Amen Rich... As a Bengals fan, I can say that Mahomes is 100% the truth. I'd take a 50% Mahomes over 27 starting QB's in the league.
Welcome Back Rich. Chiefs Kingdom is big that way. 🏈
Mahomes didnt just go out, the dude hopped back in the next damn play before taking a quick breather. He's insane and him vs Burrow is gonna be the new Manning vs Brady for the next 10+ years.
Well he got through THAT game but I'm sure ot very sore today it will give Chefs Homer's a complaint (well the lost because Mahommes wasn't mobile he couldn't roll out of the pocket or run well enough
@@geraldotto3145 would be pretty valid going against the bengals would be hard to beat if not 100% but that more of a testament to how good the bengals are
with maybe josh allen thrown in there once in a while. should be decent.
Brady & Manning was in 2 different conferences
Mahomes = Brady
Burrow = Manning
Allen = Allen
Patrick Mahomes brings a Globe Trotterish spin to the game and it can be exciting I'll admit .
*Mahomes brings unparalleled athleticism, tenacity, football IQ, and will to win to the game. It's great if you like KC, or exciting football*
ftfy
Sprained my ankle and like Rich said the day of the injury it’s still playable but that next day is no joke
You can walk, but, every now and then, it will fail. For me, it was six months before I was completely healed.
@@reedsawyer5704 about the same here. Took 3 months to heal all the way. After a week or so I could jog though
truth, played the back quarter of a game with a high ankle sprain. Hasn't been the same since.
yep
@@thestoebz double yep. Usually a 6-8 week injury for a pro athlete.
The Chiefs backup QB played very well too
I sat in the lower bowl for the first time, and seeing everything at a real life scale, seeing Mahomes (pre-hobbled especially) do his thing, he’s really fucking different. I’ve seen him plenty in person, but I have a new POV that I never thought I would get
That's cool. Never been to an NFL game but hope to do so soon.
The size of the fight in Patrick Mahomes can’t be quantified. He’s a unicorn 🦄 a once in a lifetime talent. 50 percent of him is better than most other QBs, because he so talented and gifted physically and mentally. I’d say he’s closer to a 2.0 of Elway if I compared him to another QB because of the baseball background that they have in common. Joe Montana even gushes over him. Appreciate him while he’s playing 🏈.
Thanks rich as a Jags fan it wasa great year god bless see you at combine.
I love Mahomes, easily the best qb since he’s been a starter and will be for the next 10 years but the way the bengals handled the bills the way they did, I can’t see a hobbled Mahomes beating this cinci team
Hope you are correct 🫡
*WAITS* To Annihilate you
Rich you had eyes watering a little bit I been here in kc from day one glade to be alive to see this
Mahomes is awesome!!!!!! Mahomes is a special rare quarterback, with special rare talent and skills. The dude is just gifted!!!!!!!! Love it!!!!!! 😉
My comp is this.. remember when Prime Aaron Rodgers came along making every throw, having big clutch plays, BUT he did it efficiently (minus the Favre mistakes essentially). It's like that...except Rodgers lost some of the magic that came with Favre - not a lot but a smidge - and Patrick has that smidge of elite Favre magic AND then some PLUS that Rodgers efficiency Rogers kept in the mix!
Great analogy. I definitely see that.
You forgot about the mobility
as a Bills fan,, the next team and QB I enjoy watching is KC and Mahomes. Hope he can go
It’s a bummer these three QBs are all in the AFC, or we’d all have a lot more SBs to share. Allen’s is coming. This year looks like Burrows
@@JakeFromStateFarm-xj2kv I agree with this 100% man if one of the three were in the nfc the Superbowls would be even better. But I'm blessed that mahomes is here In KC
That kid is not going to give up! That's why we are attracted. I liked the Mahomes 1.0 option.
Comparing Burrow to Brady os blasphemous.
1:41 - haha, love it man
I think with Mahomes injured, the Bengals toughest matchup was with Baltimore in these playoffs.
What????
I swear they win 3 games by a field goal and now KC is cakewalk. 😂
Famous last words
@scarfaceaceo very well could be true. I'd like for the Chiefs to win but it will be hard with Mahomes hurt.
