So when WRs can’t be relied on to hit their spots or find a way to get to the ball, he will usually resort to staring too long or bailing too early.
Mahomes obviously needs to get better. But how can you put this mostly on a qb who is being asked to carry 200x his weight? Right now our WRs are bottom 10 and arguably borderline bottom 5 in the league. I’m not saying that doesn’t improve substantially throughout the season or that we can’t make it work simply by finally finding a juju backfill. But that is the current reality

Because, as has been explained multiple times, he makes 20% of the salary cap. Yeah, he's gonna have to pull 20% of the roster weight if that's the way this is gonna go.
It seems the Chiefs are the only team that has "wr's that don't hit their spots" consistently, it's weird. Almost like it's not actually the case and it may be something else.
