Hear me out on this:

Thats an absolute crap excuse (Mahomes is farther along in his progression than expected- which he is)

This is the NFL- Pitt wasn't an SEC team hosting a Jerry Falwell University team- its NFL!

 

You have to be prepared for an NFL quarterback. Nothing in pre-season showed that there was anything wrong with Mahomes OR that he was not an NFL caliber starting back. Personally I thought he would be as good as Watson was last year, although he looks to have regressed. Thats not to imply that Mahomes will also! 

Point is- he carved a pretty good LAC pass defense last week- Steelers should have been better prepared period- regardless of who they are playing.

yea that was more of a saving face quote then anything...

actually Grunny kinda just disagreed with you on 810..said  the Steelers saw what Alex would usually do on film and thought PMII was going to do the same and pretty much said "the Steelers covered "their view" of Option#1 and Option #2 on every play and by some stretch, Mahomes picked option #3 each and every time.

 

It doesn't matter who the defense thinks option #1 and option #2 are, someone will be open and Patrick will find him.  No defense can cover all of these weapons, and Mahomes has incredible vision.
