Not gonna say much.. just going to drop this video here so you can check this guy out if you hadn't. I hadn't until today, and I really like his raw ability.
#1 thing that sticks out to me is he can really evade rushers and chuck it on the run. Amazing raw arm talent.
As long as Reid is calling plays, we need a QB who can make up for his conservative ways. Save your comments about how the Chiefs will never take a QB, because that's bullsh*t. If they find the right one, they will. I think this could be him.

I remember living through the "why did we draft Todd Blackledge and pass on Marino" years... 20+ years of hell that is now erased with the Mahommes success... Sucks to be a Bears fan with the same thoughts for the next 20 years... as I type with fingers crossed. [Reply]

I was just desperate and that draft sucked so much.
Geno was quite a fraud even in college. He came to Lubbock with a ton of Heisman hype and got his ass thoroughly kicked by a mediocre Tech team. Rest of the season was pretty rough for Geno after that as well.
WVU started 5-0 and finished 7-6 in 2012. Geno had a sack fumble and two safeties in their bowl game, lol. I don't know why he still ended up with a lot of hype by the time the Draft came around. [Reply]

Honestly Geno had a lot of good things in his college tape. Don't even bring wins and losses into the mix because WV had the second worst defense in the country. We all know mahomes wasn't to blame for the TT win loss record.
It's actually ironic how similar Geno and mahomes college tape is.
Mahomes getting drafted to a legit franchise with a genius head coach who was willing to sit him for a season instead of throwing him to the wolves is something Geno didn't get.
There has been a ton of talent ruined by bad coaching, and bad situations in high pressure cities. [Reply]

Mr. Molitoth bringing the ... ... ... Molitruth.
Getting a guy and coaching a guy are two totally different things. Then, you have the whole "coaching the guy the right way" deal.
It amazes me that so many franchises screw up the QB position either due to poor scouting or poor management. But they do ... and they do it a ton.
The NFL is a win-now sort of deal, I suppose. But it's shocking how many lose-now and lose-later-too scenarios play out in the league.

geno was never going to be confused with a football savant like Mahomes. There is literally no comparison. [Reply]

Marino was good, but Mahomes is just a different guy
Let's hope their careers are different as well [Reply]
