2. Nothing Herbert did in that game, with MAYBE exception to that 4th down laser thrown, was remotely close to either of Pat's TDs last night. Pat could most assuredly make the Herbert throw, not so sure Herbert could have done either of the Pat TD throws (maybe the Watson throw (as that was more straight away step up in the pocket), but not the McKinnon throw)

On top of that Herbert had amazing protection from his Oline in the first 3 quarters. It wasn't really until the 4th that our pass rush was knocking him down.
Mahomes had horrid protection most of the night. Much of the time there wasn't a pocket for him to step into, and Bosa/Mack were wrecking on the edge.
We had a strong running game but of course Andy went away from it too early and Mahomes started to force hero balls downfield.
I'm glad he is a badass and made those clutch TD throws.
