NFL Live just did a segment on Mahomes today. And it gave me a boner.
Absolutely nothing new is in this clip. It's just NFL Live doing what it has always done in the offseason- it's looking to fill up time on the show by focusing on the stars and any exciting buzz/stories that are out there. Here's why I'm erect: The difference between now and the way it's always been is that until now, we never had an interesting potential star QB on our team. It's always been about our TE or RB. OCCASIONALLY they'd talk about a player or two on our defense if they were really desperate, and that's only if they had exhausted every spare ounce of discussion on the Bradys, Rodgers, Brees, and Mannings of the NFL. Now we've got our own, gents. And now WE'RE getting the time-filler crap that people in waiting rooms watch. That's why this clip is so bonerific. |

"I think we can be one of, if not the best, offenses in the NFL," Mahomes said. "We have a ton of talent everywhere and we’re deep at every position.
Deep at every position except QB. Fingers crossed Pat will stay healthy! Massive talent gap between Mahomes and the backup QB's. |

You draft o-lineman high when you have a QB that either: A) isn't mobile; B) doesn't have a fast release, or C) you don't have the ability to be creative week-to-week with your gameplan and have a QB to execute it. I don't see Mahomes fitting any of these concerns. Look at what Mahomes did with 2nd and 3rd string players at all positions, against starting, top-ranked defenders in freezing temperatures in his first NFL start. Add to that the more glaring needs on the defensive side, and I just don't agree at this time. |

I remember that sinking feeling I had when Pat's preseason was over. I looked at my wife, and let her know this might be the last time we see him playing for another entire year.
I was so ecstatic when I heard he would be playing week 17. This ****ing hype may seem extreme to some, but this dude is our dude. He won't fail because his head is on straight. QB is such a mental game. Mahomes is a gamer. He won't let himself fail. We're about to witness amazing shit as Chiefs fans. I told the pizza man 2 weekends ago that told me he liked my Chiefs banners in my house, he told me he misses a lot of games. I told him whatever you do, don't miss out on this Mahomes era man. I want everyone to see this unfold as a fanbase. |

I personally, have never been more sure about a QB prospect than Mahomes. I liked him a lot college and hoped he'd be a Chief. Leading up to the draft, I fell in love with him. The Chiefs shocked the NFL world and traded up for him and I couldn't be happier.
Then preseason came. He looked better than any Chiefs QB, rookie or vet, than I can remember ever seeing in a preseason. That doesn't say much, but as a rookie that was supposed to be raw?, no...this is when I knew for sure we struck gold. He made throws that you will NEVER see an NFL QB make. Wow. Week 17 rolled around and Mahomes lived up to the hype. His stat line wasn't amazing, but, his decisions, quick thinking, the way he managed the offense, his pocket awareness...and the throws...OMG. Mahomes isn't just going to be good...he's going to be elite...and very soon. Reid and Veech have created this offense for him to succeed about as well as any QB in NFL history. Study behind a QB and learn the offense for a year and amass serious talent around him with a QB friendly offense so he can hit the ground running. I'd be shocked if he doesn't eclipse 4000 yards passing, 30 TDs and a 90+ rating in his first season baring injuries. 2 legit #1 WR's 1 top 2nd year running back best TE in NFL Good line Coaching staff that can make players like AJ Feeley and Kevin Kolb look good. He is going to be the next great one. Trubisky is a joke. Watson is a dance and bomb QB with piss poor short and intermediate accuracy. The 2018 QB class looks pretty garbage. Mahomes and Wentz will take over the NFL for the next decade. Brees, Brady and Rapist will be out of the NFL soon. Matt Ryan is still going to be good. Rodgers will still be great. Dak...overhyped.

For the first time in Chiefs history, the Quarterback is the most talented football player on the team.

Reason for my observation is having watched Mahomes in college, the more receivers he has on the field, the more lethal he becomes. Cantrell didn't play every down at Tech--not the way Kingsbury works. Receivers rotate in and out faster than brothel girls on politicians payday. Cantrell is one of those sleeper receivers that defenses made the mistake of either ignoring or vastly underestimating, and it cost them every single time. Reid is already adjusting the offense around Mahomes' style which is why it would make sense to bring in a receiver in which the chemistry and connection already exists. You put three dangerous receivers out there with Kelce on the line and Hunt in the backfield and what you'll have is an offensive smorgasbord of the likes that KC fans have never before seen. Quote:
