Every split second of anticipating is a thousand years in nfl time. And Mvs/Watson are boom/bust options. We know this. The majority of the time they don’t get separation. We just rely on them to break free a few times a game. At this point in their career it is who they are. So that leaves the majority of snaps where it’s really hard for mahomes to have any clue who to target.
And this is all by the way contingent on WRs separating. Most QBs don’t even need WRs to separate because in a pinch that can toss up 50/50 balls and ask their WRs to make plays.
The narrative is easy. Right now our WRs are playing like a bottom 5 unit. The whole “blame the qb for not carrying a bottom 5 unit” is shit that should not fly either.

The ****ing quarterback makes 50 million dollars a year. This all ties in here.
Could the group be better at WR? Sure.
But if we're wanting a group that's gonna be separating every play, well that's just gonna come at the cost of the OL or the defense. Which you've advocated you are ok with, again, which is fine.
But that's on the QB. You want the big contract and all the shit? Yeah, you're gonna need to play like you did last year.
Just playing like a "top 10 good QB" isn't good enough when you make what you make.
