BigDingus Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 They didn't need Mahomes much last time they played us. Of course it'd be better for them if he did play, but I don't think him being out just means the Chiefs will suddenly be worried. I'm sure McDermott will prepare the team as if he's playing anyway. Hopefully Frasier has something planned to stop Kelce & that run game. 1

There’s some gruesome posts in this thread about the guy’s health. Not cool 1

You literally can’t compare the recovery times anyway you cut it. I realize that. My point was just because he looked woozy immediately afterwards doesn’t mean anything. Josh was unconscious. Mahomes looked fine jogging up the tunnel (which I’m actually surprised they let him jog immediately afterwards). He may already be symptom free, he may have symptoms tomorrow, he may have symptoms for weeks irrespective of what it looked like immediately afterwards. 1

You don't think their superstar QB being out would worry them? It's crazy to refer back to our first game. They had all those easy rush yards because we played a specific defense to counter Mahomes. We're not doing that against Chad Henne. It still won't be a gimme, just ask the Browns, but I'm pretty sure we would be favored. 4

These folks have full time jobs outside of this. Moreover, most do it to be close to NFL and the sport not the fame or fortune. My point about the consulting fee was in response to the poster who was insinuating they’re somehow in the league’s pocket and clearing athletes before they’re ready. I was making the point, or trying to at least, that no one was going to endanger their livelihood for that fee. 1

Wilson didn't hit him with his helmet and it sure doesn't look like Mahomes's helmet even hit the turf...very strange. His face mask hit the ball.
vanhalen26 Posted January 18, 2021 Posted January 18, 2021 He’s been using his phone and tweeted. If it was a bad concussion, using a screen would be uncomfortable and likely banned by the doctor. 1

There is the accelleration/decelleration injury. Essentially the brain is of a consistency of soft butter and it is inside a rock hard skull. Bad things can happen without a direct hit.
