Dane and I see eye to eye on this.
Mahomes needs a ton of work to start. Learning to call plays is just the tip of the iceberg.
He hasn't taken snaps from under center
He's never taken drops.
His college offense forced defenses to rush 3 and drop 8 almost every game...so he needs a ton of work on identifying blitzes and adjusting protections.
He has faced mostly soft defenses in college. Linebackers in the NFL are as fast as the corners he was facing in college.
He hasn't faced complicated defenses before like he will see in the NFL.
Sight adjustment routes
Timing in the offense
Identifying personnel both in house and of opposing squads is HUGE at the NFL level.
All of that is going to be stuff Pat is going to need to learn before he's gonna be ready to lead the team
