xen 1,010,220 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 It's the first week of camp and Andy has told him to not hesitate and let it fly. Andy wants him to see what he can get away with in camp and preseason. So anybody worrying about int's at this stage, knowing that, needs to put their big girl panties on and calm down.

Plus consider Andy is going to pull the reigns off a guy who can make big plays that our last QB could not. We are going from the definition of conservative QB to the polar opposite on the spectrum. It's really not the difficult to understand. The days of losing playoff games because our QB ran scared the entire second half is over. But in the short term we are likely going to have to make regular season sacrifices to get there. Sure worked out well for the Colts and Packers. I think we've got that caliber of talent. Im gonna enjoy the ride, training camp INTs and all. I’m just playing devils advocate here. I think we all might be in for some “sticker shock” with Mahomes this year, which to some extent should be expected. The key is that he learn from his mistakes.

Chiefmanzada 466 Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I hope he throws more. He needs to learn to not get pass happy, be poised at all times as a QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh progress is ugly. He went 18 for 20 on monday. He's also dropping bombs all over the field like a boss. Frankly I'm not the least bit concerned. He's gonna throw int's this year. Just get used to the idea. I could care less about other qb's and I'm not the least bit concerned someone might call me a homer. Fuck em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an Offense install. They are literally testing out what works and does not for basically an entire playbook. Now if he's constantly botching routine throws like Josh Allen, I'd be very concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this is true. I don't follow ANY team's training camp other than our own. Bare minimum some other team's QB would have to look bad in preseason before I would talk trash, and I would probably wait until the regular season.

Heard comments today on the radio that they had never seen a Chiefs training camp where we air it out this much. I’ll be ugly at times as with one of the INTs today where Mahomes admitted the play he called he thought was something different. So none of the WRs went we he thought they would. That type of stuffs gonna happen. But it’s gonna be fun knowing our guy can push the ball to every level and make big plays happen at any time. I’m excited.

That Mahomes isn’t going to be a good QB based on what he’s doing as a 22 year old on August 1st. Because that’s just pure stupidity. Or Devils Advocate that there are going to be growing pains associated with developing a 22 year old. Because I doubt anyone would argue that point with you to begin with.

Devils advocate that maybe Mahomes isn’t going to be the superstar he’s being anointed as. But I guess that’s even silly to suggest because Mahomes is the next Aaron Rodgers.

Adamixoye 604 Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 What we saw on the field in the Denver game, even with some starters sitting on both sides, still carries 100x as much weight as anything happening in camp right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you probably see that when some people say that he's going to be Aaron Rodgers, that doesn't exactly equate to he's going to be Aaron Rodgers his first year starting.

I just prefer to try to look at things objectively. Yes, from everything we’ve heard he’s the real deal, but the fact that he’s throwing 2 ints per day is somewhat concerning. I understand that it’s training camp, but at what point should we expect improvement? Did we hear this about other recent young QBs such as Carson Wentz or Deshaun Watson? No, so it isn’t solely attributable to him being a young QB. I guess we’ll find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And unless you’ve been in Antarctica for the past 9 months, the media collaborate has elevated Mahomes to surefire superstar based on one meaningless game.
