The Facts: Mahomes threw another interception at Chiefs practice Thursday, with safety Daniel Sorensen making the pick. That’s eight in seven training camp practices for the Mahomes. Still, HC Andy Reid said he wasn’t concerned about the number of interceptions. “I told you at the beginning of camp I don’t care about all that stuff," Reid said. “I want him to test the offense. ... If you don’t have the intestinal fortitude to go test it you’re going to be one of those quarterbacks who checks it down every time. That’s not what it’s all about."
Diehards Line:
Reid continued: "The great thing about Pat is that he never makes the same mistake twice. It doesn’t happen. ... When he does make a mistake he comes back and he can talk to you about it. He’s done nothing but get better and better as we go and he’s got a load on him here. ..." The Chiefs have been consistent when it comes to not making too much of any errors Mahomes makes on the practice field as they’re an inevitable part of the education that he needs to absorb this year. As Profootballtalk.com suggested, it won’t be quite as easy to stick with that line of thinking if the mistakes are still piling up a month from now, but no one’s hitting anything close to a panic button in Kansas City now.
