He's left probably 6-8 scores on the field this year through 10 games. That's...a problem. To say nothing of the 1st downs he's left out there.
He's just been REALLY ordinary. And you continue to point to the handful of good plays he makes and you have me convinced you're just not watching a lot of football outside of KC.
A BUNCH of QBs make those plays now. Half the league can probably put together a 10-15 play reel that is as good as what Mahomes has this year. He fundamentally changed the way the position is played - and suddenly he's not playing it that way.

People want to point the finger at Nagy and the playcalling but the fact is the personnel has been changing, the OL has struggled recently and the weapons aren’t there.
One of the biggest problems I’m seeing on offense is RB. We never replaced McKinnon. He was such a dynamic receiving weapon for us. 9 receiving TD’s in 2022 was a big reason we were successful. 4 last year in only 12 games.
Guess how many receiving TD’s we have from a RB this year? 1. That’s literally it. It’s non-existent. Perine is the closest thing we have to McKinnon.
They need to start having Mecole line up in the backfield and get some designed passes to the flat to stretch the LB’s and utilize speed there.
Toney was awful but he did provide that piece of the offense to us at times last year. We just don’t have it right now and it’s a major major problem.
