Legend of AC 269 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Guy has destroyed the entire league this year. Here’s hoping Mahomes is anywhere near as good! As Chiefs fans we’ll always be left wondering. Hope this isn’t 83’ all over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCSLC2008 605 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 He played really well absent a few plays. He averaged 13.4 yards per attempt. Even if you were to take away the 72 yard touchdown and 59 yard touchdown, he would still have averaged 8.1 yards per attempt. Obviously, you don't take those away, I'm just saying a lot of times people's numbers are high because of two throws. Those plays definitely helped, but even without them, he did get a pretty high yards per attempt. I'm sure they want to work on his two interceptions. The third one was obviously in desperation and so I don't blame him for that. http://www.espn.com/nfl/boxscore?gameId=400951729 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisChief-Maker 135 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Guy has destroyed the entire league this year. Here’s hoping Mahomes is anywhere near as good! As Chiefs fans we’ll always be left wondering. Hope this isn’t 83’ all over. What happened in 83? Oh, and yes I've been watching this Texans game and although Watson was intercepted three times, he was very impressive tbh. Watson is having the time of his life but as we all know folks are gonna be watching these guys closely and soon enough they will find a weakness somewhere in his game. Pat will be under pressure next season but we just have to trust in the process and hope that he can live up to the hype. Being compared to Rodgers is a tough thing to live up to. But hearing what Kelce had to say about him the other day has given me confidence that Pat is doing the right things behind the scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mloe68 1,521 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Meh. I loved Watson in that draft. But You've got to win more than 3 games before I'd call anyone a superstar. And I thought you would at least wait for Mahomes first INT to start suggesting he's a bust. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhataLerror 370 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Three interceptions, and one a pick-six. One of his four touchdowns came on a screen pass, and we all know how Chiefs fans feel about screen passes [when they're thrown by Alex Smith]. It's a little early to be calling "superstar".

When he figures out how to read NFL defenses he’s going to be scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t post this to slight Mahomes at all; I’m super pumped to see him play and excited for his talent. But, we traded up and took Mahomes when a lot of folks thought it was going to be Watson. It will be interesting to see how these two guys progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he figures out how to read NFL defenses he’s going to be scary. I know most people thought the exact same thing about RGIii as a rookie too. I like the kid, always have. We will see. Gonna take more time than this and better than a 3-4 record for me to personally give him superstar status. What really does piss md off is that I had to watch ugly Cowboys-Redskins game instead of that thriller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps, but it’s a team game, and that Houston defense couldn’t stop anything today. Watson most TDs ever through 7 games as a rookie - that’s impressive no matter his record.

RGIII had over 4,000 yards of offense, 27 TDs, completed 65 percent of his passes and only threw 5 picks while leading a team to a 10-6 record as a rookie. I'll say this though. Watson looks like his success he had at Clemson translates well to the NFL. In the end Mahomes has by far the better arm and will be better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't get extra credit just because he's on the Chiefs' roster and has a rocket arm. Plenty of people have rocket arms and never do anything with them.

BroncoStud 3,253 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Watson is good, really really good. Give him a few years of learning NFL schemes and he will be a superstar. Right now he's a rookie who's playing incredible football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his reasoning hasn't changed, no wonder he likes Watson: He likes gunslingers for gunslinging's sake. Watson's a nice find in Fantasy Football. We know that.

DefensiveMan 758 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 This is Chiefs Talk boys. He threw 3 picks BTW one for a pick 6. Not quite sold on playing a shootout every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sith13 1,746 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Watson sure has been a very nice surprise but so far he seems to be a better fantasy QB than he's a real starter. Obviously he's still learning and probably will be even better in the future but ever since RG3 I'm skeptical about any rookie QB. Even though coaches are supposed to be professionals they don't always take rookies seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't get extra credit just because he's on the Chiefs' roster and has a rocket arm. Plenty of people have rocket arms and never do anything with them. No doubt Mahomes hasn't earned anything yet although a big part of this deal is how he handles himself in pratcice and the film room. And I really trust Andy Reid when it comes to evaluating and developing QBs. He won't go with Pat next year if he didn't think he could win with him. So we will see. I'm very optimistic though we've drafted an elite level talent and put him in a very good situation to succeed. Same for Watson who was by far the most experienced QB at the top of this draft and went to a team loaded with talent and especially so at WR.

Legend of AC 269 Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 Maybe superstar is a bit premature. Rookie phenom is probably more appropriate. Watson’s well on his way though, and anyone who watched that game yesterday could see why. Guy looks special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
