I'm just saying that I don't know that the sit/start decision actually impacts it much. Mahomes hasn't been winning games with his arm. He's been moving around and making plays. Sometimes he's just flat been running the ball to close these out. Well if he can't do that against Texas, I don't see him as being any more or less likely to win that game than Wentz. If the offensive line is the horrid shit-show that's been alleged, then Wentz is actually likely to be MORE mobile than Mahomes and can likely more closely approximate what Mahomes has done to this point than PM could on 1 leg. And if the OL isn't...well then Wentz can actually probably run the offense better than PM has done of late while he's been seeing ghosts and moving himself into pressure. I just don't think the QB decision will ultimately determine the outcome against Houston, that's all. It's come down to the defense and a couple of critical offensive plays that I don't think Wentz is any less likely to make than a compromised Mahomes is.

Let’s talk about the Texans

A lot of people don’t comprehend how razor thin our run was last year. Since 2018, teams that score 17 or fewer points in the playoffs are 4-28. We won on the road in a championship game doing that. You have to go back to the 2000 Ravens the last time a team won their conference championship with scoring less than 20 points when they won scoring 16 points. |

No, it really cannot and will not get any worse than that. The Chiefs had 1 legitimate drive the entire day on Sunday. The rest was just short field stuff that we can't count on most weeks. We had FIFTEEN drives on Sunday and got 21 points. Araiza had nine punts. A terrible team punts 5 teams most games. On average you're looking at about 3.5/gm. I mean the floor CAN'T be much lower than the shit-fest we saw on Sunday. So no, I have a hard time believing we'll be any worse with Wentz.

This team has been getting by scoring around 20 PPG. If Wentz drops that by even three points, a win becomes a loss.

I'd be careful...something is off with that.
What does Vegas know that we dont...I can assure you that the NFL doesnt want KC resting starters in the final week. I wouldn't touch this game... There is a good chance..if KC gets HFA ..that the Texans are their opponent in the divisional. Certainly would drive ratings...right? What has Houston done to warrant a 5 point road cushion (home team gets 3) in the past few weeks? Especially with Brown supposedly returning.. Last edited by BlackOp; 12-16-2024 at 05:02 PM.. |

I've said it all along and I'll keep saying it. Give Pat a breather, let him get right, or if nothing else a little less wrong, and see what Wentz can do. I'm not suggesting we bench him. There is no quarterback controversy here. I'd rather have a fresh Mahomes playing on Christmas in Pittsburgh, not an even more beat up Mahomes playing on four days rest. But I fear Pat will probably play if he's physically able. And I don't think it will bode well. I kind of feel like Longstreet telling Lee not to attack the center. |

If Andy thinks he can play, he's playing.

So there’s no chance with our porous OL that’s been getting Patrick pressured and sacked at an alarming rate, while he’s on a bad ankle… vs the team with the second most sacks in the league… he absolutely won’t get injured worse?

I would think everyone would be taking KC and the 2 points...which means Vegas will lose it's ass if KC wins or loses by 1. This spread doesn't make sense... |
