I say the drama starts his first offensive posession. Expand I refuse to watch his theatrics, college football playoffs are on at the same time so I have a distraction 1 1 Quote

Expand Mahomes has no more of a high ankle sprain than I do. If he did he would not be practicing much less playing. He has an ouchy and he maximized for effect his minimal pain because he loves the attention. I have worse injuries playing a round of golf. He is a *****. Edited December 19, 2024 by FLFan 1 1 Quote
frostbitmic Posted December 19, 2024 Posted December 19, 2024 (edited) In my fantasy playoffs I face him this week, he isn't even listed as questionable. I'm hoping the Texans Defense forces him to do a lot of running Saturday. Edited December 20, 2024 by frostbitmic Quote
Goin Breakdown Posted December 20, 2024 Posted December 20, 2024 I'm willing to guess he never even had a high ankle sprain. He hurt his foot and they had to say something to make it sound worse as to why he left the game. We all feel so bad for him and then applaud his strength and will to fight. Blah. Anyone else is out weeks. You can't tell me he's "good to go after a week of practicing". 1 Quote

But he absolutely will be milking this thing out lol. Ill never forget the eagles superbowl- He looks like he can barely walk after a 3 and out, then he scrambles for 10-20 yard runs in a full sprint all game long after lol Edited December 20, 2024 by BillsFan130 1 Quote

I guess I just never bought into him being hurt. I just seem to remember whenever anyone had a high ankle, they're done for a couple weeks or so. 1 Quote

Thrivefourfive Posted December 20, 2024 Posted December 20, 2024 He gets folded up like nobody’s business. Lucky him. Quote
That's No Moon Posted December 20, 2024 Posted December 20, 2024 Houston is second in the league in sacking the QB. Mahomes with any lesser degree of mobility than usual will take more hits than usual and his OL still sucks. Next Wednesday he plays the Steelers who also get after the QB quite a lot. The week after that he plays Denver who leads the league in sacks and sacked him 4 times and hit him 9 times in their first meeting. This is all good. 3 3 3 Quote
Playoffs? Posted December 20, 2024 Posted December 20, 2024 Mahomes loves to limp around and then magically he’s fine again. I forgot the game this season, but he was ‘hurt’ down near the end zone… 2 guys from his medical staff had to literally carry walk him off the field. You would’ve thought something was broken. Then he just pops back out there and runs around like it never happened. Dude loves some attention! Meanwhile, Allen quietly gets x-rays after a game where he never showed an injury, steps up to the podium, and says ‘I’m fine.’ 1 Quote

TheWei44 Posted December 20, 2024 Posted December 20, 2024 Let's just wait and see how all of this plays out. For all we know, Mahomes is more hurt than he is letting on to. And it is of course true that no one should underestimate KC in the playoffs. That said, the Bills seem very hot and dialed in at the moment and perhaps more so than in years past. If/when we do play the Chiefs in the playoffs, I expect our D to get after Mahomes and, as surprising as it may seem, Von will be a big part of that pressure. I like our chances against the Chiefs.

As far as I know, Thuney has only played OG, so let’s see how this experiment holds up over a longer period. I think if he was fully capable of playing LT at a high level he would’ve requested the position change himself. LTs make far more money than guards. Quote
