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'll readily admit that I didn't watch the Falcons game live and was reading about it on CP in and out while sitting at a slot machine waiting for my BIL and his GF to hurry up and get ready for dinner. I think that spoiled my thinking a bit. [Reply]
We talked about it somewhere recently, but there just isn't anything you can do to simulate live game action without....live game action. We will probably never see the actual benefits from the year on the bench, but you've gotta play to get experience.
I think after considering the alternative, it had to happen the way it did, it just sucks that it's gonna take more time. [Reply]

im not saying to count it..im saying his QBR is ALREADY one of the best in preseason without it (120?)
youre acting like he has played poorly when it matters...I am saying if you want to interpret something l, look at the actual games he plays in...as those are more important than practice as some sort of tea leaf
thats the thing...
I get the feeling when it matters this dude is going to ball out....
when it matters
unlike the last two chumps we have had here [Reply]

What stands out to me about Pat thus far, and the main reason why i feel he'll be turnover prone, is that the game hasn't slowed down enough yet.
It will. Aint even worried about it.
But i feel like he's hesitating a bit and it looks like he needs another second or two in the pocket than what he's getting, and will rarely get.
He gets all kinds of time to throw in camp. That has happened in the preseason. [Reply]

But I don't think that's what we'll get with Pat.
But Reid, Pat’s arm, the receiving trio ft. Robinson, and Hunt/Ware should give the offense plenty of big plays and scoring drives to offset a lot of those turnovers. [Reply]
