I've seen a lot of crazy comparisons lol. But I've seen those two linked to Mahomes quite a bit.

I believe they compare him to Rodgers because of the kinds of throws he can make and the cannon he has. Also that he doesn't shy from moving and throwing.

Big Ben mainly because of the body and improvision. Mahomes is good at that. But also like Big Ben, Mahomes will make terrible decisions as well.

Those have mainly been the main comparisons. But there's also been weaknesses and people are looking deep into quite a few things too.

I haven't fully scouted him yet, so I can't give a completed thought. I like what I've seen, but there's also been some really bad things with his tape too. Tremendous upside from what I can tell though.
