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]

And by that I mean Marcus was being a real McAsshole.
Yeah. Can totally see Marcus getting pissy that Mahomes was torching his ass in practice and being an asshole about it. [Reply]

Peters will never touch the ball all game. Just like he won't touch Kareem Hunt... [Reply]

Tamba said from what he saw last year he thinks the kid is Brett Favre.
Here's the direct quote:
"You're going to get a complete player," Hali said Wednesday during a guest appearance on the NFL Network's Good Morning Football. "I mean, he's a smart player. He can throw the ball. Athletically, he's gifted. You don't have to coach it.
"In practice I'd watch him just look guys off. I mean, Eric Berry, you look him off and complete the ball. He did it to Marcus Peters a lot. So, people don't know what's coming. I don't want to hype him, but I compare him to Brett Favre. He runs around the field and he throws the ball and he's just having fun." [Reply]

As NFL fans, follower and writers, we only have Week 17. Hali watched him every day in practice for most of the season.
“You’re going to get a complete player,” Hali said of Mahomes. “He’s a smart player. He can throw the ball. Athletically, he’s gifted. You don’t have to coach him. In practice, I’ve watched him just look guys off—Eric Berry, look him off, complete a ball. He did it to Marcus Peters a lot—people don’t know what’s coming. I don’t want to hype him but I compare him to Brett Favre. He runs around the field, he throws the ball. He’s just having fun.”
Hali’s quote on Mahomes reminded me of an interview Marcus Peters did with NFL Network shortly after the Chiefs traded him to the Los Angeles Rams.
The host asked Peters what he expected when the Chiefs play the Rams on Monday Night Football in Mexico City, now scheduled for November 19.
“I’m expecting turnovers and I’m expecting a win,” he said. “[Patrick Mahomes knows] how to give me the ball.”
Hali provided us with the other side of the story on Wednesday.
Asked in a follow-up about what makes him so sure about Mahomes, Hali put it rather frankly.
“What’s working for him is what I believe is the best coach in the league in Andy Reid,” Hali said.
