I'm not saying that there weren't a lot of drops, but that would have been a hell of a catch. He elevated and it was off his fingers. Not impossible, but difficult. [Reply]

Because you’re right that mahomes seems to show the worst habits like bailing on the pocket or his biggest frustration when he doesn’t trust his WRs to hit their spots. Even an average WR like Watson can get targets simply by doing his job.
I realize it's sacrilegious around here but....that's on Pat.
Skyy was open alot last week. Stand in the pocket and throw the football.
Pat played a shit game last week I though from where I was sitting. It looked alot like that 2021 season where he had no confidence and was unsure what he was seeing. [Reply]

He's already showing the horrible attitude during adversity as well. Maybe Reid and Mahomes could've eventually worked that out of him, maybe not.
Yeah - but it looks like I might finally get to start singing the praises of my boy Calvin Austin III! Welcome back, waterbug...
Y'know, a better, faster, more athletic version of the undersized guy we took in the 2nd who went 85 picks later... [Reply]

McKinnon was wide open on that play. For some reason they were targeting Moore and toney too much. [Reply]

Felt the same. He scrambled a lot in those 2021 games I guess because he didn't trust what he was seeing.
Whatever the issue is, Kelce isn't gonna be around forever. He's gotta have someone in the WR group he can rely on. That's why I'm okay with these warts showing up now instead of later. [Reply]

Stand in the pocket and throw the football though and we dont' have to rely on that. You can't rely on it and be consistent.
I Did notice him bailing on a few good pockets the other night but you can't say it's on Pat when Sky is droppy mcdrop boy in key moments. I don't think that pat standing in the pocket there would have mattered either way? no?
Pat is a man he can improve just like anyone else, but imo sky has shown nothing special and he is showing he can't do his literal job wich is catch the football. Open or not he isn't helping Pat trust him. [Reply]
The scrambling run around stuff is awesome and great. He's unreal at it.
But it tends to become a crutch IMO. When the offense is absolutely rolling, he's standing in the pocket throwing the football around everywhere. [Reply]
