Patrick Mahomes is facing unprecedented pressure this season, having been sacked 35 times already, surpassing his previous career high. The Kansas City Chiefs' offensive line struggles, including three different left tackles, have contributed to this issue. Mahomes acknowledges his role in the sacks, admitting he sometimes holds onto the ball too long.
As the Chiefs prepare for a critical game against the Cleveland Browns, Mahomes emphasizes the need to adapt and utilize a quick passing game to mitigate pressure. Coach Andy Reid and offensive coordinator Matt Nagy note Mahomes' growth and maturity as a quarterback, suggesting he is learning to balance his desire for explosive plays with the need for efficiency.
