Hypothetical stats:

  • His current completion percentage is 67.1%. If every dropped ball had been caught, his completion percentage would be 74% which would be 4% better than any other starting QB (Brock Purdy at 70%) in the league.

  • If the Chiefs had the average amount of dropped balls (11) instead of the most (26), Mahomes completion percentage would be 71% for best in the league.

    When your QB is getting paid 210mil from 2023-26, Chris Jones at 28mil, and you’re paying 2 OLine handsomely you’re gonna lack receivers.

    Chiefs chose to build defense and OLine now, gotta live with bad receivers.

    For fairness shouldn’t Purdy throws dropped be added on just to make it apples to apples

    What is amazing to me about Mahomes is how effortless his throws look - even his long throws. Rodgers - as a counter example - always looked to me like he was exerting in his throws. But Mahomes looks like he is handing someone a grocery bag filled with popcorn - but really it was a dart thrown 40 yards down field.

    Jordan Love feels his pain (although Mahomes is at a completely different and elite level, this shit hurts).

    I thought Dak’s WRs let him down last season, but this is whole new level. There were so many strikes last night that my grandmother could’ve caught with her oven mitts.

    Yeah sure, except you’d have to then adjust the completion % of every other QB to account for drops as well to make this comparison even remotely meaningful.

    This is a dumb post overall, but really highlights how terrible our receivers are lol. Although Toney’s first game is still almost 20% of their drops this season

    Mahomes is getting the Mac Jones special. Horrible WRs play and separation. Should have paid Tyreek
