Why would you want him to stop? Sure you'll get a turnover here & there, but he's proven he's good enough at making those throws that the reward far outweighs the risk and some of those types of throws are what make him Patrick Mahomes. [Reply]
So many great throws have been dropped or wiped out by flags the last few years.
That bomb to Hill a few years ago vs the Raiders might be the worst. Could be Mahomes’ best throw ever. Wiped away by a weak holding call. Plays like that should still be in the highlight reels. [Reply]

He’s made a few boneheaded throws this year, but it happens. His INT % is still upper half in the league and exactly the same as Burrow’s. I don’t see anyone saying that Burrow makes bad choices. [Reply]

The greatest throw I've ever seen is still the superman TD pass (dropped) to Williams in the Super Bowl. Ya know the one that hits him right in the mouth? [Reply]

Yeah, that was ridiculous.
The one I'm talking about was the bomb that traveled 65 yds through the air and was perfectly placed to a doubled Tyreek. [Reply]
If only Alex would take a few more chances and push the ball down the field.
I'd be ok with an occasional int.
I love Alex but times ticking our windows closing yet again.
If he doesn't change his ways we'll never make it to the Ship. [Reply]
And the first OL injury domino started on the next play, when Osemele blew out his knee while Mahomes was scrambling. And the Chiefs ended up losing that game.
Was that a fucking Cheffers crew game? I think it was.
Anyway, I'd like to see what the universe where that flag isn't thrown looks like. Do the Chiefs win that one? Does Osemele make it through the whole season healthy?
If so, they're undefeated heading into week 17 and probably aim for 16-0. Does a healthy Osemele make a difference in the Super Bowl? [Reply]

Converted 3rd down from inside the 10 yard line on a 97 yards drive to tie a game we were behind in and barely won in OT, and you are calling it stupid?
We punt there we very well could have lost. [Reply]

It was the first half. Too early to go into desperate mode. Throw an interception and you dig a worse hole than punting. [Reply]
