Sprinkle in a few of Mahomes favorite Texas Tech play calls ala Texans/Watson, and KC could finish with a winning record in Mahomes first season.

This is a great outlook, very much in-line with my own. The most exciting element of 2018 Chiefs football, for ME, is observing the development of Mahomes as the season progresses.
Ideally( and a real confidence booster for Mahomes, as well as the rest of the team )we'd be headed to a Wild Card with the entire unit having caught some late season fire, but I'm not going to panic if we don't. Just finishing above .500 with Mahomes and the offense showing signs of cohesion and growth is an INCREDIBLY successful season IMO.
