DOn't think it really matters if it was backups or not. No one is going to stay with Tyreek 70 yards down the field.

All Defenses have to do is play the run on the way to the QB, not giving Mahomes any time while corralling the run game.

Mahomes has a quick release and can flick it out there so teams are still going get burnt if they are trying crash down the run game and pressure the quarterback. They are also going find ways to get Tyreek the ball like on reverse plays so Andy Reid does a good job on over aggressive defense. Lets also not discount Patrick rolling out of the pocket to buy himself time and he is a great improviser and our receivers don't quit on the play because they know Patrick is going push the field. I am concerned about our offensive line but we have weapons and a quarterback that has "testicular fortitude" |

The play that people are making a big deal about was the 1st string offense vs Atlanta's roster bubble/practice squad players.
For instance, #38 was a UDFA from Robert Morris named Marcelis Branch. |

Mahomes Hill connection is real and it's gonna happen and and it's gonna be fun to watch. I don't see any reason to downplay a big play that you can't help who you line up against he beat three professional football players. |

I suppose Reid kept Mahomes in because he wants to help the kid build up confidence after the poorly advised INT thrown earlier in the game to the backup safety, Damontae Kazee. I don't blame Reid, especially not after the INT plagued camp that Mahomes put up. |

Patrick is going torch defenses with his arm and Hill is going catch many of those thrown his way. We do need to concern ourselves with the offensive line that is the only thing that is curving my enthusiasm but a 68 yard bomb in the air for a touchdown was pretty impressive even if he was playing third string. It's going happen during the season against first string they are more than capable of doing it. We should be excited we long for such things that we haven't seen and being our own draft pick after 40 years of neglecting the quarterback in the draft this is pretty damn special eventful year. |

It was a fun play to watch and Alex Smiff wouldn't have made that play.

If you watch KC in person first thing you should notice is that Tyreek would routinely outrun 2 deep coverages when running decoy/clearing routes last year (against STARTERS). It wasn't something that our old QB could capitalize on though, because you gotta have a cannon to allow Hill to clear the defenders. Alex tried a few times and usually ended up underthrowing him by 20 yards... and most of the time Hill made the adjustment and caught it anyway.
Being able to do this will break defenses. 85/1400/10 Reek goes elite this year. It's the reason I laughed off people who said/continue saying Watkins will be the #1 guy. Bullshit. Hill is far better than many seem to realize. Last edited by WhiteWhale; 08-19-2018 at 11:57 AM.. |

It's been proven that Tyreek Hill is only capable of running past 3rd stringers. If only Kc had any evidence that Tyreek Hill was capable of beating a starting caliber player or making spectacular plays against starters, but there's just none of it. He ONLY beats people in preseason! There's no precedent for him beating STARTERS! I mean once teams put their starting safeties in (all of whom run 4.2's) Reek will never be able to outrun them. He never has. There's just not any safeties Tyreek can outrun. Who the **** is this reerun? |
