He definitely has some trust issues going on.

Yeah, while I don't claim to be an expert at this stuff, the speed rush around LT is working mostly because Patrick constantly goes too far back. Brady has never been fantastic at running away from coverage, but he knows when to step UP. It seems like we almost never see that from Mahomes.