A win is a win whether it's 3 points or 33 points
The fans who are tired of the gushing over Mahomes are just butthurt and salty because they are tired of having to watch Mahomes beat their team. Mahomes isn't the only great young QB in the league right now, he played against one last week, and is playing arguably the best QB in the league not named Mahomes next week. Guys like Burrow, Lawrence, Allen, and Herbert are all incredible, but Mahomes is in a class all by himself. The stats back that claim up, and so does the eyeball test. Not only does Mahomes make insane and impossible plays look routine, his stats overall are just insane. We have never seen anyone else like him, and probably never will.
💯
Allen Not so good
Mahokes in 2 Super Bowls > 4 int's ,2 sb's 😂🤣
@@antonchigurh7227 Yet he's going to be playing in his 3rd in 4 years while your loser team and QB will be watching from home. 🤣😂
I'm not a KC fan or really a Mahomes fan in particular, but the dude is insanely good and I'm pretty sure if most any team had the chance to take him they would. I'd take him over any QB playing right now, maybe ever.
Skill wise? Yes, ever
No way I would take Mahomes over Joe Burreaux.
@noahdunaway don't watch enough football do ya?
@@brettb4452 watch plenty, you must not be watching Joe Burreaux.
@NOAH DUNAWAY Nah... I'll take Mahomes. Two time League MVP, Offensive Player of the Year, Superbowl Champ, Superbowl MVP, multiple Pro Bowl selections, multiple All Pro selections and just set the NFL Record for offensive yards in a season.
Burrows done what again?
It’s okay rich I’m a chargers fan and watched the game vs Tannehill n the titans and I forgot he came back after that injury
You can play with an ankle sprain sustained in a game and still play. It hasn't swollen yet and the adrenaline and tape allow you to play. Not taking away what Mahomes did, it was incredible. But a week later it's a million times harder. He'll play but his running around will be diminished significantly. Him and Burrow are the top 2 QBs in the NFL.
I love Mahomes!!
i love burrow!!!
Did you watch the segment?
So, the Bengals have said they are preparing to play against Mahomes and are expecting him to be 100%. ?? Does that mean they don’t prepare for Henne?? Because Henne is a damn good QB is his own right. If they don’t prepare for both, they may be surprised.
If the Bengals prepare for playing Mahomes even if he doesn't play they will be just as prepared for Henne. Reid has said " They run the same plays" with either QB. You just have to be prepared for next level play with Mahomes as Henne is (obiously) nowhere near the QB that Mahomes is.
@@btygr1907 The only thing I would add is Lou Anarumo does not have a good record against backup QB's.
Thank you.
You forgot about Philip Rivers.
You forgot about Audie Murphy.
Mahomes is like Steve Young with a better all around arm.
Same. I'thinking a Bigger Version of Young.
Not a good comparison because the QB has a ton more protection from the refs nowadays!
Young a better runner
I hope he plays and his ankle is fine because when gets Burrowed again I don't want to hear any excuses.
We will either beat the Bengals this year or every game we face them after Sunday.
How about them Chiefs!
I dunno if it’ll be an excuse man, Burrow has rocked us 3 times. As a chiefs fan, we understand Burrow is dialed in, and he’s way better than Allen. We’ll be rooting for ya after ya get us. Won’t be cryin, just a lil bummed the ankle has to happen now. But that’s the sport!
@@JakeFromStateFarm-xj2kv great way to put it
A half a Mahomie lol. Hope he can play close to full strength so when the Bengals beat them it won’t be the excuse everyone talks about.
What would you do if the Chiefs upset the Bengals?
@@ladyd4668 Oh Lawd, now the Chiefs are the underdog. Lol. If the Bengals lose I would say great season and what a fun ride then enjoy a fantastic SB matchup. Can’t lose with the 4 teams remaining.
@@ladyd4668 I will cry like a baby.
Rich Eisen hasn't seen every football game ever played! 😵 Next someone will tell me there is no Santa!
Rich speaking facts!
Mahomes gained a lot more respect from me (a diehard LAC fan). However.. I'm gonna play biased as well, but you HAD to have seen Herbert TNF week 2, vs these Chiefs, at Arrowhead... the dudes ribs got CRUSHED and then went a few plays later & zip a laser beam to Carter for a HUGE TD
Herbert is tough as nails too.
