Hypothetical stats:

  • His current completion percentage is 67.1%. If every dropped ball had been caught, his completion percentage would be 74% which would be 4% better than any other starting QB (Brock Purdy at 70%) in the league.

  • If the Chiefs had the average amount of dropped balls (11) instead of the most (26), Mahomes completion percentage would be 71% for best in the league.

    Now do the same for every other qb in the league. Purdy would probably be at like 75% at least if it wasn’t for drops

    Mahomes is getting the Mac Jones special. Horrible WRs play and separation. Should have paid Tyreek

    I thought Dak’s WRs let him down last season, but this is whole new level. There were so many strikes last night that my grandmother could’ve caught with her oven mitts.

    Take away all the completions and see how good he is THEN!

    Unfortunately, the drops statistical doesn’t take into consideration he’s a bottom third QB in terms of on target%, despite being bottom 10 in IAY/PA

    What is amazing to me about Mahomes is how effortless his throws look - even his long throws. Rodgers - as a counter example - always looked to me like he was exerting in his throws. But Mahomes looks like he is handing someone a grocery bag filled with popcorn - but really it was a dart thrown 40 yards down field.

    FYI: Unless I missed something, this stat ignores drops by Purdy’s targets, if any.
