I'm actually more intrigued by what he can do over the middle than I am by what he can do downfield.
Those 12-15 yard hitches and inside digs are plays that the timing has to be absolutely perfect on with Smith. Any kind of hiccup can **** those up.
Meanwhile Mahomes has the firepower to simply throw it past a DB before he can react.
So Conley, for instance, doesn't need as much separation because the ball can get on him so quickly that he's just open even when he doesn't appear to be. Kelce can get it a little quicker and use his YAC skills just that much better.
This will do more than just make the streaks and screens work better; it will make the middle of the field that much easier to operate in and that much more productive.
