If we have learned anything about quarterbacks through the years, it is that arm strength might be the least important factor. Look at what they thought about Watson? He doesn't look like he's lacking arm strength to me. Manning, Brady, Brees, Rivers, etc. none of these guys had amazing arm strength.
Andy is doing the me right thing here and teaching this kid the mental part of the game. All Mahomes was in preseason was arm strength. We knew that when he threw several passes that should've been picked off.
Next year Pat will have a significantly better feel and understanding of the game and this offense.

Mahomes is so much more than arm strength
He showed that in preseason.
Accuracy, leadership, escapability, feel for the game, decision making, intelligence. Mahomes has it
If we just wanted "arm strength" we would have stuck with Bray
