Mahomes is one of the most physically talented quarterbacks I have ever seen. With that being said, I believe that he will struggle becoming an NFL quarterback. He has a mindset that he has to throw deep and it drove Kilff crazy. To those of you who are saying he didn't have any talent around him, this is both true and false as Tech has a good receiving core. I have a friend who is playing for Texas Tech and the main thing that Texas Tech recruits is wide receivers who run a 4.4 40. Heck, Tech had 11 receivers on scholarship last year. So yeah, they are loaded at wide receiver. In the past their offensive line has been good, but last year it was slightly below average. I'm not going to even go into the defense as it is the worst I have ever seen.
Like I said earlier Mahomes is going to struggle. He has all of the tools needed, but he is addicted to the big plays and it will cause plenty of interceptions.
With that being said, I hope he succeeds, and this is coming from a Bronco fan. He is entertaining to watch and I hope his game translates to the NFL as it would be good for Tech.
