Why would he keep running to the sidelines instead of going through his progressions? Steelers were not giving that much pressure, he should have stayed in the pocket and thrown the ball away if nobody was open. A QB can throw it out of bounds, right? They don't have to run it out. He has trouble throwing on the run- so basically as soon as he runs-that's it, the play is over.
Mahomes can use his feet to extend plays and burn a blitzing defense from Anywhere on the field up to 60 yards deeps.
Big difference. Mahomes- roams, while Smitter is a quitter.

I do agree that Mahomes is a better thrower on the run. Alex tucks it and runs but most of the time he gets yards rather than just throwing it away
