If you are using Mahomes as a comparison, then every other QB in the NFL is a game manager.  

Thats basically what cam said.  Game changers are like 4-5 players, he listed Mahomes, Jackson, Burrow, Allen and Rodgers.  The rest are varying degrees of game managers, knowing how to get the ball in the hands of the playmakers.

I would be absolutely sick to my stomach if it was the Panthers losing like that. Wow. 

I don't hate the Cheifs or anything, I just wanted to see someone else win lol. 

Don't we play them next year? yeesh

The crazy thing is I don't know if ANYONE knew who Patrick Mahomes was before he was drafted outside of Texas Tech fans. One day I would really like to hear/see the in depth story of how Mahomes was scouted on and ultimately picked by the Cheifs.

You're the HC & in OT. You win the coin toss against a proven SB HC.

You choose to take the ball first. Means you need to score a TD & play safe defense or score a FG & play aggressive defense.

You defer & can play standard defense knowing you will coach to win on offense & have a possible out if you come up short.

Shanahan lost this SB when the heat was turned up. He wasn't prepared for a playoff OT coin toss decision. Called it like a regular season game.

Wilks went to his old ways, in fact Shanahan called a timeout to get Wilks to get their D outta cover zero/zone cloud when KC had the ball in OT.

49ers offense was bad the entire game.

 

Expecting Wilks to save them the entire game + overtime was asking for trouble.

 

Purdy is a game manager.

Purdy threw for what? Like 17 yards for nearly half the game when the Niners forgot they could run the ball? They tried to lean on him and in the process they let the Chiefs back in the game.

He's playing a tough D. 

 

Didn't Mahomes have a similar drought in the middle of this game?

Purdy was okay, a bit better than I expected as I figured KC's D would force some really bad decisions/throws. Purdy was not asked to do much at all and had some missed throws but no turnovers and overall solid. He did impress me honestly, but he didn't do anything today to shed the game manager label.

      Steelers Trade WR Pickens to the Cowboys

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I wonder if the Steelers are setting themselves up for a tank year to get a QB? Trading talented head case Pickens, rumors that TJ Watt is on the trading block, that dumpster fire of a QB room, etc. It sure doesn't look like they're trying to win next year.

      And this is how the proverbial ‘window’ is created. You go 2 CONSECUTIVE drafts where you have to hit on your first 2 picks, but you also strike gold on a few later round guys as well. Over the course of a couple years, you’ve loaded the team up with 5+ studs (on rookie contracts) who raise the level of play of everyone around them. If there is a franchise QB in place already, a legacy is now possible.  The TIMING of hitting on the right kind of talent is crucial. Hitting on a stud here and there every few years actually HURTS the team. Just by their high level of play, the team may win 2+ games they had no business winning, and really screw up draft position. Now the team is stuck in draft purgatory, constantly missing out on a top 5 pick.  This team is close to having the must have spots filled. QB (controversial), LT (controversial), WR, center (TBD), edge, DT and corner. These are the spots the real contenders are deep at.  Draft teachable, high motor, healthy 5 star performers from top 15 schools who show up to play every Saturday and play like they actually love the game. Just imagine the boost that hitting on 2 stud edge guys AND an LT over the course of 2 years.  Stop this dumbass wasted 2nd round pick from eastern Idaho state tweener project safety who had 1 good year after coming back from a season ending knee injury, but he impressed at the combine…. And this is exactly what this draft was.
