Mahomes knows how to read defenses.
The issue is Andy Reid's special creation aged out of style and we refuse to adapt.
Last year when teams had two high we would counter with RPO's. (See Buffalo AFC Championship)
But now teams are playing shell and the linebackers are far enough back and told not to bother with the run..squeeze the RPO windows.
And we have no counter.
Mahomes first reads are still usually verticals down the field.
As I said, this is what happened to A Rodgers when people caught on to MccCarthy and McCarthy kept going "We are who we are."
For Green Bay all you had to do was play Cover 2 and it was into the woodchipper for them.
