"The Chiefs offense is better without Tyreek Hill"

He's ascended even further, its unbelievable.

Mahomes is definitely having a great year. I'd pump the brakes a little on the 'impeccable' decision-making, but agree with the rest. Helps a ton when he can trust that his receivers will run the right routes and be in the right places, plus catch the ball most of the time as well. Last year it seemed like he'd get frustrated with the WR4/5/6 just failing consistently in those areas, and say to himself, "screw it, where's Kelce/Hill?"

This year, that's happened in a few spots/games, but mostly he's been able to spread the ball around and not get into those mental traps.
