purplemonster Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 This playground ball is not working today that's for sure. Some might be him but I don't think his receivers are getting open as much so he got used to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinishTheDrill Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Spent a lot of draft capital on Mahomes (2) Cousins (8) and Tua (6) in a deep superflex league. Didnt pay off this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatDude Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 It looked like he missed a lot of underneath or check down opportunities… and just kept trying to push for a big play down the field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday was a well deserved KC loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butkus Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 (edited) In a Superflex, Mahomes was my #1 pick and has no doubt underperformed to a wasted/ 12th round equiv. pick level for me (Tyreek Hill taken right after my pick). My theory on Patrick's woes this year is while KC was able to cobble together enough WR production married with usual Kelce magic last year, 1) Kelce is not able to focus as much this year with all the Taylor Swift attention and 2) the KC WRs are, in a word, putrid (save a promising rookie season from R. Rice). Scantling and Toney are total headcase busts. Add that to a KC offensive line that seems below average, and Mahomes is in the Jordon Love FFL tier this year. It just is what it is. In my case, I've somehow made it into my Championship (Thanks Amari Cooper!) in my main big money league despite Mahomes. And I can't really sit him. So, for this last week 17, I hope he catches some old magic this week against CIN. But I'm expecting his usual 6-10 points for me this week.

1fastdoc Posted December 27, 2023 Author Share Posted December 27, 2023 Rice is talented but definitely needs more experience. The O line was never great but Mahomes was good enough to scramble and get accurate passes out. Not sure what happened yesterday but they were overthrown, underthrown and sideway thrown. And Kelce, like Gronk, was always a formidble player that could make plays. But unlike Gronk, Kelce decided to become a media hog while still playing. The guy absolutely doesn't have his A game this year, probably too tired from flights to Hollywood and banging Swift. She's the NFL Yoko Ono.

He seems to always be in the right spot for the dump-offs from Mahomie. He did look bad against the Raiders. They barely blitzed and seemed to be up in his business really fast.

stevegrab Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Mahomes was way off in that game, some horrible passes. Is Kelce slowing down, or "distracted by Taylor", probably a bit. Are the Wars less talented, definitely. Are they missing McKinnon catching passes sure. Maybe they go one and done in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
