All you did was take a guy's first start and averaged it out over 16 games. I'm not going average out a totally meaningless week 17 game against a 5-11 team that had given up and taken MOST of their defensive starters out by the start of the 3rd quarter over 16 games and then say 'realistic'. Mahomes showed a lot, but c'mon. That's not a realistic way to think of anything. Even if you're right that's a terrible way to get to the conclusion. |

To say that Mahomes will throw for 3,500 yards is to say that he is, at best, a very, very average QB..... |
I expect growing pains along with signs of whether he is the next best thing or another Todd Blackledge. As a fan that has watched this team try it the hard way, I am ready to watch them try it the easy way; grab a guy that hasn't been broken or given up on by another team.
I would like the Chiefs to win a Superbowl, more than that, I would like them to dominate the AFC instead of trying to compete and lose to what I would call lesser opponents. |
I imagine he will still have some growing pains. He will probably break 3500 passing yards. He will probably be around 20 TDs. He will have almost as many INTs. He will have some "I shouldn't have thrown that" moments but he will give us more "How did he do that" moments.

I realize many fans overestimate how good Mahomes will be in his first year starting and underestimate the defense going into next year.

I think most teams are going to force the Chiefs to run the ball....and Andy will take advantage of that. Smart head coaches generally don't have their super young QB throwing the ball 35+ times a game. Marino, Luck, and Manning are some of the few exceptions over the last 30 years... |
Mahomes isn't scared, he has the physical tools to dominate at this level.
The unknown is his mental ability and I think we saw a sample of mental maturity in the Denver game. Once Harris caught that first pass, it was on. Mahomes was locked and I don't think we have to worry about looking back. The 48 year wait is over, enjoy it. This team is going to piss the NFL and the LA bandwagon off. They know it, that is why they started the schedule out 3 of 4 on the road. It is all about LA but the Chiefs are going to spoil that party. 12-4 with a trip to the AFC championship game being the floor. |
