Mahomes is gonna get hit some. We need to accept that. So does he.
He left 15 points on the field yesterday. At least. And yes, he was responsible for one very good play to Perine (and had another couple solid ones in there as well) but like I said, that's just the NFL game now. If your QB can't make a handful of those plays every game, your QB needs to be replaced.

He was bad yesterday. The only thing I’ll add is that he still stood tall and delivered a game winning ball to DHop with Engage 8 coming in hot from the Broncos D.
Judging from how opposing QB’s have handled Spags’ blitzing this year, I’m confident that only Burrow and Baker make that throw from the QB’s we’ve faced, and I’d gamble only <10 QB’s in the NFL stand and deliver that throw in that situation.
Patrick, for all his warts this year, has still delivered those throws to give us the win. I’m confident that play results in a punt if Alex is under center, and I’ll start to get concerned if Patrick starts biffing those game swinging plays like he did on and off in 2021 (culminating in perhaps his worst two chokes of the year to end regulation in the first AFCCG against the Bengals).
