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]

Likely just some leftover Reiter, Wylie, Remmers, Allgretti PTSD

It happened again in the Colts game that year. Maybe it was Wylie the second time.
And both were after his sprain against Jacksonville in Week 1. [Reply]

I told both of my brothers before that game that the chiefs’ best shot at winning was playing Mahomes. It was so obvious but I understand why it didn’t happen.
Mahomes would have had the advantage for a couple games while defenses were figuring out what hit them. I could see Andy making a lot of hay out of that advantage. [Reply]

Imagine Mahomes against those loaded boxes that we saw that year when Kareem Hunt was leading the league in rushing… [Reply]

The Steelers game (2018) is a great example of what happened when someone tried to play the Alex defense against Mahomes. [Reply]

That was a thing of absolute beauty. The refs tried bailing them out and couldn’t save them. [Reply]

That’s when I knew we were in for a new era. That defense was absolutely Alex’s kryptonite, and Mahomes smoked them at a level I hadn’t ever seen before. [Reply]

He had the perfect chance, too, during that god-awful five of six losing stretch. The whole league would have gotten it. Alex defenders might point out that we would not have nearly received the compensation we did for Alex had Andy done that.. but, does our season end against Tennessee? I highly doubt it. [Reply]
