So, something that stood out on a re-watch is the difference in how Mahomes stayed calm in the pocket, stood in there and seemed unworried about the pass rush, versus how, during the regular season, he seemed uncomfortable and ready to move and come off receivers at the slightest pressure.
Other than knowing they edge rushers who were coming off the couch, I can't explain the difference.
But, if he keeps that calmness in the pocket for the rest of the playoffs, [insert Macho Man Randy Savage GIF] Ohhhhhh Yeaahhhhhhhh.
