Wouldn't that mean Mahomes is getting great blocking and does not have the need to run from pressure?

Mahomes threw a bomb (68 yards in the air) from the pocket during the preseason.
That's what people are saying, to be sure, Mr. Halfcan. PFF thinks it. FO thinks it. The nogs are saying it. I don't have the time to chart stuff like that or I'd probably think it, too.

Thing is, it doesn't make a hell of a lot of sense. Either he's not reading the field as well as Wally would like or he's freelancing a bit too much? Or maybe the line isn't pass-protecting as well as I thought? I don't know.

I do know that our guys are getting open more often than not. On almost every damn play, there's somebody wide freaking open. I've never seen anything like it. Watching the All-22, I find myself constantly saying, "Throw it to [insert receiver's name here]!"

I'm going out on a limb and saying the inside pressure is causing a problem. THT should be better from the pocket. We know he's more than capable.
