I like his brother T.R. Ihmed Kuntz a little better. His copy is just ... a little more orderly.

I can't imagine that the Benglas are looking past us but it really seems like they are based on what they're saying lol

I really hope they've already written this game off as a gimme win

Patrick Mahomes Dropback Splits

Straight Drops Wks 13-18 72.6 17th 71.0 16th
Rolls/Scrambles Wks 1-12 86.2 1st 77.9 1st
Rolls/Scrambles Wks 13-18 88.3 2nd 85.6 2nd
*Among passers with at least 25 such dropbacks in each timeframe

The magic clearly hasn’t waned, but something is amiss from the pocket. One might ask why Week 13 was so arbitrarily used as the cutoff in the above table. The answer? That's when Kansas City faced its upcoming conference championship opponent, the Cincinnati Bengals.

Since then, Mahomes has been very ordinary when dropping straight back and throwing from the pocket. The Chiefs' approach appears to have become far more conservative, too. There are struggles at wide receiver, as well as a declining amount of man coverage being played against Kansas City since that Bengals game.

If recent trends hold, there will be many nervous onlookers waiting to see if Mahomes’ injury hampers his seemingly unstoppable improvisational skills. If that is the case, then we will see a battle of two quarterbacks dueling from the pocket. The difference between them? Mahomes has struggled of late from there, while Joe Burrow is currently the best pocket passer the league has to offer.

I have been thinking for weeks now that Andy has been keeping things simple to not show anything until it is needed. It is now needed, and I am excited to see what wizardry Andy has cooked up!

Patrick is a X man QB.. He has Wolverines healing powers… Mahomes has to be a mutant..

But he's only going to be 50% this week! A reliable source said so!

With all the shit smack they're doing, it seems like they're believing the hype. That type of attitude has a way of coming back to bite you in the ass.

Have to love all these talking heads talking out their ass.. Nobody knows how bad it is except Mahomes and the organization… All the talking about walking boots and crutches..ROFLROFL.. Shut up bitches!!

I would guess it was more of knowing they could be pretty vanilla and win the rest of the games without showing much.

Alright, so.

An easy jog is not the split-second urgency of having to violently dig your heel in to take off to avoid pressure.

But.... that is super promising.
