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]

I don't know if it ever becomes public, but Smith did Andy and Co. a solid. He went to them with his plans beyond the 2017 season.. and it does not involve playing football. This is why there was great urgency on a young QBotF being targeted.
I forgot about your ability to channel AS's thoughts and emotions. Is there anyway you can reverse the flow and let AS know how all the fans feel about him ? If so, tell him to be packing his fucking bags. [Reply]

Based on what, exactly?
What makes you believe that Andy Reid, Brett Veach and Clark Hunt will make the decision to tank the season by putting in an inexperienced 21 year old QB that's never played under center in his entire life, is still learning the playbook and has zero experience reading NFL defenses, when they have SIX National Prime Time games?
"uh hey yeah guys...i've decided the concussions are too much of a risk...so i'm gonna play one more year on a worse team just in case i can get carried off on a stretcher and get some sympathy or something...maybe an injury settlement..."
"but yeah i'm done with football...after one more year of futile checkdowns for no reason...so go ahead and draft a QB cus i'm outta here after i risk my long term health for just one more year....thought I'd level with yall."

Please, explain.
Well obviously if they play him it's because they think he gives them a better chance of winning. If not Smith is gonna play.
Everyone is taking their stance way too far [Reply]

I have already stated it. I think he takes over sometime after the Bye. [Reply]
