The Chiefs have insisted they’re willing to let Patrick Mahomes learn through his mistakes Scott Darling Jersey , because they think big plays are coming as well.

He proved them right on both counts in the first half against the Falcons Friday.

Mahomes lost track of the Falcons defense and threw a bad interception, but followed with a ridiculous 69-year touchdown pass to Tyreek Hill on the next possession.

You get the sense it’s going to be that kind of year for Mahomes and the Chiefs.

After a lackluster opener, Mahomes was 8-of-12 for 138 yards in his half of work against the Falcons. He also threw in 16 rushing yards, giving every indication of the potential they saw in him to trade a future first-rounder to get him, then to trade Alex Smith to clear the way.

New Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins knows he needs to be working right now.

But he’s also been around long enough to know this is the last chance he’s going to have for months to get any downtime.

Via Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune, Cousins acknowledged the challenge of walking into a new team full of new receivers Patric Hornqvist Jersey , with a new coordinator and a new playbook.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a bit like drinking through a firehose right now,鈥?Cousins said. 鈥淚 need to use the five or six weeks of the summer to go back. All the stuff I didn鈥檛 catch, go back through and see that I had starred this, I had check-marked this as something to go back to when we had time, rather than take time when we were so busy. I鈥檒l make a list, probably get on the phone with coach [John] DeFilippo or give coach [Kevin] Stefanski an email and just go through it all to get each question answered over the summer.鈥?/p>

But after six years in the league http://www.washingtonredskinsteamonline.com/rob-kelley-jersey , he’s also well aware of what happens when he does get back to work in late July.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a balance for me, and I鈥檝e had to learn this after playing the last few years,鈥?Cousins said. 鈥淟ast year we got to like Week Two, and because of how much I was grinding all camp and even in the summer, I felt like we were in Week 12. I couldn鈥檛 believe that we were only in Week Two because I had treated July and August like it was game day. You have to pace yourself a little bit.

“Because I feel a little behind the eight ball and am learning the offense, I do need to be in it every day Radim Vrbata Jersey , but there also needs to be a healthy balance of getting away, catching your breath, and getting a change of scenery, knowing that when we come back at the end of July we still have six more weeks before Week One. I鈥檒l definitely get away, relax, and also just stay in it every day for a few minutes so I don鈥檛 lose what I鈥檝e gained.鈥?/p>

Pacing himself will be vital Michael Irvin Jersey , because with the money the Vikings spent on him, they’re planning on keeping him busy well past the end of the regular season.
