From the episode

You get Patrick Mahomes, where he immediately steps in in his quarterback one and maintains that forever.
Mentioned at 76:51 – 76:56

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Mahomes' immediate elite consistency is rare, not the typical path.

The source cites Patrick Mahomes as a rare case where a quarterback immediately stepped in as a starter and maintained elite performance forever, contrasting him with the more common pattern of 4-5 years of ebbs and flows before a quarterback becomes immovable.
