Mahomes forced into unsustainable scramble-dependent role due to receiver deficiency.

The Chiefs offense has devolved into a quick-game or scramble-dependent system where Mahomes must create explosive plays with his mobility. The source notes this is not a sustainable style and puts too much burden on the quarterback, highlighting the team's lack of receiver talent to beat man coverage or win downfield and stretch defenses.
