*****The Patrick Mahomes Thread*****
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! Last edited by Dante84; 05-17-2017 at 09:40 AM.. |

Yep, must be a pretty nice relief for him to know that he's not carrying an entire team on his shoulders anymore. He now has a legit NFL defense backing him up and he has a very good veteran QB to carry the offensive load for at least the next year while Pat tries to learn behind the scenes.

He's got a good enough OL, playmakers on O, an elite defense, and the best special teams in the NFL. A great coaching staff with a Top 3 GM to boot. I'm sure he's damn giddy at his situation.

Interviews from Pat and Andy today below. Some good stuff. Sounds like his work ethic and attention to detail are shining early on. If he has the 'drive' that he seems to have, it should go a long way.

Well this is a big deal because the Chiefs players will get flustrated if our offense keeps stalling behind Alex Smith and they punt all the time. If they see Patrick Mahomes II doing well in practice and think he will give them a better shot then they will add pressure to the situation because they don't want a repeat of last year. If you can't score more than 20 points in a playoff game you are dead in the water and these guys know that.

The Packers went 10-6 before drafting Rodgers. Favre was 35 and had blown their playoff game with 4 picks. Dorsey is repeating history. |

But really, he is very likable. But, of course we are going to say that. |

Now we just have to see if he can learn how to make good decisions against NFL defenses. If he is able to handle the mental side of the game, the sky is the limit for him...he has superstar personality and physical talent. |

I mean, if you just look at pure statistics on a year-to-year basis, I think Mahomes can do much better than Ben generally has if he becomes a great QB like we hope he will. |
