It's listed as an Oblique injury, which doesn't sound very serious. Of course, if he takes a big hit to the lower rib area, or gets twisted around while running, or otherwise stresses his obliques, that could turn into something more.

I thought Florio was one of the sources? The story is written by some guy named Tim kelley?

Kelly was reporting what Florio said on his show. Florio said that he spoke to people within league circles that prefer Allen over Mahomes.

Nvm. Florio says he knows some people . . .

No, I don't think he's lying about anything; doesn't seem to be his style.

There are still plenty of dinosaurs left in the NFL.

He said he’ll be fine.

Beasley... not so sure.

They’re being very quiet about Beasley.

This is a league where people still hire Patriots assistants...let's not act like there are smart people on every team.

Odd. It's a knee injury, right? That should be pretty straightforward to diagnose.

I’m certainly not.

Is interesting though, some people think Mahomes is a HOF’er already, meanwhile people in league circles prefer Allen over him.

What's so interesting about that? The people in the latter group are clearly idiots.

Shows there is no real concensus yet.

Yes, like the Bills who passed on Mahomes so they could play with Nathan Peterman.

Or the Browns or Jets or Jags who passed on him. They are geniuses.

That's it. Florio is a Patriots guy. Don't know why, but just remembered it. He also is a Mangini fan.

I wouldn't be surprised if one of the sources was either Mangini or another Patriots employee/former employee.

And last season Mangini made a big deal out of Patrick's dislocated knee. He kept harping on how it showed that Mahomes was too fragile to play for long in the NFL. He even said that the 49ers DL would probably knock Patrick out of the SB, because 'Mahomes is injury-prone,' about a week before the game.

The Patriots way jackoffs are still badmouthing Brady after he won them all those Super Bowls and claiming it was all their genius and system.
