The verdict on the Kansas City Chiefs drafting Patrick Mahomes
Opponent: Oklahoma
- I LIKE Sadler!
- Mahomes should NEVER throw across his body
- Did he just throw a pass left-handed?
- Touch on deep throws is questionable
- Throws lack velocity due to poor mechanics
- Makes too manym near-pick throws
- Retreats in pocket waaaaaay too much
- Keeps his eyes downfield when trying to make a play
- Fantastic job of selling read-option
- Questionable accuracy on deep balls
- Can be baited into picks by a defender
- Did I say how much I like Coutee?
- Ball placement is suspect
- Has tough time putting the ball around the numbers
- Can improvise when necessary
- DIME to Davis for a TD
- I LIKE Giles!
- This many throws in the NFL would lead to a ton of turnovers
- Mahomes has trouble sliding when he scrambles (doesn’t look smooth)
- Has skill players who make a TON of plays for him
Opponent: Baylor
- Throws into a group of defenders a bunch
- Retreating into the pocket will be a BIG problem at the next level
- KEKE COUTEE! Great adjustment on the TD
- FANTASTIC TD catch (Dylan Cantrell)
- Mahomes has some great weapons who contribute lots of chunk plays
- Quan Shorts! TD! Wow!
- KEKE COUTEE! (Expletive redacted) He’d be GREAT in Kansas City
- Giles BUCKLED a defender with a move in the open field WOOOOOOOOOW
- Weapons showed him up in this game!
- Intentional grounding was ATROCIOUS
- Coutee concentration on a tipped ball!
- Threw a dime on a would-be TD to Wesley
- Great back-shoulder throw on Cantrell TD
- Coutee is a FREAK!
- Wesley with TWO end zone drops?
- Third Quarter scramble was IMPRESSIVE
- Coutee FROZE a man with a move to earn more yards
- Touch on fades and corners? YUCK!
