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]

Especially a guy that's supposed to be a power back. What's he angling towards the sideline for anyway? It was one of those 'sneaky awful' plays that was damn near as damaging as the Watkins drop. Killed a drive for no reason whatsoever.
Fouts blamed Mahomes- he literally said, the power of the throw knocked him out of bounds. :-) [Reply]
GMF's Kay Adams is trying to make Patomic Bomb to happen as a nickname.
Nope, Lion's Fans and Golden Tate threw a bitch fit about using Showtime . LOL, they fucked up with such an emotional response it's Mahomes' to use . [Reply]

There are pretty much zero effective quarterbacks in this league operating under 60% and they all have drops.
If you can't get over 60% WITH the drops included, you need to do something different. You need to improve your execution or change your style of play. I think Mahomes can do the former and I think he will.
But don't make excuses for that completion percentage. Even 'in context' it's not acceptable as a going matter.
It's one game.
Lots of QB's have games where they go 15 of 27, but they don't always go for 250 and 4 TD's and 0 turnovers in those games.
You're making a mountain out of a molehill. [Reply]

I well know that Spencer isn't stupid. My guess is that he is either skittish about taking hits on that knee or maybe he wasn't clear on the down. It looked to me like he thought he could make the LOG and just misjudged it. Maybe.
Still, that knee is basically rebuilt from scratch. Definitely should have gotten the first, but (considering it's his first game back on that leg) he gets a pass from me.
This discuss this play. The play design is $$. Chiefs use the FB (21 personnel) as a wing instead of being in 12 personnel which keeps the Chargers in base. That leaves Sherman on a slow LB. Beautiful throw. Simple route concept. All Go. Perfectly done pic.twitter.com/gZiMIMAzXK
Dj brought this up in some thread and I thought I'd put it here, but this is the kind of stuff Reid doesn't get credit for.
Mostly because the casual fan has no clue about it, hell I didn't either, but there ya go
Did you notice how wide open Hunt was on that play? Would have been a first down easy. Alex would have thrown it to Hunt. [Reply]
