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]

It matters yeah but if it was THAT significant then we would have won a SB in the last few years... we always had a great turnover differential. [Reply]
Reid was brought up and it's a good point. If Pat struggles to learn from his mistakes I would expect Andy to figure out a way to put him in a good spot. I also really haven't seen Mahomes make the same mistake over and over. Some of that is obviously due to the small body of work.
Also, people who point to the bomb as the only good pass either didn't watch the game or don't comprehend how good the pass to Kelce was. [Reply]
I can see the commentary from doubters now after we put up 30 on the Chargers. People will say it was about the Chargers defense not being as good as advertised and Mahomes just benefiting from Reid having their number. Also, probably something like Mahomes’ terrible interception got bailed out by a terrible Rivers one.
It’s just really annoying that I get the sense that there are some people that seemingly want him to fail because of too many INTs so that they can talk about mistakenly trading away the number one rated passer or just for hoping their predictions of 8 wins maximum are accurate. [Reply]
Turnovers are overrated. They only matter if you get 7 or give up 7. Smith couldn't take advantage of all the turnovers just like he couldn't score in the red zone. He stunk at getting tds. [Reply]

Calm down Francis, you're creating a narrative out of no where. There's a handful of Alexsexuals still peeking out of the closet but the expectations are sky high for Mahomes overall. Relax and enjoy the 68 yard bombs P-52 is about to drop on various enemy Donk and Fade positions along the front lines. [Reply]
Since Andy Reid took over in 2013, the Chiefs are +60 in turnovers. What do we have to show for it? One playoff win against a terrible team. Lulz. [Reply]

And they have the nerve in cheaters land to say that they weren't deflating footballs. They go from years of never fumbling at a rate thought to be impossile to reach to +2. Just like that? They were doing that shit for years. That's proof. [Reply]
