That offensive line and defense was atrocious and Mahomes just kept making clutch throws like every series.
I thought he was gonna get murdered on the field against LSU. They wrecked the offensive line like a herd of bison running over children.

I already knew Mahomes was probably more talented than any Tech QB that previously flamed out in NFL, but the LSU bowl game is what really convinced me that Patrick had a very good chance to be successful in the NFL. Tech OL got completely destroyed in that LSU game and Patrick kept figuring out a way to pull magic out of his hat. I figured he would never have such a poor OL in the NFL as he did in that LSU game.
He was very fortunate to end up in KC with Coach Reid, Kelce, Tyreek, Alex and others who have helped make his transition much easier than it would be somewhere else. But I think even if he ended up on a bad team, he would still be a very good playmaker in this league. The kid just has a magic quality to his game.
