Under constant heavy pressure, Mahomes ain't so hot?

Under constant pressure, league MVP Patrick Mahomes wasn't quite himself, was he? Footwork, and poise, can only do so much if you have pass rushers in your face.

I've heard that's no excuse.

I've heard that's no excuse.

sacks and INTs, but yes, I've heard and read that's no excuse.

 

[toffee]

Now TWO ints.

I've heard that's no excuse.

Yeah. Geno should play more like Mahomes behind poor Oline play and constant pressure.

I mean this literally happened 4 years ago against the Bucs.

Why isn't Patrick Mahomes simply "elevating his team?"

I was told that great quarterbacks do that no matter what?

Oh, wait, that's right - that's fundamentally incorrect and not how the sport of football works.

At this point, Mahome would LOVE to have some completion %.

Mahomes is clearly just a bridge until they can find the next Mahomes.

Andy was wishing that he had a Geno Smith as backup QB on his roster. In a game like today, he would have someone who is an expert in playing under pressure.
