So after my first year starting Qb just threw a pretty bad interception, he came back and threw it 3 of 5 plays on the next possession. But yeah.
He needs to learn to play that way sometimes. That's what you do to burn out the clock on a big lead. Take those 4 or 5 yard passes, complete them and get first downs.

I don't know the solution. I just know the problem. And pass/run % doesn't matter to me - Reid constantly forgot the run in the second half with Alex Smith at QB, and all of those 2nd halves would be considered conservative. You can be pass heavy but still ultra safe. Our Indy and Tenn 2nd half losses were pass heavy, but utterly predictable and safe.
It could be something else. I just feel like Mahomes is being coached to not make mistakes when we're up, which ironically leads to second-guessing which leads to mistakes. I just don't buy that he's ineffective because he's incapable of moving the ball in those situations. Mahomes is at his best when he's taking educated chances and confidently throwing into tight windows. Not managing games.
