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.

The scoring TD to Hill that took 12 seconds verse the Pats last week was inside the pocket- so it is pretty misleading that if you can keep him from rolling out he won't beat you. But of course, they use the scramble TD during the San Fran game to try and prove their point.
Hopefully, teams will ditch the "Blitz Mahomes and he will not beat you" narrative that didn't work and start rushing 3 to keep him in the pocket-lol
