You didn't see Jimmy G take the 49ers to the Super Bowl five years ago only throwing the ball 5 yards down field? Haha
Surprisingly Mahomes only averaged 7 yards per pass play last year but he has the threat of the deep ball and the scramble that opens up a lot of short over the middle for him.
Jimmy G was what I would call a game manager. Just like AJ McCarron was at Alabama. He threw the ball to keep the defense off-guard but the run/option game is what was the bread and butter. Bengals to me are built to be a pass first team and if you do that you gotta be able to chunk the ball.
That is wild about Mahomes though... Granted he also had to struggle with WR unable to catch a ball so that had to def hurt any sort of deep pass unless it was to Kelce lol

Yeah the Chiefs won because of D and Mahomes mastery last year not because they were an offensive force.
