Tap the brakes a little on Mahomes

[LACowboysFan1]

Really looking forward to seeing what mahomes does in the playoffs.

Imo they aren't there yet.

I think the pressure will get to him, he'll throw a couple of picks and the Chiefs will lose the first playoff game 31-17. Have to remember also Hunt isn't there anymore, and Ware missed he last game with a hamstring injury. If Ware can't go, or is limited, unless the 3rd stringer can make some magic happen, defenders can tee off on Mahomes. Playing the Broncos twice, the 49ers, etc. doesn't give you much of a test, playing top teams in the playoffs every game is much tougher.

But what do I know

The media hype of Mahomes is overbearing, and somewhat deserving, but a closer look at 3 national primetime games, he went 0-3, after last nights loss, the Chiefs are in danger of losing the #1 seed, and the AFC West.

Pats loss (43-40)
Rams loss (54-51)
Chargers loss (29-28)

3 good teams that are all headed to the playoffs, yet he lost to all 3, most are buying the hype, I'm a bit skeptical, will see what happens next week in Seattle.

I really like how you disproved your argument in the very process of making your argument. Good use of parentheses.

The Vikings robbed themselves. Who didn't see that coming? I never thought Cousins was that good.

I wouldn't blame Mahomes either. His defense can't keep teams out of the endzone. But how about Rivers in that game? He was under constant pressure all game and made some clutch throws.

3 years, $82.5m FULLY GUARANTEED, plus the ~$40m he extracted from the Racial Slurs the previous two years.

For Kirk Cousins. Kirk Freakin' Cousins. I need his agent.

I love that he drives a $5,000 beater and lives in his parents house with his wife in the summer. In the basement. And he doesn't pay rent...lol.

Just wondering then, what do you think of our QB then since he's about the complete opposite of Mahomes?

High octane O's w/ no D don't win super bowls.

Let Garrett coach him.....he'll have him looking like Ryan Leaf in no time.

 

[Hoofbite]

He'll regress because his level of play has never been sustained over multiple years. He could hit 50 TDs, which has only happened 2 times in the history of the NFL.

Pointing out a handful of games where his lowest QBR was 110 as a reason to doubt him is just foolish. Give me any QB who can put up 119 points in his only 3 losses through 14 weeks. Any team that can't win with Mahomes production doesn't deserve to win.

1. None of the losses are Mahomes fault
2. None of the losses are on the offense who are putting up almost 40 PPG during the losing streak.

make it 0-4 in national primetime games this year, all against playoff teams.

Pats loss (43-40)
Rams loss (54-51)
Chargers loss (29-28)
Seattle loss (38-31)

the MVP should go to Brees, Mahomes is a great talent, but cant win the big one as of yet.

 

[Tenkamenin]

Kinda hard to blame a qb that puts up 40,51, and 28 pts.
That chiefs defense will be their downfall

He didn’t put up 60, 70, and 80 pts therefore his team lost.

 

[HowardC]

Mahomes won't be figured out like Dak because he isn't a gimmick QB. Mahomes makes amazing throws consistently. The Cowboys are resorting to running frickin jet sweeps and **** in the redzone for crying out loud! There is way anyone in their right mind can blame Mahomes for these losses.

Those games are on the Chiefs Defense. 31, 43, and 51 should be enough to win most NFL games. The Chiefs Defense puts so much pressure on Mahomes to have to score every drive and if they lose in the playoffs, it will be more on their D than Mahomes
