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!

I am not remotely worried though. Playoffs are the only thing that matters and I will only get worried when he plays like shit in the post season.

While true what I bolded, the weak link is the LT which is the most critical position on the Oline. Not overly concerned as I expect it to improve as the season goes on, but is definitely a position I wish wasn’t a liability at the moment.

[Lombardi] Defenses are dropping 8 into coverage vs Brock Purdy at a 2x higher rate than they do against other QBS, and he's still leading the NFL in passing yards on throws that travel over 10 yards (581 yards). That's a remarkable combo

This is a David Lombardi tweet.

If Brock Purdy can throw it down the field just fine with 8 defenders being dropped, then why isn't Mahomes doing it?

Good question.

The plays are there to be made, we just haven't been doing it.
