- Early career production - Dynamic threat downfield & after the catch - Elite speed & start-stop ability - Fluid mover w/ good route running chops - Ball tracking is A+
Not entirely sure why the vibe isn't higher when talking about him in the WR class. pic.twitter.com/dv3JjdyZgh
I'll write something fresh about Worthy tomorrow morning now that he's a Chief to lay out how he's more than speed, but for now here's an excerpt from article linked in the below tweet... https://t.co/EcW7QtUrFFpic.twitter.com/811ahCEfMS

I didn't say it's impossible, dipshit.
You can count on one hand those guys drafted in the 2nd round and later in the last 10 years who have that kind of rookie success.
Hell, the only other starting OT beyond the 3rd round I can name who was pretty good as a rookie is David Bakhtiari. [Reply]

Concerning the deep ball, Mahomes never developed proper chemistry with Hardman or MVS and now he’s struggling to do so with Worthy.
In fact, the only receiver he’s had consistent deep chemistry with in his career is Tyreek.
At this point, we have to come to the realization that it’s a Mahomes issue. His deep ball sucks. For all the little things at the QB he has such a natural feel for, the deep shot just isn’t one of them.
If he ever develops that Russell Wilson/Tom Brady moon ball, the league is truly fucked. [Reply]

As far as I know, he had no issues with drops in college.
I had people in the stadium telling me at halftime that worthy is wide open for an easy TD in the first half. I'd bet the film is going to be a topic of conversation with Pat.
Even if he doesn't trust Worthy, he is so wide open, there is going to be no interception. [Reply]
Getting really annoyed with the “Worthy regressing” and especially the “Worthy connection isn’t there what’s wrong with the kid” propaganda because quite honestly there is an issue with the connection between the two and it ain’t Worthy.
Mahomes missed Worthy on 2 wide open TD’s yesterday. Oh and Mahomes was not under pressure either time when Worthy was open. Two horrible throws man.
This kid is open multiple times every single game man
I realize Mahomes isn’t going to ever be the best deep ball thrower, and it’s very likely the wind played a big role yesterday, but you gotta give the kid a real chance now. If he ****s it up, then so be it he’d be an MVS again. But you gotta keep it in bounds and out in front of him.
Thats gonna be Worthy’s game in this league. He theoretically should be MVS on steroids. I think they’ll get it down as we go but it seems like the attempts need to go up regardless. One deep shot a game isn’t enough as an entire offense. [Reply]

Mahomes just kinda gave up after that deep shot.
Maybe he decided the focus should be on moving the chains to get the game back in hand, but man. We are not giving our guy that many opportunities to succeed here if its just 1 deep ball per game. [Reply]

The entire team played piss poor yesterday and got Denver’s absolute best coming off a beat down in Baltimore.
Mahomes left 3 wide open TD’s on the board. McDuffie played his worst game of his career, the OL including our 3 stud IOL all got outplayed and out worked and Chris Jones got outplayed the entire 2nd half.
I think the short week with OT on MNF had this team exhausted. I think that they were also looking ahead to Buffalo. [Reply]

I won’t blame Mahomes for the second one. That was clearly some scramble drill shit and Mahomes would have no way of knowing where Worthy was going to go.
In fact, I might even blame Worthy for appearing to turn outside into the defender with the middle being a complete void.

Clearly Pat has a level of his game in the deep ball that sucks. But the fact is was indeed better at it years ago when Tyreek was here
He wasn’t any better in the past, Tyreek was just different. He made Alex Smith the statistical best deep passer in the NFL in 2017. Alex Smith of all people! [Reply]

Yeah,
I get that, what I don’t get is he had the whole half of the field to use. Throw the ball more toward back pylon. But I understand him hearing footsteps. [Reply]

The more frequently i watch other teams, the more I realize that the scramble drill shit really isn't exclusive to us.
Successful teams are all scoring points off those plays. The Lions were doing it with Goff last night. Stroud did it a couple times.
Those plays are a part of the game now. You have to be able to execute them or you're going to struggle.
Mahomes had an easy throw and a clear lane. He needs to hit that ball. And the other deep shot. And the Kelce ball.
