Mahomes is currently 253/377 on the season so far. The Chiefs have had 26 drops on the season. That means that 21% of Mahomes' incompletions have been drops. (alien.top)

Hypothetical stats:

  • His current completion percentage is 67.1%. If every dropped ball had been caught, his completion percentage would be 74% which would be 4% better than any other starting QB (Brock Purdy at 70%) in the league.

  • If the Chiefs had the average amount of dropped balls (11) instead of the most (26), Mahomes completion percentage would be 71% for best in the league.

Yeah sure, except you'd have to then adjust the completion % of every other QB to account for drops as well to make this comparison even remotely meaningful.
