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]

Let’s hope not. Again, I just can’t see teams daring us to throw on them down field with stacked boxes. Too risky with the talent at WR and TE, as well as QB of course.

I think Kareem feasts this year.
I agree- the Chiefs running game will have to be respected. Hunt is going to be much-improved catching passes, according to his own goals- and has already worked with Mahomes. They seem to have a great chemistry. [Reply]
You know what was the start of the downfall for RG3. I was watching the game, and with about 10 minutes left, RG3 was scrambling around trying to keep the drive alive when he was blindsided by Haloti Ngata. He left the game and Kirk Cousins came in and actually pulled out the win. Ironically RG3 is now fighting for the backup position on the Ravens with Lamar Jackson.
From what I've seen of Mahomes, you have a real keeper and a bright future in KC. [Reply]

The all too predictable narrative next season will be that Reid didn't run the ball enough.
Throw the ball early and often to get a lead. Then run it to salt it away.
But Hunt was averaging 5.6YPC and only got 12 carries! Reid can't call plays! He's trying to get too cute again! This team is getting nowhere with this play calling! [Reply]

Of course. Game flow dictates carries. But that won't stop the criticism.
Personally, idc. If i were a HC and i had Mahomes, Reek, Kelce and Watkins i'd wanna throw it every damn down too :-)
