Mahomes already has pressure he puts on himself to fix his mistakes. He wants to be great. Keeping him at number 3 when has outplayed Bray in camp and thoroughly showed he was far superior in the first game makes no sense.

PM2 should be the backup and Bray should be working at Buffalo Wild Wings.

That ball was a floater.

He laid it in over the defender, and put it only where Kemp could make a play.

No mustard, at all.

I can't argue with any of this. Mahomes is better, and it's obvious.

Alex breaks almost every season, and Reid knows this. If Bray goes out there it's going to be a trainwreck. I don't know why he is still around.

There won't be a QB controversy this season because Alex is light years ahead of Mahomes in regards to running the team. That first drive was beautifully executed.

SAUTO is right. I'm talking about this play, not the TD:

Pm2 by all accounts- had an admirable first game. The stats back that up since they were better than every other QB and Far better than Stove or Bray.

You used Alex stats, which were average at best- as a tool to make his performances on the field and especially in the playoff game- much better than what everyone saw with their own eyes. You purposely over dramatized his stats to back up your fairy tale wet dreams.

Do you see the difference? :hmmm:

Okay, yeah.

That play shows off his arm, and accuracy.

Andy is going to make PM2 earn his way- from #3 to the starter- and I respect that. So far, besides a few ints in camp where he was testing the speed of the defenses and lost- he has been pretty amazing. The kid is so talented that all of sudden Alex is stepping up his game too.

Bray had his shot to keep holding the clipboard and played like...well Bray. Who is really surprised? PM2 will learn a lot from Alex on how to manage a game and be a professional. If Alex does get his noggin scrambled again- I think Mahomes will play at least good enough not to lose, just like Alex does.

Oh for fucks sake.. did you just start watching football.. I've seen 50+ QB's the last 2 years make that same throw.. get out more and watch some other teams...

Threw some screens, nothing to get excited about- hit a couple nice ones across the middle- Took a bad sack, Didnt see him take a snap from center and setup to pass.. Probably a good thing.. I would have done the same as Reid.. let him take some snaps from center and hand the ball off.. makes sense.. Andy's doing the right thing...

But yeah- avg to good start- Coulda been worse, and I've seen worse from rookie QB's

He's got a long way to go but he seems to have the skills for a coach to fix-
BINGO !!

But I would have given him a B minus just because he is so much more raw than Trub and Watson from under center and the play calling and penalties made it difficult to establish any kind of rhythm for him.

His pocket awareness needs to be a tad quicker though because there were two other times where he escaped that he made plays had he been going against a No.1 D that those would have been sacks and to someone else's point that TD pass is a pick against a No.1 D.

But overall I liked what I saw to someone's else's point about his "poise" that AR is rubbing off on him by not trying make more of a play than what it is.

THAT means something.
Josh Freeman, RGIII, Johnnie 8-ball and Kordell frekin Stewart did the same thing in their short NFL career...

That sh*t don't work in the NFL

Mahomes keeps that sh*t up and trying to big12 sandlot his way through the NFL he'll be punch drunk by his 2nd year...

I am not hoping Mahomes fails. As a Chiefs fan I hope he turns out to be the next Brady but at the same time I'm not going get excited just because he is a 1st rd draft pick. I want to see something that impresses me before I get too excited and I have that right. I didn't see anything last night that got me that excited. That's just being honest.

To be fair that's to be expected it's his first preseason game and he barely played. He could have a bad first year and still turn out to be great so I'm not concerned at all. I'm going to be patient with him.

Just because he is a rookie doesn't mean he isn't allowed to get criticized.
...many people on this forum put way too much stock into the play of the QB. They think in total absolutes. False expectations.

...some are way too wrapped up in it. and so it goes.
