what's asked of him. If you watch Lance and Lamar - you know they're not similar at all.
I would argue that they are more similar than he is to Mahomes.
You'd be wrong. Lamar and Lance are not similar at all other than both had big rushing numbers. They don't even run with the ball the same way. One is elusive and pure speed - other is breaking tackles and more of a power runner.
And which type of "runner" is Mahomes? That's my point! Mahomes averaged less than 3 yds per rush in college. Lance and Jackson both averaged just over 6.
