You may have a point here. As a Vikings fan, I'm very familiar with the look of a QB who was just told by his coaches to play conservative, protect the ball, etc. and look absolutely terrible on the field.
It sounds like Patty wrongfully thought he had a TO left at the end of the half when he threw it to Hill with 5 seconds left. Regardless, it's a bad play/throw because the time ran out when Hill was tackled. I could see a scenario where Reid and the coaching staff reamed into Mahomes for that blunder and it knocked Patty out of his 1st half groove. Even before the 2nd half started it looked like Patty had a completely different attitude coming out of the locker room at halftime.
It'll be interesting to hear if anything leaks about what happened at halftime.
