As soon as I saw it was Blakeman, I turned to my wife and said we're going to have to blow the Ravens out. Close game and we're in trouble. Sadly, I was right. [Reply]
My biggest worry is that there are things Mahomes just hasn't grown out of and they result in the degree of difficulty for plays unnecessarily increasing.
He had Allen Robinson open on the short side of the field on that play. He could've dumped it to him and see if Robinson can make a play to get the first down.
He is still dropping incredibly deep in the pocket, making the job of his tackles that much more difficult.
This is stuff he can get away with now, but if he doesn't start working on those technical pieces of the game...I worry his decline will be precipitous once he starts losing some of his athleticism. [Reply]

Allen? Do you mean Demarcus? Regardless, I would not worry about Mahomes. [Reply]

All legitimate concerns except the bolded. Robinson never makes a play with the ball in his hands. [Reply]
The biggest failure on that drive was Andy’s continued stubbornness with running the ball on every first down which resulted in a 5 yard loss and the drive went downhill from there. [Reply]

I said the same. There were two very shit calls that even Collinsworth said on air were bullshit. [Reply]

Jesus Tapdancing Christ, could you *imagine* this offense with Allen Robinson at WR?
