At the moment, I have Jonathan Taylor as the best player in the NFL. The kid is a damn beast and backed up by his swagger.


Christian is a better back. Look at his receiving numbers also. Taylor is one dimensional he’s obviously top 10

The feds need to investigate KOC & his staff. Shady stuff.

As much of a KOC apologist I am. Thursday night was really something else to watch.

I’d say 2-3 possessions in, it was clear as day Wentz was in a ton of pain. Then by half time it looked like there was no chance of him continuing. And it never got better in the 2nd half, it just got worse and worse. It felt like KOC was willing to leave Wentz out there as long as he was breathing.

Then while he watched Wentz get beat up like no other, he won’t play JJ unless he’s 100% healthy. And wouldn’t play Brosmer for what reason? And now you got Vikings fans saying he didn’t play Brosmer because that could start a brand new QB controversy since Brosmer looked better than JJ during training camp and preseason. And if he looked better than JJ in the regular season, it could start a Lance/Purdy 2.0 situation. I don’t buy this, but if this was the case, you would’ve acted exactly as KOC did on Thursday.

I’m done trying to figure out what they’re doing with the QB. I feel like it’s already set in stone that this front office and coaching staff are done by the end of next season

Wentz is out for the season. I’m gutted for the Viking fans. This is a disaster easily avoided and completely self provoked. My heart goes out to you and Hermes

If this isn’t coaching malpractice, I don’t know what is. This kind of seems like taking advantage of a player knowing he’s on the last legs of his career.

You have JJ who’s healthy, but not 100% and because of that you won’t play him. And you’re going to use Wentz and no doubt his desperation to use any chance he has to prove he still has something. To eat up time as you’re trying your best to get your young QB healthy/prepared.

If JJ really was so hurt he couldn’t play. Then just play Brosmer. You don’t toss a guy out there with a torn labrum and fractured shoulder socket to eat up time. I don’t know how any doctors didn’t step in and say no to this.

Wentz went from being a fun punching bag as a fan. To now feeling really bad for him.

every single spot and every single semi-borderline call goes in the chiefs favor. washington has to make it a foot past the line to gain just to get a first down.

Penalties,
5 for 55 yards for the Chiefs
2 for 20 yards for the Commanders

What are you talking about? Did the Mahomes fumbled the ball on a forward progress that got called off?

*update:
6 for 65 yards Chiefs
3 for 35 yards Commanders

Do you think line would have been 10.5 with Daniels?
