You ever notice that no one ever criticizes Mahomes? At the most, it's "He had a bad game, but..." It's like his early success inoculated him, so, like Brady, he is out of bounds. Thou shalt not criticize the Holy One.

Is this like another top QB has been “immunized”?

He is horrible with ball protection 

 

One of the worst imo

He has a ton of dropped INT's too. I don't know what it is about his throws that makes it hard for defenders to catch it. He should have way more INT's.

One of his tendencies due to his self confidence is to keep rolling back and back and back thinking he’ll escape.  If they contain him we could have huge losses from the LOS.  I’ve seen him do it before like the Bucs SB and others.  The key with Von and GROOT, are contain those edges, and Oliver and Phillips penetrate up the middle so he keeps going back and back.

 

Jones and Settle set the interior with lots of plugging gaps so the RB’s have nowhere to run up the middle.

 

This game is very winnable.  It will be a freakin nail biter from minute 1-60 or longer if we go to overtime.  
 

35-31 Bills!

Winning a Super Bowl and being consistently good will do that for you. 🤷‍♂️

Right, but it doesn't make it less annoying. Unless it's your guy who's untouchable. :)

Bills win the Super Bowl this year, Josh should absolutely be in this category with how he's played these past three seasons.

The vast majority of the media has him there already.  I think a big chunk people just love to think the Bills are picked on, it is not true with Allen anymore.  There were a lot of detractors for the first few seasons of Allen's career.  The career stats favor Mahomes by a lot, last three years its closer but how do you break the tie?  Head to head in playoffs? Super bowls?  Just win the Super Bowl!  That is all that is left to do.

They have both been starters for 5 years.  Mahomes has 27 fumbles, Allen 43.  No I don't wish the Bills had Mahomes, it's just the numbers from PFR.

In two different interviews this week Von discussed the bad roughing the passer calls. He said the way he avoids it is to always go for the ball. He's not looking to kill the QB, but to get a strip/sack/fumble. Hopefully this is the mindset of all of the Bills' defenders this week. Contain Mahomes in the pocket and go for that ball. Maybe they can get Patrick to cough one up.

This is also how QBs like Allen, Mahomes, Jackson get away.  They were failed to be wrapped up because the defender was going for the football.
