Go watch Rodgers and see what people say. Dude fires balls into double coverage all the damn time but gets away with it bc it's hard as **** to intercept a ball thrown with that much velocity.
Mahomes throws it the same way. |

And if Mahomes doesnt start in 2018, Tigger can choose my avatar for the year You dont have to be Vince Lombardi to see the stars aligning just right on this one, it goes beyond mere hope into the realm of... luck is preparation, talent and leadership meeting opportunity Reid - Holmgren Mahomes - Favre Hunt - Edgar Bennett Kelce - Mark Chmura Maclin or ? - Antonio Freeman Jones - Reggie White Berry - LeRoy Butler Peters - Al Harris We're about to recreate that kind of magic, Lambeau South |

I like Jones but he is not even in Reggie's zip code. White is the best I have ever seen play with DT a close second. White might be the best defensive player of all time. If Jones could have half the career he did, we will all be very happy. Same with Mahomes. The Chiefs have a huge advantage over everyone else on that list. |

I can just feel it, its right there... the Kansas City Chiefs have all the makings of dynasty in the making The way John Dorsey builds a team continues to bring to mind the great franchises of modern times... Green Bay, Pittsburgh, New England With this wildly talented new QB, the right coach to guide him, and Dorseys continued ability to see the big picture... the sky is the limit |

Dorsey amazes me because he decides what the team needs at a certain spot and then finds the best player to fit that very specific need. He does not listen to any hype. Look at our picks this year. He is taking guys they think can be coached up, put in a winning enviroment, with All Pro vets to tutor them- and hopefully end up with a sack full of diamonds out of coal. He is constantly looking to upgrade the talent accross the board. Look at the crop of Undrafted players he brought in. I would not be surprised if at least 3 make the team, with others landing on the practice squad. It is like we got back any picks used to trade up. Exciting times to be a Chiefs fan for sure!! |

Here's another great podcast about Mahomes, fellas. Take 30 minutes out of your time and give it a listen. In this pod, Seth Keysor puts to bed the theory that Mahomes takes any longer than 1 year to start, and also explains why his perceived flaws are greatly overanalyzed. He's been a huge fan of 2PM since long before the draft, like many on here.

So just realized with this regimes successful history in the regular season + Alex's history indicates there's more of a chance we see Mr. Mahomes in 2017.

Listening at the moment, but Ryan Tracy starts off all wrong talking about how Mahomes footwork and mechanics will need to be addressed
Even Favre himself talked about it in Kissels interview that Boss Chief posted... to the point, Reid isnt going to be out to 'fix' either of those things When a player has the abilities that Mahomes does, good coaches dont worry about those two things, they dont want to start an entirely new learning curve by fixing things that arent really broken If they can execute the play with crazy footwork and mechanics, they can execute the play No one ever stopped, or even tried/tries to stop Favre or Rodgers from throwing from unorthodox platforms that would destroy lesser talents... across the body to the other side of the field, off the back foot, sidearm etc If they can make the throw, they can make it When Mahomes has a command of the verbiage, and mostly knows when to check down to live another day... thats when he starts Guarantee Reid doesnt give a damn about mechanics, only decision making and playbook knowledge |

If we're talking upside, I'd go like this...
Mahomes ... Rodgers Hunt .... Emmitt Hill .... Antonio Brown Kelce ... Gonzales Peters ...Deion Jones ... Bruce Smith Houston ... Kevin Greene Mitchell ... Hasty Logan ... Saleamua Berry ... Reed/Dawkins |
