Mahomes' ability to attack every square inch of the field from every other square inch is the difference in the physical aspect of his play.
What will make him great is his vision and intelligence (ability to read defenses, identify the preferred matchup, etc.).
There's another aspect of his game we haven't see much of yet, however. That's his ability to freelance and adlib when the play breaks down.
I don't think Mahomes has a weakness to his game. All he needs is experience to achieve unheard-of potential. And he has the QB Whisperer to help him get there.

One of the talking heads said he was 4 for 4 from the Red Zone. I'd have to look again, seemed like it was more than 2 TDs from further away. Either way, the point is clear, he's deadly from virtually anywhere on the field.
