Is there even really a debate about chicken or egg?
I mean, I will easily concede that it was the 4th quarter implosion that really hammered home the doubts here. And that they were likely even justified for a bit. I have no qualms saying "Man, our receivers eating shit against Detroit really put Mahomes into a tailspin". There - done. It ain't chicken or egg now. It's egg.
But my major point is that NONE of that's gonna change. He has what he has. So he can either keep worrying about it or he can throw the damn football.
Setting aside for a moment what the 'cause' of the indecision may be, the solution HAS to be with Mahomes. I just can't imagine Richie James getting another shot at this is going to save the day. Moore got sidelined for all intents and purposes last week.
If there's a solution, it's going to be 15 that effectuates it.
