REST THAT MAN! 🗣️ Stephen A. calls for Patrick Mahomes to sit in Week 16 👀 | First Take

I’m convinced they keep Molly to keep engagement in comments. Half the comments telling her to shut up

[@jonjetmore4018]

100% correct lol All these people commenting about her are not only watching the video, but then commenting and generating a shitton of interaction. ESPN will never let Molly go unless she does something to get herself fired.

Agree, and I'd really like to see how Carson is playing these days. He's been a great teammate, by all accounts, cheering on Mahomes and the guys without a trace of ego, I would like to see him get a chance while Mahomes rests. 3 games in 10 days is ridiculous enough.

Disagree. Mahomes was a full participant, no brace, no limp, and it's a mild high ankle sprain. It's less worse than the high ankle sprain against Jacksonville.

Molly seriously needs to go. She’s there to moderate not be a part of the discussion.
