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]
I gotta say; I Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuv that graphic in the southwest corner of the TV still.
That's a LOT of kick-ass portent in a very small package. In addition, it displays the forthcoming and natural progression of things in regards to the current and future QB situation in this league.
The league HAS to pimp its QB stars. And though it may balk at having to give our small market Midwest team the spotlight, there is simply nothing they can do about it but go along for the ride. [Reply]

That's the most important thing a QB can do, especially a young QB. He avoided turnovers deep in KC territory and on top of it he got at least 2-3 first downs every time the Jags gave the ball to KC inside their 10 yard line. Flipped the field position and made it tougher on the Jags team in general. [Reply]
It wasn’t seen on the broadcast but after the offenses first drive, the Jags were furious, especially Ramsey. Everyone saw that dude go postal on the sideline with Malik Jackson showing frustration too. They knew it was going to be impossible to stop this offense after that.
They got immediate pressure in Pat’s face and he still threw a perfectly placed ball to Sherman who was covered well.
Then they close the pocket on Pat and get in his face forcing him to throw it away and he just stands there and fires it to Kelce.
Then they have everyone covered and Pat says “**** it” and runs the ball in. They literally did everything right just like Denver did and it didn’t matter.
Pat broke them from the first series and they knew it. [Reply]

GodDAMN I love hearing shit like this! There's so much that we don't get to see at home on the TV. How much of this is natural talent and how much of this is "early maturity" and development?
I don't care, I'm just glad it's there.
Was there EVER a QB more suited to run this offense? I don't think so. He just combines so many great elements from all of these different QB's that we've watched over the years, sitting at our TV's and getting our asses whipped by the "other" guy over and over again in the games that mattered.
And now, we've hit the All-World Lotto with this kid.
It's just amazing. I have GOT to get to a game and see this shit up close and personal. [Reply]
