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]

We're absolutely destroying zone coverages. It's a top o' the hat to Wally, the skill guys for their discipline with the tree, and Mahomes for reading the enemy's futile attempt to limit the "big" play.
I've never seen anything like this offense. Ever. Guys are wide open all over the field all the time. The only reason we don't score on every third snap is the pressure on Mahomes. That's it.
Oh ... and as the game moves into the 3rd quarter, it gets worse for the opponent. The DBs start running in mud ... they also seem to get more confused and talk to each other a lot more while using funny hand gestures.

The defenses wearing down over time is a very good point. Mahomes just needs to avoid the big mistakes early and then destroy teams in 2nd half. That would have made a huge difference for them against the Patriots. The big mistakes early cost them the game. [Reply]

Cheatriots can’t feel good about that win.

+1 turnovers
12 minute time of possession advantage.
Mahomes missing wide open TD’s.
Game in Foxborough.

He had a similar play earlier in game where he dropped the snap and threw a pretty accurate laser over the middle. Tyreek dropped it. Can you find that footage and create a GIF?
Both of those plays were impressive. Many QB’s would panic and not attempt a throw in these situations. [Reply]

Mahomes has 5 fumbles this year but they've all been just like that.
I know at least a few of them were just bad low snaps. [Reply]
That first throw is special. Special, special. I was watching it the other night from the side view, trying to figure out how it got it through two guys in rhythm. I knew he sidearmed it, but this view makes it clear. [Reply]
