It’s gotta be extremely difficult to live up to the hype every week. Good thing the media is onto slobbering over Herbert and Allen now. Maybe it’ll allow Pat to get back on track.

One other thing; the flashy crap like no-look passes needs to go. Mahomes needs to focus on his footwork, pocket presence, and better decision making. Back to X’s and O’s and I’m confident Reid will help get him there.
I agree with all of that, but I think Reid himself has been in a slump ever since his son got into the drunk driving accident. Better playcalling would be nice. And it would also be nice if “elite” Tyreek would stop making huge mistakes with the ball in his hands.

A common theme on offense during the SB runs was the obvious fun they were having. Now they look like stressed out grown up with real jobs.
Lotta truth here

Tom Brady's asshole is tighter than a roll of quarters during a game. That doesn't matter.

Brady also had a coach that would cut players that ****ed up.

Andy’s ****-ups hang around like herpes.

Is he having a stretch where he is not playihg his best football?

Yeah.

Regression implies a permanent step backwards.....I think the term is overkill.

He is trying to overcompensate for the defense by taking chances he normally wouldn't take and they have not worked out.

Has Mahomes declined (despite his league leading QBR) or is it actually the league worst defense that is holding the team back?

This is a tough one.

He's on pace for 58 TDs. I think overreaction is the only word to describe this. He's been pretty damn good aside from various moments last night, which was in poor conditions.

Because he played on an unmatched string of elite level teams where he barely had to do anything but maintain ball possession and throw short passes. The mythology around Brady is honestly 10 times more ridiculous than it is around MJ and so much of it is underserved.

He's leading the league in QBR with only Stafford close to him right now among other QBs. Many people apparently don't have a goddamn clue what they're even watching.

Mahomes is elite and right now he is getting hosed over by poor decisions.

Build the man a defense.

People seem to be misinterpreting this as a bash Mahomes post which is not the case.

Patrick has not been the problem this year. This is more me pointing out that the obstacles he's facing this year are so much greater than in the past that even he is unable to overcome it like he always has before.

It's become clear this year that just having Patrick Mahomes isn't going to be good enough to solve all our problems. The rest of the team is simply too flawed this year for him to be able to cover it all up.

He had a losing record in college. One player cannot fix a trash roster. KC has 3 good players and a bunch of scrubs, including very highly paid scrubs on defense. Maybe they should have spent the $70M on offense instead of their 5 highly paid defensive players. Couple of stud WR, couple of stud RB would go a long way.

Clark and Jones actually rushing the passer to the level they're paid for would change everything on defense.

The biggest problem on D is easily the line. There's just no pressure whatsoever.

He's 9th in Passer Rating, right behind Joe Burrow and Jameis Winston. QBR isn't a real stat because it has no formula, it's just some schmuck's opinion in number form with a lot of smoke and mirrors added to make it seem more 'official' than that.

Or is it poor coaching, to push Mahomes not to trust his instincts. If there is a problem with Patrick he seems more indecisive and going against his gunslinger mentality
