So much to love about the Chiefs and Mahomes for neutrals - and even supporters of any other team (rAFC West notwithstanding) - they give you exactly what you want to see. That said, I think the Eagles will be too much for them in 2 weeks time. They are so strong everywhere.

[@velder22]

Joe burrow had a bad game, he threw two picks it could have easily been four pics. A couple of those sacks he could have thrown the ball away and he took the. If mahomes would have had a game like that last night everybody would be talkin so much s*** about him today

[@mjnelson4151]

They’d be crushing him right now and proclaiming Burrow the new Brady. They didn’t want him to win again. They like certain quarterbacks like Brady, Burrow, Allen, Herbert, you get the idea.

[@lakeozarkrei3767]

Exactly 💯... getting ridiculous.

[@johnbuck9701]

Mahomes praised God for his healing in his post game speech. Nuff said

[@kcnoise]

The Bengals are going to have to live with less when they are faced with paying their guys. The media is missing that.

[@anthonyperkins8961]

After listening to all the gushing over Burrow for a week, I understand why people don't want to hear about Mahomes like that. Go Chiefs!

That was a penalty every time I have seen it. He didn't push him out of bounds he pushed him when he was already out of bounds and that is always called. He didn't even try to pull up he SHOVED Mahomes. It is a penalty. Period.

Even though I don't like Mahomes personality i got to admit he's really awesome. Love your show guys. Pure class all of you. Greetings from Mexico.

[@tylerprince3496]

People keep saying that pushing mahomes when he's out of bounds will get called every time but as someone who's watched every snap of mahomes since the chiefs drafted him, no, that isn't always called. I've seen him go out of bounds and get shoved into benches, heaters, those big fans, people, and most of the time there's no call. I'm actually surprised when it does get called. But of course no one cares or believes me when I say that because he's a star so of course it gets called all the time. Trust me, it doesn't.

[@ckmoore101]

Its not that he was shoved and flew into the benches, its that the contact didn't happen until AFTER Mahomes had already stepped out of bounds. Thats the difference. And when that happens, they ALWAYS throw that flag.

[@markmcgonigle]

It is pronounced Mar-Kwez Valdez Scantling. He doesn't like it when his name is mispronounced. At his post game presser he started by saying, "If you mispronounce my name, I will skip your question." LOL

[@Artcollecta]

I’ve watched about every Chiefs game in the last 20 years and anyone complaining about officiating helping the Chiefs can 🍼. KC has been taken out of so many games including the playoffs by questionable calls and poor, seemingly biased officiating; that I consider anything leaning our way as a historical make-up call. That being said, the game was officiated adequately. Quit crying…. We have been told this multiple times, it’s your turn.

[@russpoush]

you compared QBR to Passer Rating. Completely different.
