It is good that he does- that is how he is going to learn the speed of the game, what he can get away with and what will cost him. Comparing him to Jay Cutler is ridiculous. Not even the same type of player.
As 2PM grows into the dynamic player Andy feels he will be- I would expect KK's diarrhea mouth to go on overdrive. Every mistake 2PM makes will be- "See I told you folks- total LOSER- I was right." Pretty pathetic attempt to prop up his ratings.  |
I don't think the Cutler comparisons are that far off. They both have outstanding arm strength, they both can be a bit sporadic with their accuracy, and both have the tendency to throw up 50/50 balls.
They're obviously very different personalities.
I think Cutler is Mahomes' floor. I expect Mahomes to have a very Cutler like 1st year starting.
I like to go back and watch Mahomes vs "whatever football team" whenever i can. I often watch Mahomes games when im laying in bed ready to pass out. I've probably watched every game available on Youtube multiple times now.
There's a ton to like about him. But if we're being fair, there are some valid concerns regarding his game.
His accuracy can be sporadic. In the same game he'll throw high. Then he'll throw one in the dirt. Sometimes he hits the long ball perfect. Sometimes it's an overthrow. He doesn't have that Trent Green like ball placement. He holds onto the ball for quite awhile.
Many of his snaps show him holding the ball much longer than he'll be able to in the NFL.
He has the tendency to roll out of a clean pocket. He seems to favor open, clean throwing lanes and will try to position himself into one before making a throw, instead of sticking in the pocket and making the throw amidst congestion.
