Had an NFC Personnel executive tell me “He reminds me of J.J. Watt, when Watt was coming out. An explosive and versatile playmaker who has a high motor and can line up at 3,5, or 7. Very strong kid” #NFL#NFLDraftpic.twitter.com/5qM3g6OrMr

Of course that doesn't mean that you still can't compete for a championship though. Are we not?
That's kind of the point. We're clearly in a state of transition, yet we just went to to toe and should've beat the "best team in the NFL" despite that and missing some key pieces.
What the fuck more could people ask for?
If you read OKchiefs posts the last few weeks ever since the Colts game, you would think this season has been a completely failure.
People are already declaring draft picks are busts 6 games into their rookie seasons.

Oh, you acknowledged it alright.
I think people (myself) are just upset because there's a pattern developing with games like this and blowing them.

This place has gone full ****ing reerun.
Maybe you should just place some of the reeruns on ignore and lower your blood pressure. Just a thought.
I've done that with htismaqe and its added years on to my life.....

It's Patrick Mahomes. If he's one of our bigger problems, we'll be more than fine.
It is. And it's also because he doesn't have that connection with these WRs like he did with Hill. It will come over time but being 4-2 with a brand new set of WRs is pretty damn good. [Reply]

Yeah, on the list of things to REALLY worry about, that one is pretty low because the tide will eventually turn there. I'm more concerned about (season long stuff):
1. Our inability to generate enough pressure with our 4-Man front.
2. The really questionable play from our OT's - it HAS TO improve.
3. Injuries in our Defensive Backfield
4. Getting consistent production from our WR's
5. Relying on a running game that consists on how well Pat does by scrambling for first downs. [Reply]
