If the defense is better- that means he won't be standing on the sideline 65% of the game while the other team is eating up the clock.

He will get More opportunities, More scoring drives, more everything. Under your scenario- the defense is doing their job- but you are hoping the offense is Less efficient.

Same when Brady threw for 50 Td's. The had incredible talent on the Offensive side of the ball- but also had a defense that could make teams go away from what they do best.

Chief's have made a huge effort by the players they have signed on defense- to stop the run. They want to get a lead- make teams one dimensional and force them into mistakes.

Same blueprint as 2 Championship teams when they had unstoppable offenses. Mahomes should get More chances to put up numbers- Not less.

Plus we don't have Barry Word and Okoye back there to run out the clock every time we get up a few scores.

Expecting Mahomes to do worse than last year is simply not probable.

Notice I said "a little".
I think some of you might have forgotten how Andy Reid pulls the offense back when we get a lead in games.
If the D is better we will not be in near as many shoot outs.
Between those two things it is likely that Mahomes stats are not as big as last years.

Through 3 games Mahomes is averaging 398 yards. On pace for 6373 and 53 TDs

And you know what. He's been taking 3 qtrs off each game.

Peyton Mannings record of 5477 is going down this year.

Two of the three games were against elite defenses.

He would if he was on a worse team. We see him routinely put up 300 by halftime, and then we go into conservative mode.

Pat needs 365 yards today to stay on pace for 6000 yards

I think Patrick will throw for a little over 5,000 yards.

I'm hoping that KC has enough of a NFL lead that in week 17, against the LA Chargers, Patrick plays kind of like a preseason game and then the backup QB comes in. Either Chad Henne, if he is back from IR, or Matt Moore.
