Also, They announced Mahomes is playing?
Reid started coaching the Chiefs in 2013. Eagles drafted Wentz in 2016.
I don’t think that shared path means much. [Reply]

Wentz would be fine. Reid is insanely good at putting together first half scripts around our backup QBs weakness. He did it for years with Chase Daniel and henne. Love the hell out of henne for what he meant to this franchise but wentz is way better. I think the formula wears off after a half and even into the second game. But I feel like Andy could get the job done
Of course he’s nowhere near Mahomes level. But I think he gives us a decent shot to win as a backup. No matter… Mahomes is probably gonna play and of course when he’s on the field our odds shoot way up [Reply]
The expectation is that Patrick Mahomes (ankle) is going to try and give it a go Saturday. Will he be 100%? obviously not. But the belief right now, and we'll see how the rest of the week plays out, is that he's going to play vs the #texans.

You don't have to look at X-rays or physically examine someone to know a treatment method for an injury that's constantly reoccurring. [Reply]

Could you get him to do a better job on this with Mahomes this year please? [Reply]
