*****The Patrick Mahomes Thread*****
IT ****ING HAPPENED
OP UPDATE: Because of all the interest in this thread, I've place all of the video content of Patrick Mahomes II's college career, and draft day goodness into a single post that can be found here. Enjoy! Last edited by Dante84; 05-17-2017 at 09:40 AM.. |

The Athletic wrote their annual piece about quarterback Tiers. Mahomes is a unanimous Tier 1, 1 of only 4 players to have that honor. While discussing Mahomes, the articles notes that in 2019, the Chiefs were 5-1 in games when they were down at least 10 points. The rest of the NFL was 32-209-1. That averages out to 1 win for every 6 losses for other teams. So KC is 5-1 when the rest of the NFL would average to 1-6.
Any player that is that good is truly spectacular. Having that player on KC after a lifetime of frustration and futility is awesome! |

Note: I'm fine if Mahomes wasn't your pre-draft #1 QB in 2017. If you preferred Deshaun at the time, whatever. But when we pulled the trigger and traded up to get our first home-grown franchise QB, you damn well better have been at the very least hopeful and excited. |

I had ridiculous 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. Last edited by Chiefspants; 07-29-2020 at 09:54 AM.. |

Reposting from the Royals thread, looks like Pat is starting to spend some legit "rich guy" money...

I think the host I was listening to (local Denver dude) must have been quoting Gruden then.

Oh, sorry. I was just thinking of the ESPN coverage before the Chiefs pick came in and Gruden was so pumped for Andy that he did a whole thing about Mahomes and how it could go.

I remember they were definitely local because they were legitimately upset Denver didn't end up with McCaffrey.

I'm not a big dig deep draft guy either. Most of these guys are lucky if they turn into JAG's. But, Mahomes was on my radar because of my good friend Shaggy Shane. He was all over Mahomes. This is the generational QB we need etc.
