Quote:
On Tuesday’s episode of “The Athletic Football Show,” Nate Tice, a former NFL offensive quality control assistant and former college quarterback, voiced harsh criticism of Mahomes’ teammates.
“It is so sloppy,” Tice said of watching the unit led by coach Andy Reid. “This team led the league in penalties per snap on offense going into last week and I don’t think their numbers are going to change much. This Chiefs skill-position group — receivers, tight ends a little bit because (Travis) Kelce can be a little loose and running backs — is probably the lowest collective football IQ I have ever seen, at least from a contender.”
An issue against the Raiders that irritated Tice was how often the Chiefs’ skill-position players made pre-snap mistakes — whether with their initial alignment, when they were supposed to motion or shift the formation or when one of them needed Mahomes’ assistance on where to line up after receiving the play call.
“That’s my fault,” Reid said of such errors. “I have to make sure that’s right.”

Somebody who has actually watched our games this year. Mahomes is saddled with some absolute clowns and no EB to keep them in line like in past years.
