I found that interesting, and that throw is much like a SS throwing to first after a slow-roller.
Now, I am sure Mahomes isn't the first baseball/football player to play QB, but it may actucally give him so leeway on his footwork in the sense of consistency. If that is the case, the footwork is actually intentional and developed, and doesn't appear to affect his accuracy.

Yep, and I originally (foolishly) thought that was a bad thing at the time. The more I watch of him, I see how great an attribute this is. Not only can he wing it with that arm, but it allows him to wait a split second longer which can mean all the difference.
