Boy it really feels like they're gearing up for a SB run this year.

That's a perfect fit for Mahomes.

I think Conley is kind of a tease. People always expect more out of him because he's bright, he's big, he's fast, and he can jump.

But at no point in college or as an NFL player has he really shown any sort of ability to leverage those skills for consistent success.

I think Mahomes is the type of QB who can elevate the WRs around him, but just not sure how much Conley can be elevated.

Well Conley's vertical jump at the combine was 45 inches, so I think he can be elevated almost 4 feet.

This sounds like hyperbole but I've seen more from Marcus Kemp in preseason than I've seen in two seasons of Conley during the regular season.

Kemp looks like what Conley should have looked like his rookie preseason.

What % of this in your mind is attributed to the guy throwing the ball though?

Zero.

Kemp doesn't drop balls and runs great routes. Conley improved upon his route running last year but he dropped too many balls.
