*****The Patrick Mahomes Thread*****
IT ****ING HAPPENED
OP UPDATE: Because of all the interest in this thread, I've place all of the video content of Patrick Mahomes II's college career, and draft day goodness into a single post that can be found here. Enjoy! Last edited by Dante84; 05-17-2017 at 09:40 AM.. |

I just like that we're already setting the bar at Rodgers and Brees for Mahomes. |

And look, if Andy could build up Kevin ****ing Kolb and trade him for a second rounder(!), I have every confidence that he will get Pat's completion percentage into the mid 60's as an average.

Yeah, I don't think I can buy the "not enough people are talking about that throw" line - EVERYONE is talking about that throw. Holy shit it was magnificent. That throw and the dart to Watkins to set up the TD (to DAT?) were his two best pure throws of the game. Absolutely remarkable throws. The slant may have been his most impressive play because of the pressure, the odd throwing angle and the remarkable precision/velocity, but when you're talking just ungodly ball placement, the throw to Sherman is pretty much impossible to beat.

I watched a video after the game yesterday that was talking about that play where Hill was chasing down Addae. Basically DAT's TD should have been Tyreek's TD but Hill had just ran after Addae and the Chiefs wanted to give him a breather after that.

Pat was ****ing GEEKED. That's why I say he was falling into some bad TT habits; guy was inching towards balls to the walls, hair on fire, playground football. We'll love that when we're down 13 in the 4th but there are times that needs to be controlled somewhat and I think Reid did a nice job of slowing things up a bit for him, getting his feet back under him and calming him down. He played far more composed in the 2nd half and I think those 2 drives were a big part of that.

Then came the rushing drive after LA scored to bring it to 14-12. That was almost all rushing and designed short passes to calm shit down and get a FG on the board. It was really great game management from Andy that nobody will give him credit for because nobody ever does when he does something smart. If we go out there and whip it around 3 times for a 3rd straight three and out then SD gets a FG to take the lead, things look a lot different going into halftime. That drive was enormous because it evened Pat's pulse a bit, IMO.

That slant to Hill made my jaw drop..it was just so....kickass.
That touch on the sausage ball was also a thing of beauty. (play worked in practice) and the crazy part? He's only going to get better. |

To act like he didn't make mistakes yesterday is to do a disservice to how good he CAN be. That was a heck of a game yesterday, but it's about 60% of what Mahomes can be. Now at his best, a lot of that improvement will go to propping up the roster chaff we'll inevitably have to surround him with when he's making insane amounts of money and gobbling up our cap space, but for the next 3 years as he improves and doesn't cost much, it's gonna be a hell of a ride.
