Alex liked to throw low and not high. Part of his 'protect the football' mentality.
However the thing about mahomes is that he FINDS openings to throw the ball. He can throw from different angles. Rich Gannon was GREAT at this. It was one of the little things he did that helped him succeed with his less than impressive talent.
Alex could only really do one thing when plays got sloppy... run. That's it.