Before that he threw a 99 yard pick 6 that cost them the game... but yeah, hes tough.
@White Whale that pick 6 was so avoidable. For one thing they ran hurry up for that play. Right before the play the intended receiver went to the sideline to get out because he was gassed... sent back in regardless. Receiver ended up running a very poor route, herbert threw it, and it got picked off. I'm still salty over that play.. like calm down huddle up.. or take a timeout whatever .. and score in the goddamn redzone.
@@milleribsenalbeefan Yes, like a lot of what's been happening to the Chargers, coaching decisions have been hampering Herbert's path. If Spanos wasn't cheap, he'd get Sean Payton, who'd jump at the chance to coach Herbert. Rivers was nowhere close to Herbert, but he should've had way more playoff success. Business as usual, what a waste of generational talent.
Mahomie - Dante Culpepper resembles him
How?
They said it’s milder than the one he suffered wk 1 2019. He threw 4 TDs in a qtr the next game, against the Raiders tbf
The week after he beat the ravens.
That was lamar's MVP season.
Oh, and hill didnt play either game.
Yep
It is milder but the week 1 2019 injury was his left leg. This is his right leg which is the leg he plants to make his big throws.
I've never had a high ankle sprain, but I'm wondering if this isn't siimlar.... 30 yrs ago when they'd say a player had a "slight concussion" lol .... perhaps a high ankle sprain is going to be brutally painful and limit his mobility to keep him in the pocket, whether it's milder than 4 yrs ago or not. I truly hope he can play, but I'm tempering my expectations, it may be Henne-thing is possible!
There is a difference between giving the credit to Mahomes that he deserves, and what Chris Collinsworth does.
no its not stop hating boy
Chris Collinsworth is a former probowl WR who's seen some of the greats first hand, from his playing days all the way to the booth. He reacts the way he does, because he's never seen anyone like Mahomes, and he's personally seen 5 decades worth of players. Romo is younger, but the same, he also marvels at Mahomes. Tweets by current players during games marvelling at what Mahomes does. Like Eisen says, it's desserved.
I'd hope they're prepping Chad Henne to play much if not the total game. My guess is that Mahomes will start, and at a certain point (maybe before the half) he just won't be able to play. That's when Henne has to work his magic for a second consecutive game. Fascinating sh*t.
I love the “he’s working hard” ( in rehab). Like lying down, elevating, icing, ultrasound, STEM treatment. That’s not working hard.
Mahomes is Rodgers (2011-2014) 2.0.
Rodgers’ esteem has justifiably sunk quite a bit given his recent playoff shortcomings, but don’t forget that during that stretch we were watching QB being played like we never had before.
I would even go so far as to say that Mahomes May end up being exactly Rodgers 2.0, unless he’s able to get more MVPs and at least one more ring before he’s done.
Dont forget Russel Wilson before losing his mobility was all about scrambling and making plays, too. Mahomes has just been doing it with loaded offenses.
I hope so cause Rodgers is a playoff choker.
I'm a big Mahomes/Kc fan, but I'm nervous about Cincinnati having a week to plan against Mahomes....and Mahomes not being as mobile as he usual is and Cincy blitzes him like crazy.
Mahomes is no where near appreciated as much as he should be.
What are you talking about? He’s the best player in the game what do you want?
nobody cares what the haters think burrow is amazing and will have a claim for best qb if they win again but im still not taking anybody over mahomes hes one of one 5 straight afc chmpship games sb mvp sb 2 mvps in first 5 years and has a chance for another alex smith had this same team w hill n couldnt do what mahomes has done keep hating he gone keep balling
Every time people doubt Mahomes, he proves why he's the best
Expect when he plays Brady or Borrow 😂
I hate that he got hurt. Worst timing possible. I just want to see greatness. Mahomes v burrow at their best is as good as it gets. Hoping he can play
Correction: AndyReid joins Belichick and Tom LANDRY, not Tom Brady, as the only head coaches with 20 playoff wins or better.
Don't forget what the Bengals front 7 did to Mahomes when his legs were healthy. He will be hobbled. That Bengals D is almost certainly going to really hurt him. They aren't the Jags.
Coach Lou is gonna try and make him use his legs. That's for sure. We will definitely see how mild these copium filled chiefs fans think this injury is.
