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.

Isn’t this what happens when you get paid $50m a year? The salary cap has to come from somewhere. At least they have a decent O-line to protect him so he can wait, scramble and throw it to Kelce.

Or maybe the drops is a reversion to the mean? His past receivers have made him look good ala Purdy /s
