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]

Yea he's right, but he's saying that Mahomes has "NO idea what he's doing". It's as if he's implying that he won't ever be able to learn. [Reply]

Ah. Didn't see the second photo. Yes, with proper timing and going through his reads, he should have delivered it there. That's where the pump was coming in, he must have felt like he missed it.
Still... that shows some progression. At Tech or even earlier, he would have just let that throw rip without accounting for extra defenders in the zone.
It looks like his first read was the outside deep route, progressed back to the middle, hesitated, and tried to make something happen rather than risking a late throw.
That definitely shows where he needs to go in terms of development.

I think he's learning. I don't think he does really have the best grasp yet on the offense which, I don't think surprises anyone.

I'd imagine it's things like that that Andy wants to see him improve on, which appears he has some to this point. Just takes time [Reply]

Also, I dont think that middle of the field receiver was open. It would have been a risky play to throw that ball.
Yep, it is easy for some complete Dbag on twitter to screen save a shot and use it for his own agenda. Mahomes was On the field- if he thought he could make that throw, he would have.
The Fact is: Mahomes skipped the Alex check down, rolled out to buy time and made a HUGE play. That is not speculation-that is the truth. [Reply]

People are taking the "structure of the offense" comment too far. Watch this:
