It is a fine line between leading the receiver too much while hoping he stays at the same speed or throwing exactly where he is and risking it knocked away or intercepted.
Wilson has two sure-handed receivers that are excellent at tracking the ball, plus a lot more years experience throwing it. He was "On" that game for sure. I think Mahomes will develop more touch on deep throws as he gets more games under his belt.

Think about how dangerous this offense has been all season, then think about the fact that they haven't taken advantage of those open deep balls. If they suddenly start connecting those on a regular basis... holy shit.
