It's a great ****ing throw and was delivered in the correct way, as I've said. However, it isn't some grand display of touch as everyone is trying to make it out to be. I don't see how that's so offensive to say.
Me: "yeah it would be super cool if he became a ****ing guru at touch passes alongside being able to laser that shit"
Everyone: "omfg you love alex smith because you live in seattle and he is already a guru master at everything in year 1 *insert random insult about homosexuality and/or about parents*

His interception was due to either an overthrow or miscommunication. Just a mistake. He can throw touch passes. Of course he can improve. Favre improved as he got more experience
His interception didn't bother me that much. An inaccurate pass: not something you'll see often with Mahomes. I was more bothered with his short incompletion to Sherman late in the game that could have been picked.
Mahomes needs to learn that it's okay to throw it away. I fear he will trust his arm too much and get in trouble. Experience will help. Mahomes is smart and wants to get better
