I had ridiculously expectations for Pat. Sometimes I even wondered if my expectations, predicated on being perpetually disappointed by the Chiefs in January since the Elway era were unfair for him. He's gone on to exceed every single one.

I readily admit that I'm not a huge draft guy, and I barely knew the name Mahomes prior to our pick. But when I got the alert on my phone that told me the Chiefs had traded up through half of the first round to grab a QB, you bet your ass I was excited. When Andy Reid gets that excited about a QB, you sit up and pay attention.
