3/4 of plays are run out of shotgun. The majority of those plays are pass plays. The majority of plays under center are run plays, as in something like 80%. So most of the reason you need to be able to do it is to catch the defense off-guard a very small % of the time. In which case the defense is off balance anyway. Obviously an oversimplification. But Mahomes needs to only be proficient at it. |

Under center sells play-action better, and with such a good RB and deep threats at TE and WR1? the Chiefs should run a ton of PA snaps.

Coaches don’t like to get fired. If they get fired, they want it to be due to the limitations of their own ability to coach, not due to quarterback’s inability to play the coach’s best game.

The ability to disguise play action and other schemes that you can not do from the shotgun. I am sure he will be in shotgun some like most QBs.

Future HOF QB Ben Roethlisberger says hello. Carson Wentz, likely NFL MVP if not injured, says hello (71%), Future HOF QB Aaron Rodgers says hello (75%16 since he was injured for a lot of 2017)...yeah, but not real QBs. SMH |

Includes a nice chart of 2015 shotgun numbers. Tons of QBs well over 80% in the shotgun. |

This is an area where I am somewhat ignorant. What is Mahomes doing wrong when under center? He looked fine in the highlights I saw of him. Maybe he's not as fast backpedalling as Smith, but let's face it Smith is simply the faster quarterback.
Can anyone enlighten me into what Pat is doing wrong when he takes snaps from under center? |

Who cares if he’s in the shotgun 80% of the time. You’re more successful on the goal line and short yardage when you’re under center. Learning how to line up under center makes him better, it doesn’t hurt him. He won’t forget how to take a shotgun snap. |
