Because he was actually pretty damn good. The only guy I noticed out there who seemed genuinely full speed and looked like a competent NFL WR. He was just moving differently.

And as I was watching the routes, MVS looked noticeably better than anyone out there, including Rice. He was confident in his movements and in attacking the ball. It's maybe the one positive takeaway I had from the offense tonight. I could tell which one was him before I could pick up the numbers. He looked like a real handful for that secondary and just wasn't getting the ball for some reason.
Mahomes had him down the left sideline once for a likely score and then on a deep crosser that was a DEFINITE score. I mean it was as bad a missed shot as you'll see from a good quarterback. I bet it's in one of these clips out here. I couldn't believe he didn't pull the trigger. He was going from Mahomes right to his left and I swear Mahomes looked right at him - just wouldn't let the ball go.
MVS had me optimistic for him going forward. He looked legit.
EDIT: Well hell, looks like Clay mentioned the play I'm talking about already. Yeah - that was so very bad.

MVS is real NFL WR. That's why he stood out. Nelson Agholor, a JAG would have been better than anything else we trotted out there last night.
