You shouldn't be surprised when Bronco fans have a giggle when they find out Mahomes is throwing a pick party every day in practice.

He beat a bunch of starters who played roughly 50% the game. So yeah, it was more impressive than you want to admit, and less impressive than beating the whole starting defense for an entire game. He looked great in his first start, made some stunning throws, and did it with no starters except a RT.
Also to try and act like multiple great QBs don't throw picks in training camp is you being either super disingenuous, or naive. Its common for QBs to take chances in training camp that they wouldn't normally take. Pat said himself how he could have easily run for a TD in the redzone, but decided to try a throw. He's out there honing his craft and trying out things that he wouldn't normally do.
