I don't doubt at all that a lot of that stuff happens... $500 million QB + coaches with egos. My Mahomes fan narrative was one of being really frustrated early in the season, throwing balls at the feet of receivers... and not having any trust in the offensive play calling could of course fit that narrative.
I wonder what happened between the Bills game and Bengals game though? All the talk about how quiet the headsets were at the end, and Kelce, Mahomes, and Hill figuring out shit on their own.... and then a week later, egos blow up?  |
They called their own plays and won the game. Maybe this pissed EB off. It was bad optics that he would not get a head coaching job- so took control of the Bengals game and choked.
