Mahomes' play has been far from optimal QB play at times. He had some trouble adjusting to what defenses were throwing at us last year. Sometimes we lived on the freakish ability of Hill and Kelce more than anything. But the personnel we have now is probably better suited, from top to bottom, at using the whole field and sustaining drives. Reid has adjusted the offense to respond to the 2 deep looks, and by the end of this year I think we'll be saying that Mahomes has improved as a passer a lot.
All the things that make Mahomes great and help him overcome mistakes and create opportunities out of nothing also mean he doesn't play textbook football all the time. He's not going to be the clinical efficiency type like some other great QBs are. He's always going to be one of those who has feel for the game and instinct as a major part of his game. Seeing him develop as a passer makes him more dangerous, but we don't want him to change what essentially has made him great.
