He wasn't seeing the field and throwing on time, drifting deep in the pocket again, scrambling and missing guys When he did throw it wasn't very accurate, especially early. As I said before, he wasn't helped by the play calling, not a lot of jet motion and quick slants and crossers to help against the Raiders rush who were lining up wide and crashing hard. We also aren't changing the play at line much. I expect we will see more under center runs, and play action moving forward and more Jet motion when Mecole is back. I still think we will be a tough out for anyone in the Playoffs if we can play 90% clean.

That WR room is SO GOD DAMN BAD, I actually think it is underplayed just how bad it is. There are college team with more talent at the position than we have.
We don't even have a functional NFL passing game because of how bad it is. Several guys are manufactured touch guys, no one can just win on a route, teams play man because no one can win a route.
It's literally a position full of trashcans and we wonder why Mahomes isn't getting it done.
