As the ongoing NFL season deepens, so deep becomes its storyline and earnings potential, with the Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes’s performance skimming in the high and low zones. Even though Mahomes has been the key to pushing the team to a 2-0 record, one has to note that his game has been subpar.
Most troubling, Mahomes has already registered three interceptions on his passes, which is an uncharacteristic blunder for a player of his caliber, an ex-MVP. But it’s worth noting that a loss is nothing new for Mahomes since he has staged plenty of comebacks in the past and continues to be ranked among the best quarterbacks in the league.
In the wake of the Chiefs looking to play the Atlanta Falcons, fans’ imaginations have been re-ignited by a throwback clip featuring one of the preseason matches played in 2018. This video presents Mahomes' bomb to Tyreek Hill from 69 yards, for which the NFL fans witnessed impressive arm strength and accuracy.
Mahomes' Miraculous Throw
The play is without doubt, indispensable, from Mahomes mind Joseph Mendoza arched a shot, threw one, which travelled perhaps seventy yards to locate Hill. Beyond the maelstrom of ardent greetings, commendation, and laughter he encounters in the limelight, these equal portions of craziness and orchestrated boredom come particularly whenever he is deep up in the flow, rising high up the thumbs.
As we move towards the confrontation at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, there is also concern whether Mahomes can replicate that performance. While Tyreek Hill is no longer part of the roster, the Chiefs have a new acquisition, which is also an asset, Xavier Worthy, who is nimble and quick in sprint-offs.
But throwing such a pass could be an uphill task, as it has been shown. This year, the Chiefs have changed the game plan and are utilizing I pads more for the shorter passes. This change is in response to some defensive strategies, such as the two-high safety look, which several teams have used to counteract Mahomes’ throwing capacity.
Given his propensity to alter the game dramatically, the Falcons will probably try to set the defense deliberately to prevent him from making such deep passes. This Sunday Night football clash will be fireworks, focusing on whether Mahomes will be able to throw another deep touchdown pass this time.
But as the game progresses against the Falcons, the question still remains: Can Patrick Mahomes throw another spectacular long ball pass again?
