Legend of AC 269 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 better now than later True, but if he’s doing it now he’ll likely do it come Sunday. He might chuck 20+ this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dksww 484 Posted July 29, 2018 Author Share Posted July 29, 2018 True, but if he’s doing it now he’ll likely do it come Sunday. He might chuck 20+ this year! That's not true at all. I'm not making excuses and high INT total is possible this year, but this is Training Camp. None of it matters. This is where you try throws you may never try in a game to see what you can get away with or not. That's why it's called Training Camp. You gotta love the negative nancy fans and media: Mahomes throws a ton of picks in practice, it matters. Mahomes never throws a pick and countless TDs, doesn't matter, its only training camp. It's the same thing year and year out with fans and media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xen 1,010,220 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 True, but if he’s doing it now he’ll likely do it come Sunday. He might chuck 20+ this year!Pay attention. Andy Reid already said he has directed Mahomes to let it fly in camp to learn what he can get away with and what he can't. It's called training. Weird, i know. I mean, training? In training camp? Btw he also had a 63% comp rate in full team practice and threw multiple amazing passes. But you know, why look at the big picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You watch, if Mahomes starts chucking a bunch a picks when it counts, people will say he’s a bust and that we shouldn’t have traded Alex. I will say that it’s a valid concern whether training camp or not. If it shows up in preseason games then it’s likely to occur in the regular season.

We have undoubtedly been spoiled by Alex and his 5-7 ints per year. I’ll take the immense upside from Mahomes in exchange for some more picks!

robgar 1,046 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 funny I couldnt come up with statistics for how many intereceptions Alex through in training camp last year. or the year before that, or ever for that matter... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll take the immense upside from Mahomes in exchange for some more picks! Any day of the week. Honestly though i don't even care about picks in TC or preseason. He needs to be pushing the envelope to see what he can do now. Good thing Andy understands this. Even in the regular season, at least this year, i don't think it matters. There's no substitute for live game action as a teacher. Remember, Peyton Manning led the league with, like, 28 int's his first year starting. I don't expect Mahomes will do that but it will be a mixed bag this year as he learns. If people freak out, well, fans gonna fan, but doesn't mean we should listen to them.

Chiefsfan1963 1,101 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 The smart fans will have patience. Are there any left? I mean I haven't seen too many fans that became fans in the ought (00) era who were truly patient. I believe their patience extends to a few game losing streak.

Mahomes didn't even throw a ton of picks at TT so I'm not sure why there's this huge concern he's the type of QB that throws a ton of picks. Dicking around in training camp throwing picks is where you learn not to throw them in the games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefsfan1963 1,101 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 What's funny about training camp is if a QB throws some picks then he is scrutinized. If he doesn't then the defense is scrutinized for not makingany ints. It's a no win situation for some fans. Training camp is like preseason picks or rankings, nobody really knows anything.

If people freak out, well, fans gonna fan, but doesn't mean we should listen to them. What you say makes sense, but there's also the theory that one plays like one practices. We may have to live through some bad moments until Mahomes gets more NFL experience and a better O-line. Some fans seem to expect him to come out this season at 100% and it just doesn't work that quickly. Calichief 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way developing your own elite franchise QB isn’t for the faint of heart or certainly bandwagon fan. It’s people that recognize realistic ceiling for him and franchise that are most excited.

Ideally you want to see a good camp battle and it seems we are getting exactly that. Looks promising. A lot of years either Offense or Defensive dominating performances.

VERY true. What I know about today’s practice was that it was raining. Gotta believe that always favors defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
