But if someone can teach that fat dinosaur Kirstie Alley to mamba I'm sure 2PM can learn to take a 3 step drop and square his shoulders...

I am sure he will have much better protection now than he ever had in college. Seemed he was running for his life after every snap.

So if he can already throw a 65 yard laser for a TD off his back foot consistently - what is he going to be like when he gets coached up?

However, none of the other QB's in the draft have the upside of Pat Mahomes.

Another excellent post. I will take your word on it- you have seen a lot more of PM2 then most on this board.

I did not watch much of him at all before the draft- what I saw I really liked, but did not want to get my hopes up again. I was shocked the Chiefs moved up and broke our Curse.

Since the draft, I have been going back and watching his highlights and some of the games. Some of the throws he makes are simply amazing and I love his will to win. All of his interviews have been great and that makes me like him more. The Gruden camp was very impressive- I think it will have an impact on him.

I think PM2 can redefine the QB position and bring several Championships to KC if he keeps improving like he did in college.

Paging Tyreek Hill. Tyreek Hill report to the huddle please. Pick up the white courtesy phone.

Michael Lombardi was just on Rich Eisen & he said the Chiefs were on Mahomes in the 3rd game of the season.

Thanks to the new members from Tech; it's great to get all of this inside information!
I've been watching every interview and presser I can get my hands on, and I'm super stoked for the PMII era to kick off.

Mahomy told Gruden that if he has a pocket to throw from he can make every throw.

Yes, Pat is being pretty humble there with the pocket comment. The kid doesn't need one. ROFL

I think Smith needs to take some extra Tylenol and see how it affects his liver.

As long as they don't overdo it on the coaching end. Paralysis by analysis can ruin his natural ability and cause him to lose his confidence. Let his natural tendencies come out on the field and make minor adjustments and suggestions and sit back and enjoy the show!

I see what you did there. :)

The more I read, watch, and hear him - the more I am happy with this pick. I wasn't at first.

I saw him interviewed on GMFB. He thinks he can throw 85 yards in the air. The one everyone is talking about "came out with a little wobble" because he over threw it. They gave him a scenario, something like, will you take the safe pass or throw it to a WR with 1/2 a step on the DB. He said WR because "he can put it out there for his WR to win". Love the mentality.

It's going to be nice, in a season or two, to have somebody that can sling the ball and isn't afraid of tight windows.

Was just thinking...there is no way I am missing camp now. First time in YEARS I have a reason to go.

They asked him (paraphrased) "It's your first NFL play EVER ... The fullback is wide open coming across the middle five yards deep. The wide receiver has a half step on the DB on a go route. Who do you throw to? Remember, this is your first NFL play ever."

Pat says,(also paraphrased) "Probably the wide receiver. I mean, I'm not gonna lie to you. If he's got half a step I'm gonna give him the chance to make a play. NFL wide receivers are pretty good. They get paid to make the big plays."
