Mahomes as at the back of his drop and the ball was out - immediately. If it wasn't, he started looking for a lane to run or in one case took a sack.
It was OBVIOUSLY a concerted effort to keep the clock running and protect the ball. From Reid, yes, but Mahomes as well. It was the PLAN after halftime.
It wasn't an accident. It wasn't a necessary evil. It was how they intended to win that game and they were dead-ass right.

I like this version of Mahomes. I know people want to see the exciting plays, but more than anything I want Patrick to avoid the dumb mistakes that hurt the team. If he can fully eliminate his Brett Favre aggressiveness for the rest of his Playoff career, the Chiefs are gonna be really hard to beat every year.
