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]

“He does that fairly easy — that’s not a tough thing for him to be able to spit it out,” Reid said. “We’ve got a few words we’ve got on these routes and he handles that pretty well. And really, we saw that even when we brought him in for that predraft test. He was able to handle that pretty well.”
Yeah it's amazing how we've just glossed over the fact that he had absolutely no false starts, delays of game or timeouts called due to the fact that his head was up his ass.

Agreed.
The missed pass to Dieter really stood out. His first read was covered and he saw the defenders closing, so he felt the pressure and moved out of the pocket and to his 2nd read quickly. Even though it was one of 2 incomplete passes, it showed experience.
That's exceeding the expectation of a 21 year old rookie from a college spread offense. [Reply]

You sound like a bitter Alexsexual.
HOF potential! You can totally tell already! :-) [Reply]

The guy was being compared to HOFers by the HC and GM that drafted him. HOF QB's like Favre and Marino said he reminds them of themselves.
I know you don't want it to be true, but it's the fucking truth. He has ridiculous upside. That doesn't mean he's going to reach it, but it is what it is.
I do know one thing for sure, he'll be better than any of Elway's QB selections! [Reply]

Lay off the Vail. He didn't come here to slam us when we sucked (as far as I know).
Have some class and act like you've been there before. And back the fuck off my man Vailpass. He cool. [Reply]
