When they don't work, neither does he. He's teetering on the cliff of being a "system QB" and people just can't accept that. |

QB’s often face defensive wrinkles that weren’t seen on film and everyone’s game, from the coaching staff to the last guy on the 53, is at its highest level because everyone knows what’s at stake (especially monetarily). |

That's a fair criticism but when he is on he is on. You don't run for over 1k yards and throw 36 tds and just 6 ints in a season because you are an average QB, dude can ball

It's interesting that you use the phrase "dude can ball". Sounds like the playground. That might be the best comparison actually. In many ways, he looks like a playground player on a football field. When the opponent is actually organized and disciplined, that stuff doesn't work. |

Because Jackson is black and he can run he is a playground player and not a QB? That's ridiculous. Its 2020 not every QB is going to be a pocket passer. If that was case he'd wouldn't have thrown for 36 TDs and 6 INTs w garbage at WR last season. |

Being mobile is not "playground football". There have been many QBs who used mobility as part of their game win Super Bowls. The difference is whether mobility is something you use to augment your passing or if mobility is basically your whole game. The latter has never succeeded at the NFL level and it never will. The QB has to be able to read and break down defenses on the fly and throw the ball accurately. |

Mahomes reads the whole field well and can make the right decisions on the fly and deliver the ball accurately. He uses mobility to extend plays or to take what the defense is giving him on the ground. His talents allow him to execute an offense at a high level. He doesn't need an offense designed around his shortcomings.

That does NOT make him a "running QB" nor does that make him a "playground player". Alex Smith never had less than 300 yards rushing while in KC and no one would call him a "playground player". |
