Guarantee you if Mariota was the Chiefs QB he’d also have ridiculous stats. 

The current rules absolutely favor a guy like Mahomes (arm strength over accuracy) and speed players like the Chiefs have. The Chiefs receivers are running so wide open it’s ridiculous. Mahomes just n

Better skill players wouldn't make Mariota play better in the pocket or throw with anticipation.

 the chiefs defense is not anything to write home about yet they are 6-1, why? Because of good QB play. Having a good QB makes every little piece of the team that much better, it can mask any weakness. Unbelievable how good Goff, Mahomes have been this year.  QBs win by throwing the ball, not running not “scrambling around”. You win in this league in the pocket and that will never change.

He sees the entire field very well. 

It's amazing.  He sees and he puts the ball on the target.  He'll throw into tight coverage.  He'll run.  He took Brady to the wire when the Patriots were 100% ready and waiting for him.  Definitely not a one year wonder who defenses are going to figure out.

 

Painful to watch though for a Titans fan.  I'm real proud of today's effort, it's just hard knowing that was pretty much all we had.

Mahomes just needs to get it near them and they are making up for it because no defender is around them to disrupt. Without being able to jam and disrupt off the line, an NFL defense just can’t keep up.  

 

Chiefs just constantly run a RPO concept and have the speed to make it work time and time again.  

 

Who started the “Mariota is a one read QB thread?” The funny thing is by running their RPO concept all game,  Mahomes is actually more of the one-read QB.

Mahomes is good, but Its more their O than just the QB balling out. 

 

Alex Smith was also doing this the 1st half of last year. When looking at their O from last season, also don’t forget they added Watkins, a healthy Kelce, and Hunt being more familiar with the system.

The Lions might actually have a run game. KJ had 155 against the Fins in Miami and the team had 248 yards rushing; as a result Stafford wasn't forced to throw as much and was 18-22 for 218 and 12 for his first 13. Everyone wants to talk about Minny, Arod, and the Bears with Mack; but they're still in the thick of it and getting better.

Smith is light years better than Mariota

Ha!

 

He’s stinking it up in Washington right now. Fans are already turning on him. 

 

Could it be that Andy Reid’s system is that damn good folks?
