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]

If he doesn’t make that play, the game is over. Most of his other great plays weren’t necessarily “life or death”. That play also fell apart immediately and the game had major seeding consequences.
That play still doesn’t seem real. Such a perfect pass that no other QB can make in a clutch situation.
Yeah I think that was his best play too. Followed by the run to take the lead and close the half in the AFC championship game.
Edit* shit I forgot about wasp!
There’s so damn many already.
It took Trent approximately 5.5 seasons to get to 118. I know that was a different era, and while that was certainly a high-flying downfield offense we ran at the time, it was the RBs getting the majority of those scores. But still. Holy shit.
Here's a better way of looking at it that the Chiefs official instagram won't show because it doesn't want to completely take a shit on its own history.
Here are the other top 5 guys in franchise history:
5. Alex Smith (102 in 76 games)
4. Bill Kenney (105 in 77 games)
3. Trent Green (118 in 88 games)
1. Len Dawson (237 in 157 games)
Mahomes got to the 2nd spot all time at 120. IN 48 GAMES [Reply]
Lol. So of the guys on that list, and for those of you who aren't human calculators, care to guess who technically has the 2nd best TD/game mark of the 5 guys on that list?
It's Bill Kenney. 1.36 TDs/game.
Trent and Alex are tied with 1.34
Damn, it was cool watching Priest set the all-time mark for TDs in a season, and I know Trent doesn't give a shit, but he really did deserve some better stats with the offense he ran and the profile he carried around the league at the time. [Reply]
Amazing to see it broken down like that, and yeah— it was a different era for Trent. Priest rushed for 21, 27, and 14 touchdowns from 2002 to 2004. Over the same time span Trent threw for 26, 24, and 27 touchdowns. Blah blah blah, my point I suppose— is if Andy coached the Chiefs back then, Trent’s numbers would almost assuredly be better...
But our power sweeps back then with that O Line were a terrible beauty. [Reply]
