The only way defenses can play against Patrick with any degree of success is to try and contain him.
You know that old saying, "You can't stop him, you can only hope to contain him..." well, it literally applies to Mahomes.
They radically adjusted their approach after his first two years, to take away the deep ball and force him to manage down the field. He adjusted as well, and is now a complete quarterback.
Combine that with a season or two without a legitimate (proven, reliable) deep threat, and then without proven, reliable Tackle play, and this is what you get.
He's made chicken salad from chicken shit, and yeah, he's missed on a handful this season, but he's not broken by any means.
Long story short, he is fine and will be fine.
