Mahomes Grade Game 3
 

Going to get this started early, poll to come.

A

B+

2 drives leading towards an incomplete strictly because penalties have killed both drives before they could get started. Peyton Manning in his prime couldn't drive with this oline.

Manning won a SB behind the worst OL ever to play in the NFL.

Defense won that

D so far

Assuming he's done for the night, he gets a C from me.

He made some great throws, but also took a bad sack and wasn't quite as accurate as last week. I'll give him a B-.

C, but I'm only grading the plays he had control of. A few poor decisions and one or two throws got away from him. Pretty sad that he didn't have his best game and yet had most of the big plays from our offense on the night.

He just needs the time on the bench running the scout team in practice for a year at this point, honestly. Preseason snaps aren't going to teach him anything at all until he can get practice with the basics of throwing from a base.

Your d was amazing that year

dunno man.. "excuses" were there and legit. Still, he's just one of those types.. never know how it all goes. A few plays where I am shaking my head thinking he really does GOT IT. Then, just as many plays where I see a mess.

So, **** grades at this point. Truly is ALL about Mahomes' effort and dedication. The talent is certainly there.. the Chiefs' talent.. minus playcalling and receiver catch-hands.. and RB yards.. hmm... hold up.. :hmmm:

wait... let me think on this some more...

B made a couple great throws and a few not so great.

His footwork looked terrible at times and led to poor throws. Other times he made great plays. I'll give him a D tonight, the lack of consistency makes it below average.

With Saturday and Lilja?
