Throwing across your body even slightly is shunned in this league, and Mahomes makes it look effortless. He's going to use that a lot, and I don't think Reid and his staff are going to "coach" that out of him. Nor should they. THAT'S why you drafted this kid.

Trubisky was pretty good, though he looked a lot more erratic and less confident than Mahomes. He made big plays and didn't screw up, though. Not much more you can expect from a rookie.

Watson is the worst of the bunch. You were criticizing Mahomes earlier for his mechanics? What do you think Watson just put up yesterday? O

Two plays stand out in my mind and are evidently clear why Mahomes is a real professional QB and why Watson should take his talents to Canada if he wants a long term impact with a team. Those simple dig routes that Mahomes throws through tight windows--- one to Gehrig, and one to Robinson (again, called back on a penalty). Those were absolute dart throws. Tons of velocity with good location for the receiver to pick up on them without having to do a body contortion to have a shot at it. A throw Brett Favre has had success with hundreds of times with Donald Driver alone.

Those are the throws that make Mahomes so valuable. There are some very good starting QBs in the league right now who CAN'T make those simple 15-yard throws with the requisite velocity for a completion.

Watson is one of those guys who can't make those throws. You also compound that with his INACCURACY when even attempting a throw near the height of his velocity or throwing distance, and he becomes a real mess. Good playmaker, confident in the pocket (or whatever he would call one) and has a great clock in his head, knowing when he has to evade pressure. But he's got a problem with his arm-- the same problem that Doug Flutie had.

Alex Smith gets erratic at times, yes? He's not the coolest cucumber when facing pressure. But he usually makes good choices, or at least choices that won't get him killed. That's what I meant. You can lack confidence and show it visibly and still make big plays. If the refs aren't shit heads on that Conley OPI, Tyler Bray has a pretty damn good TD to crow about. Big play. Was he a confident QB last night? Uhhh...

And I'm not talking about the first throw, dipshit. I know what a ****ing dart is. An arc is not a goddamn dart.

How am I doing the "My new car is shinier than yours" bit? The only QB I'm shitting on is Watson. I said the other guys looked pretty good. I even said a QB other than Mahomes looked the best out of the group of four. How the **** am I not being objective?
Cross reference what is in bold. You already mentioned Dieter's dart, who was the other so called dart throw to if it was not Robinson that was called back? You meant what you said. Own it.
