I felt, and said as much several times, that maybe Mahomes relied too much on Hill; waiting too long to see if he'd clear coverage rather than taking the easy completions/throws/first downs.
It's entirely possible that this team may be better if not right away, certainly by late in the season IF they re-stock the position with multiple quality receivers.
It's a big IF, but I'm sure Veach is working on it right now.
I'm excited, this is a fun problem to ponder, and I'm sure they'll get it figured out.
