At the end of the KC game the question will be should have Mahomes started or should have he been taken out of the game sooner.

Dude is amazing so I’m not gonna say he can’t. But I am gonna say that he truly is an alien from outer space if he can still be 80% of the real Mahomes on a fresh high ankle sprain. He’s a magician but a big piece of that is his mobility in being able to extend plays.

First half he'll look off, then he'll get shot up in the lockerroom and play a great 2nd half. Bengals better get a nice lead and stay aggressive.

He’s gonna take the shot 2 hours before the game. Once he takes the shot, he can’t take another one for days.

He threw for 440+ yards and 4 TD's on a high ankle sprain 1 week removed last time he had that injury. Not quite the same to be fair, but it's a pretty terrible idea to doubt any version of Mahomes until proven otherwise.

If I was a Chiefs fan, I’d be rationalizing and telling myself the same thing on Friday before the AFC championship game too.

In that case it'll be wearing off too early. Packers waited until halftime with Rodgers. Maybe he was trying to avoid the shot all together.

Fair enough. I suppose I've seen this bit from Mahomes enough times where I am gonna need to see it before I believe he is compromised.
I don’t blame you. It’s time to be a fan and being a fan means bringing that hope. Shit, I’m not willing to say the guy can’t do it. We haven’t seen “can’t do it” from Pat Mahomes ever:

The dude is great ...but we have to at least admit he is not an X-men.

The ankle sprain is going to be a problem and there is no way the Bengals are going to let Kelce roam free all day like last week.

The freaking Jaguars made it look like Kelce's uniform was made out of blend of Asbestos & Anthrax

Kinda think it's the opposite. Chiefs generally look like the better team in the first half but then the second half kicks in the Bengals start exploiting mismatches.

Bengals and Eagles have the best rosters. Chiefs and Niners are here because they have great leadership and run solid organizations.

That said, if the Bengals oline sucks then they're going home
