Lamar sat alone pouting. He went out and just did the same sandlot antics over and over. That is all he knows. Either he can't be coached up at this point or thinks he doesn't need it. |

When he scored the first TD, he went nuts like It was the score to take the lead. That fire is infectious. The Arrowhead crowd certainly responded. He never lost his cool, never got pissed off, even when his teamates were BADLY letting him down. Never pointed any fingers, just took on the challenge and he rallied the troops and blew the ****ing doors off the Texans with 41 unanswered points. Lamar cant hold Mahomes' jock. |

The rest of the team elevates their play because of Mahomes.
It's the same effect Montana had on this team. They know if they set him up with a fumble on one possession, he can go 90 on the next. When you believe with your whole heart, mind, body and soul, you play harder and more focused. Period. |

The 'sandlot antics' aren't going to work at the NFL level. Do you think you can teach a guy to play QB all of a sudden? No. When has that ever happened? Do guys like this ultimately fail in the NFL? Ask Kaepernick, RG3, Vick, etc. (And there are plenty of other guys who didn't even enjoy the modicum of success that those guys did.) Bottle them up, make them beat you with their arm. You'll be fine. You need a real passer in the NFL, unless you are just interested in selling jerseys and beating the bottom half of the league. |

43 TD's is still far less than Mahomes and we won't even talk about passing yards between the two. |

But I do agree with the overall tenor of the argument for the most part. You can win with those guys and win in the playoffs as we've seen. But it's tough, you need breaks and at some point, you've gotta win from the pocket. |

Lamar isn't Mahomes, but that's ok. He's still a young exciting player. People kind of forget, he's only 23. He's got time to develop.
I don't think guys can develop accuracy, I think it's an either or, but we will see how it goes for him. He won't ever be Drew Brees, but if he can get it up a tick or so, he'll be fine. It's ok that he's not Mahomes. He seems like a good kid and wants to improve. |

There's a huge difference between "a passer who needs to improve" and "an athlete playing QB"

Lamar is greased lightning back there- he can beat you with a good pass a few times a game. They are not even the same. |
