Listening at the moment, but Ryan Tracy starts off all wrong talking about how Mahomes footwork and mechanics will need to be addressed
Even Favre himself talked about it in Kissels interview that Boss Chief posted... to the point, Reid isnt going to be out to 'fix' either of those things
When a player has the abilities that Mahomes does, good coaches dont worry about those two things, they dont want to start an entirely new learning curve by fixing things that arent really broken
If they can execute the play with crazy footwork and mechanics, they can execute the play
No one ever stopped, or even tried/tries to stop Favre or Rodgers from throwing from unorthodox platforms that would destroy lesser talents... across the body to the other side of the field, off the back foot, sidearm etc
If they can make the throw, they can make it
When Mahomes has a command of the verbiage, and mostly knows when to check down to live another day... thats when he starts
Guarantee Reid doesnt give a damn about mechanics, only decision making and playbook knowledge
