I watched wentz for two years behind a bad offensive line. I can't unsee that...He's worse than Mac Jones when the protection is bad. Texans and their bad highschool offense could win this by a touchdown. [Reply]

:-) Right? Reid even admitted he would've played if the game were closer yesterday. He's playing. [Reply]

Yep. Reid said he could have gone back out there. They just didn't need him. They're trying to lock in the #1 seed. Unless he can't walk, he's playing. [Reply]

Don't get it. Mahomes was acting like he couldn't even bear weight against the Broncos. [Reply]
The Chiefs looked like a team yesterday that showed up with a bad gameplan, playing a noon game on the road against a bad team in between a division rivalry matchup and a home game against a young hotshot contender, playing the first game of a 3-games-in-11 days stretch, after not having a bye since week 5, after winning back-to-back Super bowls and playing all the extra games that come with that.
Read: They looked exhausted.
They need a spark. They need to dial in the game plan. We’ve seen it before.
And yes, Mahomes needs to play better. Al the pressure is in his head a bit. And I don’t think he throws the ball well in wet conditions. [Reply]
Gotta hope Hollywood can be that spark. I know he’s not Rice but that skill set could be so helpful in alleviating our current issues which are getting open quickly, Mahomes trusting the WR with anticipation, and even deep ball tracking. [Reply]
Just sucks man. My kid wanted to see Mahomes and experience Arrowhead for the first time. Buy tickets for this game yesterday morning. Guy gets hurt 5 hours later.
This is why I don’t go to games. Some stupid shit always happens to make the experience worse when I do [Reply]

It was definitely a "Get out there, win, get the hell out of there" mentality.
But damn man....we just keep having these things. I really hope Hollywood helps the offense be more explosive. They need it. [Reply]

He will play, IMO.
He’d rather gut this one out and Christmas and see if they can’t get a full sequential 3-4 week rest before the divisional round game. [Reply]
