I think what we saw that game is what we are going to get... and I am all for that!

To be fair...the reverse field heave to Demetrius Harris who was double covered...resembled a young, reckless QB. Luckily it fell incomplete and he went on to win the game.

Lol did you even watch the game? Harris had like 3 yards on the Broncos player covering him. It was good vision and good decision by Mahomes but just terrible execution by not setting his feet.

Uhh that’s the point dude. There was no need for that kind of play in that situation. No need to go for the win by throwing half the field off your back foot when you need 10 yards to get in FG range with plenty of time.

That’s the wrecklessness that Andy needs to coach out of him.

Alternatively he could have gotten Happy feet and taken a sack. I'd much rather have a QB willing to take risks.

I don't know that he'll ever be as good in the pocket as Rodgers, but I think he can be every bit as good outside the pocket.

I do think he can be as good, or slightly better, in the pocket as Wilson, which is plenty good enough.

I look at of Mahomes as a Randall Cunningham type of a player instead of a Favre.

Randall in his early days was a better athlete than Mahomes. Patty won't be putting up 500-900 rushing yards per season like Randall did.

He's not fast enough to be Randall

Or skinny enough

Or flexible enough

Yes I watched the game. It was a terrible decision and a terrible throw. Not even sure how you can begin to defend that.

You don’t have to defend Patrick. I’m on board. He’s going to make some terrible decisions along the way. Enjoy the ride.

Watch the All 22. It was a great play call, read and decision. Harris had 3 yards on them, AKA, he was wide effing open in the NFL. Mahomes didn't set his feet and under threw it big time. He had time to set his feet. That's the ONLY thing wrong with that entire play.

It was a good decision, but terrible execution. If he sets his feet, that's an easy TD.

Harris was wide open. Just have to remember your fundamentals.

And it is not into double coverage either. I know you didn't say that it was, I am just using your post because of the picture you supplied. Mahomes throws a frozen rope, and the defender at the bottom 20 yard line never gets over to help. Because the ball "sailed", he had time to enter the play late.

The play to Harris was also a free play for anyone calling it a risky throw. Pat even looked for the flag and looked off the safety before throwing that pass.

The most impressive part about Pat is he’s one of the very very few QBs that can beat PERFECT COVERAGE with pinpoint accuracy.

There is literally no way to stop him when he’s rolling.

Well then this whole discussion of it being an unnecessary pass can go out the window.

But the play-by-play doesn't say that.

And it's actually just flat out not true.

Wait, I think I just came up with a decent NICKNAME for Pat.........
