From a Red Raider alum: Things you may not know about Patrick Mahomes II (https://chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=307459)

Being able to make plays when things aren't perfect...that's what separates him from the rest. With a clean pocket, he can make all the throws...and when things go wrong he can bail you out.

However, I DO think he needs to get some "on the field" playing time in games where he can be afforded the opportunity to do so--

How about any game we're down 14+ heading into the 4th?

Absolutely put him in.

I love our new Tech Mahomes fans.

What an incredible upgrade over the clogged septic system we received on our LAST go around at QB acquisition.

I think I'll get season tickets in 2018 if he's gonna be the starter

Don't think he's ready to start. Not even if he has an All-Pro performance training camp. He needs to break some bad habits, chief among them (no pun intended) is his mistaken thinking that he's also a fullback. Second, he needs to learn when to sacrifice the play and let it die a natural, non-traumatic peaceful death. This will be harder for him to learn because it is never taught at Texas Tech.

My thoughts exactly especially what is in bold. But you really can't blame the kid at that time knowing he has an awful defense and he is the only offensive weapon they had.

No doubt. People are going to be excited about Chiefs football again. Quite a few folks let their option go when Captain Checkpants arrived from San Francisco.

That's awesome that he's a good guy and humble. Christian Ponder was humble too. He's still gonna bust.

It is good to be excited about KC football again--and with not just the "hope" of greatness, but now with the expectations of greatness. This is a kid you can build an offense around. Mark my words: If he performs at KC the way he did at Tech, you will have receivers WANTING to exercise their free agency and come to KC for a shot at a ring.

Dang but I can't wait for training camp and the season!

This is where Mahomes will have to become "professionally mature" and learn that "going for broke" with his body is fine if it is for the AFC championship or the Super Bowl. But it's not okay going for a first down against the likes of the Jets.
