He's gonna play, all the mental gymnastics was dumb.

MAHOMES CONFIRMS THAT THE INJURY AGAINST THE JAGS IN 2022 WAS WAY WORSE!!..JUST LIKE I'VE BEEN SAYING!! LFG :evil:

Forces the Texans to watch Carson Wentz tape.

I knew it all along!! LFG!!

These bionic ankles lived near you?

I am more worried it would be like the injury versus the jags in 2019. That seemed even more minor than this week. A few weeks into that injury he was struggling. But I trust the med staff if they truly think mahomes can go. I still think the Pittsburgh quick turnaround will be way harder than we want to admit

Wow. The least shocking turn of events ever.

It’s ridiculous… the NFL should have played these two Saturday games on Thursday to give almost a week of recovery time before the Christmas Day games.

The 2019 one was against the Colts. And tbh I think that one was worse than this latest one too tbh. The good thing is Pat fully recovered in 2019 and we won the superbowl. The 2022 one was still bothering Pat in the offseason all the way into camp cause it was a severe one. A mild one usually takes a week or two to fully recover from from what I gather.

LFG!!

Well, he recovered because he popped his knee which gave his ankles a few weeks to rest. He looked really rough against Indy and Houston in the 4th where you can tell his ankle really bothered him. But no matter… at the very least if we can clinch quickly we can get him the rest that he needs. I’d rather do it on the front end, but we will end up fine this way too.

Chris jones nailed it when he said the nfl needs a second bye week. And this and European travel games are exactly the kinds of ways to use it.

The one positive is that Steelers are playing twice in 4 days as well.
