On the subject of drops, that needs to be tightened up. Young QB needs those guys to do their job. When the ball is there, catch it.

I don't know if I was pissing or getting a beer or what, but I've seen that referenced a couple of times and I must have missed that one.
But I've said this before and I'll stand by it until the end of time - EVERYONE has drops. Everyone. Over large numbers, they wash out. Kelce has made one-handed catches, stolen balls away in traffic and added 100s of yards to Mahomes overall yardage through YAC (some of it exclusively because of Kelce's efforts).
Balls get dropped - as a general rule I won't give my QB credit for anything that 'would have' happened had the ball not been dropped because I'm generally unwilling to take it away when a WR makes an amazing snag or run after the catch.
