Chiefs *****The Patrick Mahomes Thread***** - Page 692

IT ****ING HAPPENED

OP UPDATE:

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!

Again, the short stop throws.

The kid has just has IT, not just arm talent, not just incredible intangibles... its just all packaged together as IT

This offense is going to take a huge shit all over the NFLs head, I swear it

Considering Mahomes works out...and we are grabbing guys like Watkins who I consider to be potentially excellent weapons for him...what team in the recent or semi-recent past do you think we could compare the Chiefs to? What do you think we are in for? Mid 2000’s to recent Steelers? Packers?

Until we shore up the defense, 90s Dolphins.

If Berry somehow STILL manages to beast, 00s Colts.

i was purely talking about offensively, but yeah, final standings will rely on the defense as well :-)

Dude I honestly dont know who I'd compare us to yet, but if I had to guess... think early Rodgers

While I believe Pat is closer to Favre as a QB, that era of offense was so long ago that I'm thinking Packers with Rodgers... I've devoutly watched football since the late 70s, but I've never seen anyone make quite the same kinds of throws as Pat Mahomes

Theres one from preseason that I call 'The Last Airbender', where he is rolling right and fires a dart straight down the seam, that suddenly arcs toward the sideline like a curveball in baseball to perfectly meet the receiver (Robinson I believe) in stride

It was sickening, and I was absolutely sold at that point

I keep thinking early Rodgers Packers as well. They had some fun teams.

Because waiting gets you jack and shit. Do you realize how absolutely FORTUNATE the Chiefs were to have Veach eyeballing this kid????

Or do you think KC would have practiced that high a level of diligence throughout the Reid/Smith era?:-):-):-):-)

Yeah.

RIGHT.:-)

My motherfucking ass, they would.(NOT).

Organizations, and the Chiefs especially prior to Veach/Dorsey, DO NOT WORK LIKE THAT.

EVER.

To sit here after the fact like some dumbass who answered your question prior to me, claiming that it was "all part of the plan/process", is the same stupid motherfucker who understands NOTHING about the laziness and complacency of your average, NFL team and general manager.

But...."Lil Chiefy"/not shocked/same old morons spewing the same old shit/whatever, and so on...

Now the process has proven that it was worth the wait.

^^^^^^Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand case.

In motherfucking.

POINT.

John Elway is who I think of when it comes to playground ball working so effortlessly. Elway taught a whole generation of QBs bad habits (including Favre)because he could get away with them because of his talent.

Was bored this morning so watched the Denver game again. It makes me smile every time when at about 8:07 in the third Jay Feely confidently asserts that Smith will be the quarter back in 2018.
