Tyler Bray vs Patrick Mahomes II competition for backup
This should be a simple poll. Who do you all think will win the backup job to Alex Smith during training camp and preseason competition? Meaning the one that gets to suit up on game days to trust when Alex Smith gets KO~ed out of a game.
Andy Reid said this is a competition so let them duel it out. Tyler Bray 5th year man being a back up to a backup gives him the edge knowing the system and being around the guys and coaching. He is currently the #2 quarterback. vs the challenger Patrick Mahomes II the #10 pick in the first round after trading up 17 spots and has a lot to learn but has desire to be the starting quarterback sooner than later. This isn't about Alex Smith but who would you trust to go in a game if heaven forbid something happens to our starting quarterback to keep us alive for the playoffs? |

Mahomes should redshirt. They'd be better off bringing in Tyler Palko this year. Mahomes needs to rebuild his mechanics and you can't do that while playing.

I thought about this as the third option but it is what it is. If they both suck I think the Chiefs would bring in another guy if they have too. I just think that the competition is good for the guys to have an insensitive to work for their jobs and worth.

What if you're accurate without those mechanics? Why does your feet placement matter if you're dropping dimes 30 yards downfield? I don't believe mechanics can be fixed. It's muscle memory at this point. Mahomes has enough natural accuracy and arm talent to overcome the lack of traditional mechanics. Sure, they should be honed in an effort to be more consistent, but this idea that his mechanics are so far gone that he HAS to sit? I don't buy it. With that said, i expect to see Mahomes win the #2 job by preseason week 3. |

It took him five years to learn the playbook to call out plays and read defenses. I think Patrick Mahomes II will do much to progress much quicker than that. |

2PM will win the backup job- they are not going to let our future franchise QB miss valuable reps waiting behind a career clipboard holder like Bray. |
