Will the league adjust and cause some problems? Sure. But it's not like Mahomes is out here doing this all on his own with pedestrian talent. We've got 4 skill players at the absolute top of their games and a head coach who's one of the best offensive minds in NFL history.
Alex Smith had a career year last year with this offense w/o Sammy Watkins.
Hell Elvis Grbac would have a great year with this offense - kinda like he did in 2000 when everyone was just wide open all the time - throwing for 28TDs and 4k yards. Don't tell me the league just couldn't adjust to Grbac's brilliance. They couldn't adjust to TG and Derrick Alexander running wild and getting open all the time. TRich was a beast that year too. Grbac went to the Ravens the next year and couldn't do shit.

That's the truth. Not like he was throwing a bunch of 50/50 jump balls (Deshaun Watson/Hopkins last year). Watson threw an interception on one of those jump balls today actually.
Mahomes was in TOTAL control of the game today. None of those passes were in danger of getting picked off. It was a somewhat toned down version of what Mahomes can do with the ball. He stayed with the intermediate passing game for the most part instead of going for the home run balls like we saw against the Chargers last week.
