We went from holding Mahomes to 17 pts to letting backups torch us for 30.

Very true, people are painting a narrative like it was the injuries why he played so poorly. He has  big question marks on his game.

Acknowledging a significant injury affected Trevor's play isn't an attempt at exonerating the defense who also significantly contributed to the late season collapse and gave up way too many points down the stretch.  

Trevor and the offense need to get better next year than what we saw from them this year.  Full stop.  

The defense needs to be better on the whole next year.  Full Stop.  

The reasons why they weren't better this year will be debated all offseason, but this need by some to shoot down that Trevor was apparently less accurate and more turnover prone in the final 4 games is just... weird.  It's like they feel threatened if an injury might legitimately explain away some of their conclusions about him and the season.  Maybe it would have been better for all involved had he had a season ending injury that night.
