Patrick Mahomes

[japhy]

MY prediction for Mahomes on Sunday.
25 completions on 32 attempts
349 passing yards
3 passing TD
0 INT
37 rushing yards
1 rushing TD
Does't play the majority of the 4th quarter because the Chiefs are up 20+ points

I was reading the other day that Justin Fields believes the reason he looks "robotic" on the field is because that is how the coaches have been coaching him to play.

But Sunday, he is going to put that thinking stuff behind him and just play with a free mind! As a Chief's fan I like the sound of that.

I think basically they want to make him be more of a pocket QB...so i'd expect for him to just say F it and start running this weekend.

Nick Bolton spy time.

Bears were too worried he would get hurt playing the way he was most successful.
Instead they want him to stay in the pocket (and get sacked because their O-line is terrible or he makes terrible decisions/indecisions) and clearly that's not working well.
He's another Bears QB disaster.

Sorry if this was posted on the Chiefs thread. I didn't see it.
Crazy fact....

Wilson is the ONLY QB to ever have fewer INT’s and more completions, passing yards, and TD passes in a game against Mahomes (in a Mahomes start).

Zach Wilson surprised me with several good throws.
Our defense, however, was shat-tastic Sunday night.

If Wilson stays the course, he will have as many Super Bowls as Kirk Cousins.

Mahomes is 2 wins away from tying Joe Montana ( 16 ) for 2nd all time in QB playoff wins.

We all know who is first but can you guess how many wins he has?

[DCHawk1]

CnB would know.

I know he played 20+ seasons. Figure he made the playoffs 15+ seasons. Won 7 Super Bowls.
I'm going with 40.

[pdub]

That’s a very good guess Gutter.
A touch high.
You need to realize, they had 2 byes for I think a long while and that’s 1 game Brady would often miss out on.

looking for his 6th straight postseason game without an interception

impressive

per NBCSports:

He has just seven interceptions in his 16 career postseason games, and he has basically played another whole season's worth of games in the postseason while putting up MVP-type numbers: In the postseason Mahomes has thrown 38 touchdown passes, totaled 4,561 yards, completed 66.8 percent of his passes and averaged 7.8 yards per attempt, with a passer rating of 106.7.

I read this morning that barring injury, Pacheco will become (this weekend) the Chiefs' all time playoff rushing leader. As good as he's been, that says way more about the franchise than the player.

Even with the play off droughts, the Chiefs move on quickly from RBs generally. Priest and Okoye were obtained fairly late, like the Williams' and Marcus Allen.

And playoff appearances were both infrequent AND short.

Oh yeah. I vaguely remember a 50-year black-out period where Lin Elliot appears as a the Hitchhiker, subbing for Paige Fletcher.

[KUTradition]

it’s kinda crazy recalling the Montana/Allen years

All of it makes me think that, from a strategy standpoint, whatever the Chiefs want in terms of public funding for a new stadium, they should ask for now.

I have a feeling the Golden Era withdrawals are going to be SEVERE.

Yeah, who is second, Marcus Allen? He played 6 playoff games in 5 seasons for KC. Pacheco is playing in his sixth playoff game in just 2 seasons this weekend.

To put in in perspective, prior to the arrival of Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs had just 5 postseasons out of 50+ where they won at least one game and got to play more than one game. Since Mahomes, the Chiefs have had 6 straight seasons where they won at least one playoff game and (I believe) an NFL record five straight where they have won at least 2 games.
