From a baseball standpoint, it's similar to why I've always argued that 2b is every bit as difficult to play as SS. And in fact, if you have the athletic ability to play SS, it's actually much easier than 2b. Once a play is in front of you, everything is pretty simple. You get that momentum going downhill and can just essentially throw a dart, you can use your forward momentum to do most of the work and just a nice easy toss at 70% effort still comes out more than hard enough. And when you're not at max effort, you're more precise with your accuracy. That's why I hate 2b - things are sideways. Here, Mahomes dekes the defender, opens a lane to get himself downhill and just makes the easiest little toss possible. The throw itself was remarkably precise but actually a little easier than it seems. |

Mahomes was at nothing approaching max effort there. It was just barely more than a flip for him. |

The kid you see playing in '18 might as well not be the same quarterback as the guy we have under center today. He's a COMPLETELY different animal. He's just smarter and more in control. He does it differently now because he's just better than he once was. |

Good for him. He's made some decent money too. Hopefully the Chiefs are not in a spot where they need to go shopping practice squads for starters any time soon.

Mahomes seemed to be low on quite a few balls. I’m guessing that was a result of some fatigue setting in from all the running and harassment and huge number pass attempts he took.

Mahomes should get his 2nd MVP this year. He has been playing one top defense after another and shredding them. I think this might be the best he has ever played. It is beyond comprehension.
