00:00Huge game yesterday in Cleveland, perhaps not for both teams looking for a playoff spot,
00:09but for the Chiefs trying to maintain that number one overall seed in the AFC and perhaps
00:14prove to people around the National Football League that we are actually a good football
00:19team despite now being 13 and one, because that is the record for the Chiefs.
00:25Yesterday 21 to 7, the victory over the Browns, they cover as a four and a half point favorite.
00:32The Chiefs now as a six and a half point favorite or fewer this year, five and two against the
00:36spread.
00:37That's good.
00:38Finally, not a one score game for Casey.
00:41That's good.
00:4214 point victory margin, largest of the year for Kansas City.
00:46That is also good.
00:48So what could be the issue?
00:50Eight minutes remaining in the fourth quarter with the Chiefs comfortably ahead by two touchdowns,
00:55fourth and short Patrick Mahomes trying to look to extend the play and keep the drive
01:00alive is kind of sandwiched between a couple of Browns defenders, gets up and limps off
01:07the field with what the Chiefs are calling a high ankle injury.
01:12We'll have the pro football doc here on the show later on in our third hour, but DRS outside
01:18of a 14 point win for Casey, maintaining that two game lead for the number one seed in the
01:23AFC with just three weeks remaining.
01:26The biggest story in the NFL right now, the high ankle injury to Patrick Mahomes.
01:32And that's going to be a massive news because why?
01:34Yes, they are the best team in football right now.
01:36Record wise.
01:37Yes, they would see seemingly seem to actually get that number one overall seed with maybe
01:41some rest even in week 18 heading into the playoffs where you get that rest in round
01:45number one.
01:46But now we take a look at Patrick Mahomes who yesterday, this is the like, I like what
01:50Kansas City does.
01:52This might've been one of their better performances, windy, rainy conditions on the road.
01:56You figure Jameis Winston might have some magic out there and it certainly didn't work
01:59out that way.
02:00The defensive Steve Spagnuolo really put the screws to Jameis Winston, multiple turnovers.
02:04They had this game wrapped up early on.
02:06Once they got a 14 up into that weather, I didn't think there was any way that Cleveland
02:09was coming back.
02:10So good win by them.
02:11But now you start to look because we know how tough Patrick Mahomes is.
02:14He's played through a lot of injuries and he stood in the pocket and performance and
02:17you know what?
02:18I can barely move, but at least if I'm out there, it's better than me not being out there.
02:22You look at their next three games and maybe it's, you've got to change the schedule around
02:25by saying, okay, Texans would be week 18 where they'd have everything wrapped up because
02:29they won the division, but they can't really get a higher seed.
02:31If you go that route, you play them next week.
02:33The Texas is going to give you the best punch they have.
02:36Then you're going on the road against the Steelers who is still at that time fighting
02:38either a for the top overall seat.
02:40If they smell blood in the water from Kansas City or be just trying to win the division
02:43over the Baltimore Ravens.
02:45And then you get the Broncos in the final game of the year, which you might be needing
02:48for the Broncos just to secure that final spot or final two spots to get into the playoff.
02:53If you're telling me Patrick Mahomes might be down the next two games, theoretically,
02:57they could probably lose both of those football games going up against those teams.
03:01And now you're saying, do we just rest him in week 18, even if we have a chance to still
03:04get the number one overall seed, because we just want Patrick Mahomes to be a hundred
03:08percent healthy when he gets to the playoffs, tough injury, but they have a little bit of
03:12a blanket and Ken Carson went step up, but we'll find out a little bit more today, hopefully
03:16on that, when that MRI gets back in the prognosis of when we think he can play.
