Mahomes dug us out of a 2nd and 30, and followed that with the infamous left handed pass to a Reek on yet another critical third down... all on the same game winning drive
On the road
In his fourth start
We haven’t seen anything yet
I'm rock hard in terms of having a boner

I don't know If anyone else has noticed this, but it would appear that Pat is working on his left-hand throws yall. Here's some info about it.

HERE of him launching a long left-handed throw and almost hitting the crossbar.
The first tweet was from a three days ago so he's been working on them on different days. When he completed that pass to Tyreek In Denver I think that really opened up his imagination as to what is possible on the field. Before he had only done that In college to put the ball out of play but that pass was crucial in continuing the drive and he also tried it once more against the Chargers IIRC. Some might think he's just playing around in practice but I really think this is part of developing a left-hand game long-term so that when he has to leave the pocket and go left he will have much more options than your average QB who cannot throw left-handed. It could also be a lethal weapon on the goal-line too if defenses have no clue which hand you're gonna throw with.
Just looking at the practice throw and he's got his technique down pretty good and the ball had a spiral as well. I'm really happy that he's doing this because if he continues to develop this things could get crazy in a few years...it really could
:-) . Gonna keep an eye out for more developments on this front and then we'll see if he throws some lefty passes In the pre-season games.
