Former NFL scout Matt Manocherian (@mattmano) of Sports Info Solutions and football analytics pioneer Aaron Schatz (@FO_ASchatz) of Football Outsiders (@fboutsiders) devote a full episode to Patrick Mahomes after the Chiefs locked up their franchise QB with a mega-contract earlier this week. The duo discusses what the contract means (1:46), what separates him from other QBs (6:28), if there is an aspect of his game that has been unexpected (10:07), where he stands in terms of injury risk (12:46), what’s the best way to try to defend him (15:44), which Chiefs receiver has the most upside (21:32), how good the offensive line is (25:03), the impact of rookie RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (28:33), and if his stardom means anything beyond his on-field performance (32:52).
