He doesn't look pretty when he's running, but he is fast and really shifty. He's also a big guy at almost 230 pounds he never seems to take a hard hit. Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson look pretty when they run and are probably faster but I think Maholmes is the more effective runner. He showed that last night making the big plays with his legs when the game was on the line.
It's all about the results..He doesn't look pretty when he's running, but he is fast and really shifty. He's also a big guy at almost 230 pounds he never seems to take a hard hit.

I honestly think it's the awkward gait, the hesitation, pausing and spinning, etc... that makes him so effective.He doesn't look pretty when he's running, but he is fast and really shifty.

I'm not a Chiefs fan but I enjoy watching a really talented athlete do it his way. One of these games I think he's going to do a Matrix pass where he cartwheels and throws upside down.Yesterday I read the best characterization of his running style - the pundit said "and then Mahomes started running around like he's trying not to spill his beer".
That's when the magic happens.
Much of what he does that seems so "out there" comes directly from other sports. Look at the way he throws, the way whips the football with his arm - you could photoshop a baseball in his hand and it wouldn't look odd at all.I'm not a Chiefs fan but I enjoy watching a really talented athlete do it his way.

I believe he’s the best QB in the NFL at throwing from awkward angles. Allen can do it too, but not like MahomesMahomes has a crablike scuttle and he is very elusive and deceptively fast. Add that to his ability to throw from any angle and he's a nightmare to defend against.
QBs with happy feet haven't ever lasted very long.....Mahomes keeps it up, and he shortens his career by at least five years.He doesn't look pretty when he's running, but he is fast and really shifty.

I really love the Allen/Mahomes rivalry. I think it will be good for football. They're both amazing athletes and seem like genuinely decent people.I believe he’s the best QB in the NFL at throwing from awkward angles. Allen can do it too, but not like Mahomes
He runs the 40 in 4.8 seconds and the average NFL QB 40 is 4.93. So he's deceptively fast and very shifty. He was probably a good flag football player.He doesn't look pretty when he's running, but he is fast and really shifty. He's also a big guy at almost 230 pounds he never seems to take a hard hit.

Allen hasn’t played well last couple of games, but yeah, there are certain throws that only those two can make. Allen and Mahomes are tier one qb’s in the nfl.I really love the Allen/Mahomes rivalry.

Yep. That's gotta be on the mind of the coaching staff, if not Mahomes.QBs with happy feet haven't ever lasted very long.....Mahomes keeps it up, and he shortens his career by at least five years.
Running QBs don't last for sure. I don't know that I would call him a running QB, he's just really effective when he does run.QBs with happy feet haven't ever lasted very long.....Mahomes keeps it up, and he shortens his career by at least five years.
So was Tarkenton.....But he ran sideways waiting for a WR to freelance and get open, instead of going verticcal and risk getting low-bridged by someone 100 lbs heavier.Running QBs don't last for sure. I don't know that I would call him a running QB, he's just really effective when he does run.
Fran was running for his life. They didn't have all these rules protecting QBs back then. But he was always looking downfield waiting for a receiver to break open.So was Tarkenton.....But he ran sideways waiting for a WR to freelance and get open, instead of going verticcal and risk getting low-bridged by someone 100 lbs heavier.
