It's always been a Mahomes thing. He just struggles with putting air under the ball and letting players run under it in stride.

That wasn't the case in college. I think he respects those pro defenses more than he should, ends up putting way too much juice on the throws instead of just putting a nice touch on the ball like he did many times in college hitting the receivers in stride on the deep ball.
