This is the s**t I'm talking about what is Pitt doing?
How Keith Butler's predictability set the Steelers up to lose. Chiefs shift to trips to the field, Steelers check to 2 deep zone. 25 yard TD, 31 yard gain to Kelce. Infuriating. #Steelershttps://t.co/iLVZusoXqt pic.twitter.com/7WlY3CZXIg

I believe Mahomes is that good, but as a very young player he will likely be erratic from game to game. Against better defenses he will not have steller games but good games. The key will be the OL and whether he will have time to get the ball to one of those playmakers. So many talented receivers! And, of course, Hill is one a different level.

With the addition of Watkins, KC has one of the most talented WR/TE cores I've seen since maybe the rams superbowl team? They're just missing a Marshall Faulk.

Seeing a lot of downplaying of Mahomes in this thread. I've been hyping him up since he was drafted, and have been met with a lot of doubt.
The kid is freaking special. His arm is something that doesn't really come by often, if not ever. But, he isn't a dummy like Jeff George, and he even has touch.
He will have bad games, and hopefully this week is one of them. Although, I'm not too optimistic after seeing dudes running wide open on our D last week

Agree! At one point I was day dreaming of a Cousins/Mahomes duo while Mahomes learned the NFL. Getting JG put that to rest but I still kind of wish they had drafted Mahomes. Special talent.

Hill, Watkins, Conley, Thomas, Robinson, Chesson and a couple of young guys for development...just a great group!

This Chiefs team has been stacked on offense for a couple years now. Lets be honest.

Yes, big red is the man as he has a big influence on personnel. But didn't they have hella injuries last year? To WRs and RBs?

Mahomes is good and having those two present and healthy, he has the best WR group since Reid came to KC.

I mean, he was averaging 2 catches and 35 yards a game. Wouldnt say thats coming into his own. Thats replacement level play. He wasnt trending up or down either. This year he has 3 catches for 32 yards total in three games.

Conley is a freakish athlete, as is Hill. Not as fast as Hill but one video put online during his pre draft workouts showed him jump over a car from a standstill. Just amazing.
