Problem is Mahomes never looks at one guy for that long unless he's an elite player. So even when Moore wins Mahomes already looked him off.
Rice sparkles in the open field, it's special. It makes Mahomes want to get him the ball. Guys who can take a short pass a long way are a QB's best friend.
It doesn't help Skyy is a dork.

He doesn't seem the sharpest guy. Sometimes that matters, sometimes it doesn't. The most disappointing thing for me is he was a YAC monster in college (yes in a small school) like Rice but that hasn't converted at all. None of the wiggle or tackle-breaking ability has crossed over, at all. He SHOULD have worked if that had happened but they obviously projected incorrectly.
