Because of all the interest in this thread, I've place all of the video content of Patrick Mahomes II's college career, and draft day goodness into a single post that can be found here. Enjoy! [Reply]

i noticed it to start the game, and then he ditched it shortly after. was this as simple as he wasn't comfortable, or was it some ****in memorabilia scheme for game worn apparel? :-)
He wore a glove on his left hand for the entire Broncos game last year when it was very cold. Maybe it wasn't as cold Sunday night as he expected. [Reply]

He seems pretty comfortable rolling out, don’t make him do something he’s not comfortable with. If it ain’t broken don’t fix it.
This.
Injuries happen all the time, in the pocket, out of the pocket, on the field, and even off the field.
Andy is doing a fantastic job with Pat. He needs to help the kid identify looks where he made bad throws so he doesn’t repeat mistakes, but the kid has been the best player in the sport most weeks and has a chance to develop into something this league has never seen before.
We might have literally drafted “the Michael Jordan of football”. [Reply]

He said on the first opening drive for Pat, he glanced at the skycam when he was in the huddle. Simms said he could tell Mahomes was amped up and a little excited.

The defender on the receiver had no play on the ball - which was thrown perfectly once the receiver started a break to his left.
I can't blame Kelce for running with the QB here but I believe you are correct. It's not as bad as I initially thought. Kelce did what he is supposed to when the QB is scrambling but if he stayed that's a TD to Watkins I bet. [Reply]
Definitely "Battery" by Metallica. You can see in his eyes he's just sitting there imagining a pass so powerful it removes the heads of three defenders on its way to Tyreek's waiting hands.
Or maybe the Humpty Dance. We just don't know. [Reply]
