From the episode

He was 0 for 4. Yeah, it was – we talked about this. It's so weird how he always overthrows Taequann Thornton on those shots. And it doesn't – she's pass game. I mean, it's crazy that they put up 31 and Mahomes didn't have to do anything other than scramble a little bit. So – I mean, their best play was a pivot route to Kelsey.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Mahomes went 0-for-4 under center vs. Denver; pass game not in rhythm despite 31 points.

Patrick Mahomes showed significant discomfort operating under center as a passer in Week 1 against Denver, going 0 for 4 on under-center throws. He consistently overthrows Taequan Thornton on deep shots from under center. Despite Kansas City's dominant 31-point output, Mahomes did not have to do much beyond scrambling; his best play was a pivot route to Travis Kelce that resulted in a 59-60 yard gain after a missed tackle. The pass game was not in rhythm under center, suggesting the Chiefs' passing attack may need to improve before facing tougher defenses.
