Thanks! And thoughts on the final draft grade?

If we can also acknowledge that based on those same stats, PM was the 2nd worst QB in the entire NFL in creating his own pressure. Nix was the only guy in the league who was responsible for a larger percentage of the pressures against than Mahomes.

Nix was a rookie with a steady OL so it stands to reason that he'd be responsible for a fairly high percentage of the pressures against him.

PM had a pretty serious issue at LT and has a ton of experience at this point.

An average OT can make things easier for him, yes. But he did a lot to make things harder for himself last year and he absolutely must improve in that regard. Not his OL, not his weapons - HIM.

Yeah I agree here. Would you say the OL issues were a part of this issue? It feels like bailing pockets and issues with the deep ball were in part bc of the LT getting him knocked to the ground over and over again.

As the year went on it looked like he was seeing ghosts and his footwork/technique was sped up leading misses downfield.

Feels like it’s a sum of all of those issues compounding on each other along with horrifically slow weapons outside of Worthy for 90% of the season.
