Watching his interview tonight on WJXT-4 on this very topic, I wonder how much, if any, of his regression this year was due to him losing the daily relationship and contact with Chad Henne. We all know he has been inconsistent thru pretty much all of his career, and this might be a bit of a stretch, but good relationships in the NFL carry a lot more weight than most outsiders would even know about. Of course, he played pretty well early for a couple of games this year, and certainly injuries had a huge effect on his play, but he bounced back pretty well last year in December after hitting a bit of a November slump. A veteran backup who wants to see you succeed is invaluable in those situations. Mahomes was interviewed in the pre-season and was raving about what a great mentor Henne was for him. Just speculatin....
