For as much as people are going to bag on the turf in Phoenix, am I the only one that thought the track was pretty lousy last night?

Looked to me like Toney got hurt when he slipped. And I know I saw at least 2 big plays against McDuffie when McDuffie lost his footing. It just seemed like the grip was pretty poor last night.

But in my calculus for 'hero' I kinda consider the expectations of a player pretty heavily. And man, I just can't say enough about the game MVS had when absolutely everything fell to shit around him. And some of those plays were just damn clutch. Obviously the TD but that contorting long catch that I believe set up our first TD was so impressive and it happened right as the attrition was starting to set in.

That felt like a game we lose if he goes one more quarter; the patient had lost a lot of blood by that point. So MVS playing such a key role in building up that lead that allowed us to be in a position to make those critical plays to 'steal' it late just impresses the hell out of me.

I mean in NO world was there ever an expectation that he'd go out there and be the clear WR1 in a conference championship game and not only take on the responsibility but friggen thrive in it. Damn damn damn that was impressive. I'm so happy for that guy.

That's fair.

I do have to ask why you're running a jet sweep with him on 3rd and 1 (after throwing on 2nd and 1) when you know that he can't possibly be 100%.

I mean, why waste a bullet there? You know the guy's likely on a pitch count. That just seemed like an odd way to use a guy who you were really needing to nurse along by that point. Especially when JJSS and Toney had already gone down.

Toney was the most disappointing player last night. Kind of forgot how injury prone he was with all the plays he'd been making recently. Has legit superstar potential in this offense but just can't stay healthy.

Joe mother****ing Cullen.

He had everyone on this DL playing extremely well. Mike Danna was Burrows face a handful of times, Chris Jones owned, Frank Clark owned, Karlaftis had a sack as a QB hit and Dunlap had 2 QB hits.

He got the best out of these guys. Arguably the biggest move of the offseason

Because I wonder if that's not Watson out there running those routes if Lammons doesn't get claimed. At that point you still have to have a WR6 don't you? Given the questionmarks around Hardman?

Oh, and those WRs better get wheeled into the lockerroom, ideally in full body casts. How they gonna not go back out there, man? JJSS, Hardman and Toney all have some 'splaining to do, IMO.

I suspect Hardman is done for the year.

The answer is Mahomes.

Thread title should be changed to all non-Mahomes players.

Danna was damn good last night.

I think he's probably played his way out of one of those lost cost early extensions, but I sure wouldn't mind offering it to him. He's a really really solid rotational DE. Not sure he can hold up to starters reps but he just seems to always be in/around the play when he's in there.

There are a LOT of kudos to go around, but I'm going to side with Butker for two reasons:

(a) he hasn't had the best year

(b) how many times have we rued a kicker for ****ing it up? Especially in the playoffs. Props to him for being clutch when it mattered. We needed every kick yesterday.

The best part of this is that, this conversation wouldn't be happening today if there weren't A LOT of young players who could legitimately be listed in this list.

A lot of big plays by multiple guys. Pacheco makes an extra effort for an important first down, a couple of nice tips and INTs by a young secondary after Sneed goes down...

Offense: MVS. Been saying all season how baffled I am by the MVS haters

I don't get the MVS hate either. At all. He drops a gimme every now and then, but he gets it back by making a great catch. He's made some really good contested catches on deep balls.

This is the same hunch I'm feeling.

Stone Cold Chris Jones is going to take this game over and almost singlehandedly destroy their gameplan.
