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]
The Chiefs offense in 2014 averaged 22 PPG me that was without a single TD to a WR from Alex Smith. Look back at the early years of Andy in Philly and he had garbage at WR the years before DeSean Jackson (only good with TO for a short time).
If that shit offense from 2014 can average 22 PPG with a bad OL and WR’s + Alex, then we can definitely average around 30 with this years crew [Reply]

Do you have Tyreek? You're elite. Don't have Tyreek? You're not elite.
May as well bring back Alex, run the ball, and play defense.
hyperbole
i appreciate the chiefs have a plan in the post-tyreek era, and i 100% see that plan as an offense that is grittier and more consistent instead of having extreme highs and lows
we became quite good at executing 10 to 14 play drives last season and now we have the personnel to do that at an even higher level
think rich gannon throwing to brown and rice and dumping it to garner and winning mvp, frustrating defenses with his elite scrambling ability...that's why i often compare mahomes running style to gannon, very similar
we already have our tyrone wheatley in ronald jones, and MVS can play the jerry porter role
this is going to be an offense that just laughs at two high and dropping eight [Reply]

This is what gives me hope.
Reid was able to field top 10 scoring offenses with Alex Smith throwing to guys like Junior Hemingway and Donnie Avery. [Reply]

I'm pretty sure every Chiefs game broadcast is going to begin that way, too. Al Michaels gets the mic after Carrie Underwood does her shitty song and says, "Welcome to Kansas City! Now, the Chiefs lost Tyreek Hill in the offseason. Chris, how are they doing without him?"
It will probably be that way all year.
It’s going to be the national narrative…well it already is the narrative. Every news spot about the Chiefs has always had “there’s no Hill” narrative.

You seem to be focusing on the offense slowing down versus being unstoppable. What we want is unstoppable. Who gives a shit if it's slowed down?
Our offense got "slowed down" last year WITH Tyreek. We eventually got it figured out and became efficient and lethal, but our home run big plays just weren't happening the way they were in 2018-2019. Didn't matter. Still put up buttloads of points in the playoffs until the meltdown. [Reply]

How so? That defense ended up being pretty elite statistically (particularly in PPG allowed), but that was the year we lost Eric Berry to cancer and Derrick Johnson to an Achilles', IIRC.
It was not a good unit at stopping the run or taking the ball away. [Reply]
