Fits the fanboy narrative that Mahomes and Reid can do no wrong.
Has the bonus of calling out woke media.
Author couldn't resist juicing it up by throwing in "we are blowing this game" by a third voice on the headset, knowing the appeal of the first two points will render the target audience credulous. [Reply]
This article really makes you think and has some interesting theories. Looking back at the championship game you have to rationalize about what makes the most sense. Do you really think that Mahomes threw the game or does it make more sense that there was friction between Mahomes and a certain coach? We all see how intense Mahomes is and his desire to totally dominate the game is unmatched. His demeanor and attitude in the second half was out of character and we all know that something happened at halftime to cause this change. If EB is the reason that the entire team lost their focus in the second half then there's no way EB can remain on the staff. I'd say that most of this article nails it about what occured and some of it is pure opinion but the bottom line is that EB has to go in order for the team to move forward. [Reply]
The supposed headset argument reminded me of the fake transcript of the final words of the Challenger astronauts:

The funniest part of the article to me was the whole Reid can’t overrule Bienemy on Play Calling per his contract. I mean, he’s the fucking Head Coach FFS :-):-):-):-):-) [Reply]
