    The Chiefs are very well coached and will survive this stretch with 2-1 record...... if not 3-0.

    Only if their sub QB can manage to get by -and- they continue to play 2-5 teams like Denver.

    Oh week 8 coming up and if Mahomes is out much beyond 3 weeks or the season all bets are off.  Coaching helps but isn't everything.

    About 1 pm CBS Sports.....    https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/patrick-mahomes-knee-injury-projected-recovery-timetable-as-explained-by-medical-expert

    An orthopedic knee surgeon offers a look at what Mahomes is up against, and the Chiefs are right to be nervous

    PW: Early reports are that Mahomes suffered a dislocated patella, but that there wasn't a fracture, but an MRI is scheduled to be performed as early as tonight or Friday morning. What ligaments are involved in keeping the patella itself in place, that are now at risk of being strained or torn?

    Dr. Rodney Benner: Yes, the video shows a member of the medical staff extending the knee and pushing the patella back into place from a dislocated position. The patella is held in a centralized location by ligament structures on both sides, medially (inside of the knee) and laterally (outside of the knee). In order for the patella to dislocate laterally, which is the direction it always goes, the medial retinaculum and medial patellofemoral ligament have to tear. An MRI scan will assess a few things. It can visualize the medial soft tissue and assess the extent of ligament tearing. Also, when the patella dislocates, a specific pattern of bone bruising is visible on the medial side of the femur and the lateral side of the trochlea, which is the groove on the end of the femur where the patella tracks. 

    These bruises come about because those surfaces impact one another during the dislocation. Sometimes a piece of cartilage and possibly bone can break off and float loose inside the knee. This will be visible on MRI as well.........MUCH MORE IN THE LINK.........

    It appears he should be back in 3 weeks or so.

    If he can skate by only losing 3 weeks or possibly the next game before the bye then KC would luck out on the best case scenario.  These guys are highly paid assets and get the best care out there that money can buy plus are well conditioned athletes and do make remarkable comebacks.

    I just had a pretty involved hip surgery on September 16 which went better than expected by a few weeks and just yesterday started rehab which is expected to last maybe 2-4 weeks......and I'm 69 and not 24. Probably in total better than 4-6 weeks better than my April surgery.  It's amazing what they can do with a good surgeon and the right setting.

    We will see who gets back first Patrick Mahomes or me.  😆

    I'm sure all Kansas City is waiting.

    Time frame is 3 - 8 weeks now. 3 sure seems fast. This would really shift power and open things up in the AFC.

    Timing feels good to me, gum...

    KC has a quality backup... problem is that even with Mahommes playing their warts were already showing.

    Should still sneak into the playoffs, but I don't see them going deep... even with Mahommes back.

    5-2, take 3 losses next four weeks and that makes 6-5. AFC West division is going to be cheap this year, they could probably still leading it after the bye. I'd take that.

    The Alabama quarterback got a high ankle sprain and is expected to miss 1-2 weeks -but- these injuries can linger or possibly easily get reinjured and require a lot more time........edit add, do they maybe try to fit these injury recoveries into the team schedules???

    The 1-2 week timeframe for Tagovailoa’s recovery fits into a convenient stretch for the Tide, at least. Up next for the team is 2-5 Arkansas, then a bye week. The team can afford little complications though, as a date against No. 2 LSU that could determine not just the winner of the SEC West, but a College Football Playoff spot is only three weeks away.

    Watching the QB class of 2020 sort itself out is going to be interesting as hell...

    Yes with the aging big future first ballot HOF quarterbacks retiring any time now. 

    Some were calling the rookie class of 2018 the best since 1983 does that still stand?   (probably!)
