But I am not at all comfortable with the attitude of many posters here that say don’t worry he can just flip a key come to playoffs. He had a bad year last year because of drops, not because of his poor play so much. The drops ended when they simplified the offence and stopped playing Sky and Toney. This year, although he is not the only problem, much of the problem lies with his poor play. That will be harder to turn around on a dime and he needs to start making that change now. In my view the most important part is that as worthy continues to be able to get open, Mahomes needs to start throwing to him accurately.
It is worth noting that We are such a great team that we are still nine and one despite the problems we have had. And nobody seems to be saying it, but I think Drew Tranquill should’ve been able to tackle Allan on his TD run and then Mahomes would’ve probably had another chance to see if he could have reverted to his elite level when it was needed to win the game.

It FEELS like everyone who isn't emotionally connected to the team SEES plainly that Pat is the issue.
The problem is, as soon as you say that a bunch of posters here go into full attack mode, when it's obvious to anyone who is breaking down film and Pats play that he's NOT GOOD this season.
And lots of all time greats have some bad seasons. And Pat is having one.
