I seems to me that most of the PI’s where bc the defenders still don’t look for the ball.  That and the ball being under thrown and basically forcing the receiver to come back into the defender. 

it certainly worked for Burrows and Co

It was really one rookie, who is still learning under fire.  That said, its the NFL and Spags better be ready for that in the playoffs.

If a rookie get torched once, count on Cinci's, & Buffalo to just keep pouring it on.

His field awareness and body control is next level.

Spags had Snead shadowing Metcalf all game on Saturday.  Maybe that's a new trend and he'll use it against Chase with McDuffie on Higgins.  Watson and Williams are okay for rookies, but rookies get penalties and make mistakes.  Clark and Karlaftis are playing better the past few games and maybe that little extra pressure will mean one or two fewer completions in a game.  That would have been enough for the Chiefs to win against both Cincy and the Bills earlier this season.

That would be great. Because whatever else he's tried hasn't been working.

It just amazes me how he seems to know within 1/4 inch of where the LOS and the first down marker is when he is running forward and looking for his receiver. He seems to never miss. How does he do that?! We'll never see another Chiefs QB like this.

Also for those of you who have played baseball know that Mahomes incorporates that into his throws and body movements. Some of his throws look like a SS who crosses over the bag on balls up the middle and almost throws backward to first while in the air. These days kids start a sport at 8u and never play another sport competitively. I'm a big proponent of playing 2 or 3 sports.

Most pro footballers are 2-3 sport athletes

you'd be surprised how many offensive and defensive lineman were damned good basketball players

Yeah.  I know a lot of his unusual skills come from being a shortstop.

"Patrick Mahomes is going to f*cking levitate" I like how he points out that the other 31 teams have to realize how fun it is for us, as Chiefs fans, to watch him. "Chiefs fans know, they've been through some hard times"

OBJ didn't allow a single pressure vs. Seattle. Encouraging.

Since I senu-defended Clark this week, I might as well go all in and do the same with OBJ.  It's likely that he was hampered by injury earlier in the season and of course, he missed most of the off season program and part of TC.  That's not to say he should break the bank this winter, but he's not the failure that many here like to make him.  JMHO

There's a reason he was voted All Pro.

Yep, but lets see how he does against better competition in the playoffs.  It would be a real plus if the Chiefs had to replace only one OT this winter and could concentrate their cap space on the D.

Sorry I have not posted  got back from Misery on Friday and it took this long to feel my hands again. Holy SHIT it was cold but well worth it. Had fun with the kids and chalk it up to a great memory. If you will excuse me I think I have some road salt in my crack.
