Because of all the interest in this thread, I've place all of the video content of Patrick Mahomes II's college career, and draft day goodness into a single post that can be found here. Enjoy! [Reply]

My goodness.
I forget if both drives stalled, but Mahomes could have had an easy long TD to Watkins and a possible 99-yard TD to Hill if he dropped it on a dime.
It's only two-games so I don't want to get ahead of myself here but I don't see many weaknesses with this kid at all. He's got all the tools and he is smart. He's making good decisions and avoiding INTs

This, as long as he keeps (and believes) this "just have to get it to my playmakers" attitude there is absolutely no stopping what he may be able to do. [Reply]

Can't wait till next Sunday.
People need to quit hedging. Kid is playing out of his mind. He is the truth. A bad game won't change that. It isn't smoke and mirrors like some of the young qbs we have seen over the years. [Reply]

Yeah he is on fire right now. He's legit I'm not saying he isn't but it's still just two-games. Long season...
Once teams get more tape on him they'll try and find his weaknesses and it'll be interesting to see how he responds.. Right now defenses really don't have much tape on him but that will change.. That's why some QBs go through 'sophomore slump.'
But to do what he did these past two-games in his first season as a starter is pretty damn amazing. Couldn't ask for a better start from the kid. [Reply]
Remember, the Bears drafted the set of quarterback tools they think has the highest ceiling. FWIW I've been told the Chiefs & Texans would've drafted Trubisky over Mahomes & Watson. That improvisation throw to Cohen is a glimpse of the potential. Patience is tough but necessary.
