Am I crazy for not liking the decision to go deep to Hill?

[Direckshun]

I’m on my phone, sorry for the lack of embed [help from a mod would be appreciated], but look at this play design:

I’m actually not thrilled at that play.

And I think it’s honestly the difference between Mahomes (who’s great) and Brady (who is the greatest).

Brady will take that dump off to Williams 10 times out of 10 until defenses play it honestly. Chew up 7 yards at a time, never take a risk, and control the game. Next time Hill is open, the odds of another defender cheating deep to punish him will be low.

Mahomes is an ambitious predator, always looking for the kill shot. But he did it at the expense of Hill’s health here.

Sometimes the kill shot is there, but the dump off is always there and Brady will always take it. That’s why he’s so consistent in the postseason, where risky behavior can kill you as often as it wins for you.

This play is insane. Patrick Mahomes is moving 5.3 MPH at the time of throw here, per @NextGenStats.

Which wouldn't be that crazy if he weren't moving 5.3 MPH *to the left* as he threw to the *right*. pic.twitter.com/sLVnB7cpeC

Have you even watched the Chiefs since Mahomes became the starter? Jeeez...you ****ing idiots do not deserve this awesome QB...

A thread to second guess todays amazing total domination.


What sort of stupid is this shit?

Seriously...some people think of the stupidest shit to be "uncomfortable" with...

You take the good with the bad. Whatever the hell bad is.

You should be marveling over that play.

[Wallcrawler]

I've watched years and years and YEARS of ****ing dumpoffs, and checkdowns, and passes parallel to the line.

We have the best quarterback on the planet that can make the most impossible throws, and YOU WANT TO SEE HIM DUMP IT OFF.

Find yourself another quarterback to watch for the next 15 years if that's what you want.

Don't come in here slobbing Bradys knob like you're an adopted son. Just go watch the Bucs and **** off if Bradys play style is what you want to see.

To answer the question, No. You're not crazy.

You're just ****ing stupid.

Wasp is too risky, let's dump it off instead.

That's an elite, very few people in the world can and will make that throw, kind of throw... and you don't neuter that.

Steve Kerr had a great quote about Steph Curry in a recent article I read that essentially said "Curry throws up shots that coaches are taught to train out of athletes, but with Curry you have to accept that the rules are different for him..and just not accept it, but embrace it".

Patrick is built the same way.

How can you make so much sense here yet so little sense in a Chris Jones evaluation?

You are an enigma, Wallcrawler. And I like it.

Patrick Mahomes as a starter has been to 3 straight AFC title games and back to back superbowls.

Yeah, his risky behavior has really hindered us in the post season during his career.

[KC_Connection]

Awful thread. Mahomes chooses the run and the 1st down in a different game situation and has many times in the past. They were blowing them out at the time, there was nothing wrong with it.

It is amazing how many coaches over the years have ruined athletes because they didn't conform to the average standard.

Heh.

I just said we overpaid for Jones, and would not have martyred myself in the parking lot of Arrowhead if he were traded at the time his deal was up. Nothing more.

When you give one dude enough money to pay 2-3 solid defenders, the guy (in my opinion), better show up and show out every night. 2.7 pressures and all that...miss me.

I'm jaded by the Berry and Houston deals to be sure. I'm glad he's wrecking shit again.

But this Mahomes needs to take what the d gives, stop being a killer out on the field, I just won't ever understand that.

D-Shun is an extreme liberal with extremely conservative football views.

He's over compensating.
