ALL of it comes gradually at once. Mahomes knows the entire playbook. He'll know it BETTER next year. And the year after that he'll know it even BETTER, all until he's "proficient" in the eyes of Reid.
This is exactly how Reid has described this shit for years, going all the way back to when we traded for Alex Smith.
Have you ever played football? High school? College? It's pretty common to learn stuff this way.

The playbook is maybe half of the issue with why don't play a new QB immediately. The other half is the ability to read a defense from behind the center and intuitively command an offense from the field.
No amount of flashcards and All-22 still shots are going to help the latter part of any QB's game.
