I agree with the bolded, though, I'm struggling to think of an instance of a HoF QB in their prime demanding a trade. I remember Carson Palmer did so in Cincinnati, but Mahomes doing it would be next level.
We have a similar situation brewing here in Milwaukee with Giannis. The hard part is, the franchise has tried everything to keep the Bucks in contention, but in doing so, they were just grasping at straws (Lillard signing) and prolonging the pain with no real reward. Sometimes you dig yourself a bigger hole by "going all in" rather than taking your medicine and starting over. And like KC probably knows, if they go that route (starting from scratch), Mahomes may end up asking out. On the flipside, trying to reload with below-average talent could be just as bad. They're almost in a lose-lose scenario here.
