I can see this point. Mahomes throws you the ball and you weren't in the spot you were supposed to be.... everyone in the stadium knows he's pissed off at you. That seems to piss him off on the field more than anything,

He gets openly frustrated by 'effort' mistakes more than anything.
Think of the times he's really gotten on Hardman in the past and again on Moore this season - they're plays where the guy didn't finish the play off. He quit on the route or didn't go all out to get to a ball.
Mahomes seems somewhat patient when it comes to mental errors (he didn't react when he threw that pick against SF when Moore clearly blew the route). He seems to understand that this is a process.
But if he's getting frustrated with a player on the field, it's probably because he doesn't think that player finished the play off. Then when you see Moore jake a downfield block and notice the contrast in how he speaks of Toney (or even Watson) vs. Moore - well, some pieces start to fall into place.
