QB School: Mahomes missed two chances to go to the SB

[Hammock Parties]

Hardman, Kelce or Pringle.

He just missed them. Period.

[Hammock Parties]

Wow. Hill had goddamn nothing in the second half of this game. Not one touch.

What a complete failing by Mahomes and our offensive braintrust.

The biggest weapon in football. Shutout.

Now I'm really mad.

Now in complete fairness, Hill is someone that needs to have guys in his ear to stay pumped up. We've heard it it in his own words several times where he'll acknowledge getting down and having Kelce or Mahomes get his mind right to get back out there and play.

With whatever funk Kelce and Mahomes were in, that probably left a hell of a vacuum that could've easily sucked Hill in as well.

90% of what we saw wasn't a disease in its own right - it was just another symptom of the underlying malady and that malady was a crisis of confidence for our generational quarterback.

****ing sucks, man.

Would make sense why Hardman and Hill were yelling at each other on the sideline

they need to a change is the coaching staff. No, not Andy. Some new blood. EB needs to go be a head coach. Let Kafka have a chance. Andy’s not getting rid of Spags but we need a few leaders on that defense that can play. The honey Badger needs to go. Clark, Hitchens too.

Just seems like things have got a little stale or something.

You seriously need to look at a new username.

Re-watching that final Chiefs drive of the 4th quarter, Kelce wasn’t even in the game on 2nd and goal.

A critical drive/down, following a Bengals time out and Kelce is on the sideline?

Just a complete cluster.

I truly do not get it. Somebody needs to be fired

Strange, but also irrelevant.

Hardman was open. Should’ve been an easy TD even with Kelce on the sideline.

I don't want to believe Mahomes threw the game on purpose. But something definitely happened just before the half.
Maybe we will never know.

I don't think it's that far fetched to say he just had a bad half. I've seen Mahomes have some pretty terrible games this season.

For whatever reason Mahomes lost his confidence in the 2nd half. It was obvious when he was missing routine passes but the 3rd down play with goal to go is the most egregious. Have to throw it on a rope to Kelce to attempt to win the game. We've seen him make that throw and especially to our most trusted target, hard to understand what changed mentally for him in the 2nd half.

Terrible "games." Not go from absolutely dominant to absolutely shit like someone flipped his light switch.

I can attribute this to one of two things:

1) He threw the game
2) He had a concussion we didn't know about.

There really isn't much else there to describe the failure to throw it to wide-open receivers drive after drive in that 2nd half.

I'd like to believe it wasn't 1, but my eyes tell me otherwise.

Couple that with Chris Jones miraculously missing 3 sacks he just doesn't miss and Sorensen running away from the receiver he was told to cover by 4 other players, and I just can't. I can't chalk this up to "well we failed because."

To be fair Sorensen doesn’t know what he’s doing half the time. Also, Mahomes has a QBR of 98 in first half and a 1.4 in second half. That is the biggest gap between two halves in NFL history just an fyi

He was refusing to throw balls that literally the worst QB's in the league can complete.

2 pt conversion?
