Chiefs Patrick Mahomes isn't "broken" you ****ing dorks - Page 28

"broken" "abomination" "Rick Ankiel"

These are all words that people used to describe Patrick ****ing Mahomes tonight. I mean, are you listening to yourselves? Rick ****ING Ankiel?????

Look, I'm not going to pretend like he's been himself all year. He's not seeing the field as well as usual, he's struggling to trust his OL and occasionally scrambling out of clean pockets, he's missing some throws, some of those turnovers have actually been his fault and not just the receivers being unable to hold onto the ****in ball.

But all the wannabe psychologists and family therapists on this site are driving me up a ****ing wall. You don't know what the **** is going on in his head and you don't know what affect his family life has on his play.

What you DO know, based on a 3 season sample size, is that he's the greatest QB through ~50 games in NFL history. You know that he's won multiple comeback playoff games, two AFC titles, and a Super Bowl. You even know (or at least you ****ing should, unless you've been too busy moaning to actually read anything), that by most metrics he's actually been pretty good overall this season. His "turnover worthy" plays are actually DOWN from past years. He's #4 in the league in touchdowns. His TD% is identical to last season and higher that 2019. Before Tennessee, which is easily the biggest outlier of his career including the other "bad" games this season, he was leading one of the most efficient offenses of all time in terms of points per drive — yes, better than 2018. I know it doesn't feel that way because so many guys on this team (including, yes, Patrick himself on a few occasions) can't hold onto the ****ing ball. But that's the ****ing truth.

If he were moping during press conferences or lashing out on social media, I might give a little bit more credence to the narrative that he's moments away from a nervous breakdown. Not very much, but a little bit. But he's not. He's being honest (almost to a fault) about his role in the team's struggles and projecting confidence that he can turn it around. What more can he possibly do to convince some of you losers to hold onto a bit of that confidence yourselves? Does he need to go back in time and miraculously heal Schwartz and Fisher and win that Super Bowl? Should he just commit seppuku at midfield? What do you want??

Patrick Mahomes is not broken. He's slumping. Every QB slumps occasionally. Not every QB calls having the 4th best QBR (64.1) and 6th best EPA (46.3, just above the dreaded Aaron Rodgers) a ****ing slump. Personally, even after 8 underwhelming-to-miserable games and a 4-4 record, I'm gonna give the kid a little more leeway before calling for him to be committed to the god damn psych ward. I think he's earned at least that much.

calm down, man. It's a metaphor to illustrate the fact that you sometimes need to be smart and take what the defense gives you in order to be able to get the shots you want later in the game, and later in the season.

A little more chess and a little less checkers, how's that?

I'd say more like Montana

Sure, but some of these whippersnappers don't actually remember watching Montana play.

Hell, they probably don't remember Favre.

No I think a little more Mahomes will go a lot farther.

**** anything Brady. metaphorically speaking **** Tom Brady.

Rasputin · 11-15-2021, 04:44 AM

Mahomes can do more with less than Tom Brady. Tom Brady has had the luxury of some of the best offensive lines and defenses put together for his career but look what Mahomes can do with Wilie at RT. **** Tom Brady. I want Patrick Mahomes II to play like Patrick Mahomes II that he plays his style of football.

What was more likely, that suddenly forgot how to play quarterback or was it that his completely new offensive line that he was unfamiliar with was allowing more pressure than anyone in the league and that his receivers either weren’t getting open or dropping passes or fumbling the ball when they did? This shouldn’t have been particularly tough, but apparently it was.

And there are still folks complaining about his play last night.. "Mahomes is still too greedy. He got lucky...etc"
Guess they didn't watch any of this games the last 3 years.
Mahomes was back to being Mahomes AND really playing well from the pocket last night on top of it.

I was only concerned as to how long it would take for Mahomes to harness the gunslinger mentality enough to be effective against these schemes, not that he was 'done' or a 'flash in the pan'.

It would appear he's on track now, and there's still time to salvage THIS season, so that's great news.

A little less Favre, a little more Brady.

That's how you do it.

A little less Favre, a little more creepy ass racist pedophile

I was so excited to get my season tickets the first year of Montana. First time in my life I wasn't living paycheck to paycheck. Exciting times. No one will ever convince me that we wouldn't have won the super bowl if Montana doesn't get a concussion in Buffalo.

I'm very hesitant to criticize Mahomes, but there was 1 play I did not like from the Raiders game, and that was the TD to Williams.

Throwing a jump ball to a RB like that prob doesn't work 8/10 times. Williams bailed Pat out of a red zone INT, and he even admitted so in the post game interview.

That said, small critique in otherwise a very patient and matured game by Mr. Mahomes.

I think what made that pass questionable was he about threw a pick to the same spot the play before.

IDK.

Mahomes is smart enough to know Abram is basically LV's Daniel Sorensen at this point.

I think that's a matchup he liked.

Otherwise, yeah, very dumb throw, or he didn't see Abram.

In any case, that's a make up play for shit like the ball bouncing off Kemp's hands for a pick. We deserve it.
