Mahomes did one rep and that was good enough for the coach he did not make him do it again so it looked to me like he did it right for what the coach wanted him to do IMO. Then they went on to other drills. Mostly I'm saying Patrick is getting instructions on what to do after he gets the ball out from under center. They do that in practice you know. Every quarterback gets' those kind of instructions. It was cool to see it like you would see on Hard Knocks. |

Your original analogy still stands firm as a perfect description of what we are dealing with here. Reid and the staff are in the process of developing their QB masterpiece, and that should not be interrupted just yet. When the time is right, Reid will know it. |

I found the press conferences today from Smith and Mahomes to be very telling.... the reporters asked each about what it was like preparing for their first preseason game.
On one side of the spectrum, you had Smith saying this: Quote:
Then, you have Mahomes saying this: Quote:
Those quotes, to me, really sound like two guys who think that the best thing for Mahomes (or any young QB) is to come in and learn with low expectations. Smith certainly sounds like a guy who is envious of Mahomes' current situation. |

What do people in here think. Should a QB who is drafted out of college sit at least a year and learn in the NFL

You shouldn't throw someone out there that is totally lost. But if Reid feels like he has the hang of it then he should play. He's probably going to learn more playing than he would sitting on the sideline. |

I do NOT buy into the fact that EVERY quarterback coming from college is best suited to sit for a season....which is why your question will NOT get a lot of simple yes or no responses. |

Since it seems more rare for a high 1st rd QB to sit for year, I would like to see the success rate of that process being completed and uninterrupted. |

Mahomes will start in 2018.. for better or worse. Not even worried about great success in 2018... but I'd like him to develop into a strong starter soon after. |

The good news is, look at how fast he is picking this shit up. I will absolutely, 1000% guarantee you that Mahomes starts for this club in 2018. Anyone trying to hold back the reaper from Smith's sad ass is living in a complete ****ing fantasy world. Also, I take great pleasure in watching at least ONE known moron eat his own shit in this affair when he argued like a loud, screaming, muppet-bitch for two years prior to this draft that, "TEAMS WHO TAKE 1ST ROUND QB'S DON'T SIT THEM FOR A YEAR". Stupid ****. Oh well, what's new at CP amirite?! Mahomes in 2018; bank it. Approved. |