Mike Hilton blitz off the edge will have too much speed for a hobbled mahomes I feel the bengals are gonna use that to their advantage
@@hehenah4308 Bengals defense about to get a heavy dose of Pacheco and quick passes... 34-20 Chiefs👍
@@lakeozarkrei3767 hilarious take, pachenkos not even a real RB just a WR they hand the ball off too, he's not running anyone over and the Bengals have no issue plugging holes, quick passes doesn't magically guarantee anything, so what you're reduced too playing like other teams the Bengals play? Congrats? How tf does that give you an advantage?
@Supersonicspyro 2577 Ok... so you basically just told everyone reading your post you don't actually watch football... good job👍😅
One of my friends teases me for how much I gush about Mahomes. I used the word "electrifying" to describe Mahomes, comparing the spectacle to Barry Sanders at RB, and my friend was satisfied with that description.
Did Rich say that Tom Brady has 20 playoff wins as a head coach?
Yup 😂
elway was special. people forget how great he was bc the broncos didn't have much besides him for most his career.
I lived in Denver from '91-'05 as a Chiefs fan, and you are right, Elway was a beast. Even during the year of the first SB win in 1997, Broncos fans were whining about Elway, and I would say "hey I'll trade you straight across, Elvis (Grbac) for Elway!" "OH ... WELL ... uh ... ahem ... maybe our Elway isn't SO bad..." lol
@@jeffkan1 bill walsh was willing to trade joe montana to get john elway is all you need to know. yes, joe montana is one of the two greatest qb's to ever play given his career, and elway isnt bc they were two different players in two different situations, and how it played out in their careers. but again, all you need to know is bill walsh wanted to trade joe montana for john elway.
You'd have to kill Pat to keep him from playing. And people that really recognize talent and know football realize that Pat is just that different from anyone else that's ever played and actually that good. Most of the country doesn't see all of the things that he does. But we in Chiefs Kingdom know what Pat and the rest of the crew are all about. How special they are. Pat is to the NFL what Michael Jordan was to the NBA. PERIOD.
It's not that he's that good it's only because he produces, he delivers the goods, he brings home the bacon, love or hate you can't repudiate.
I sprained my ankle real bad one time, all I can say is Mahomes is made of some tough stuff.
It's called , medication that we poor people me, you and everyone else that doesn't matter have zero idea about! He is human after all! It's not like he's a super human a different breed of human, or a alien! It's medication that can cure cure cure super fast. Only for the players that the nfl deem the face or at least whoever makes the nfl more money. Either way he has access to stuff we can't even imagine.
Andy Reid ain't giving up any info
When I had a high ankle sprain in college ball, I missed 3 weeks. I played through a torn rotator cuff in an important game (dumb I know) but that high ankle sprain is not something that most can play through.
I’m a big Mahomes fan but it’s gonna be hard to beat the Bengals he’s not going to be like 60%
From what I can tell, when facing the Bengals the defense is the decider. Unfortunately my home town, go to, #1 favorite team is Chiefs.....
I just hope it's a titillating good game
Lol! Dude you don't know that kid!😅 Everybody heals different...
As a Titans fan, we are always forgotten or never watched. For real life
Mahomes will 100% play this week. You don't even have to ask that question. They're all saying he's doing fine today, dudes body isn't made out of the same stuff as the rest of us lol dude dislocated his knee cap and came back two weeks later and threw for 400+ yards.
I remembered that like it was yesterday it was unreal when came back that soon an dice 🎲 them up
They did lose that game to the Titans though.
He's 2.0 of prime Aaron Rodger. Lets hope his career turns out better
I don't get the Mahomes hate. He's such a good guy
People who suck at life hate seeing greatness, and seek to diminish it.
Any kind of success really. Just base envy.
Any Rand spoke to this issue yrs ago, it's the hatred of the good because it's good
@@whitewhale9012 Greatness? 2 Super Bowls 4 INT's , 2 TD's
@@antonchigurh7227 Keep proving my point.
@@whitewhale9012 Greatness? 2 Super Bowls 4 INT's , 2 TD's
Yep a high ankle sprain takes 6-8 weeks to heal even then it's not fully healed. But you know they're going to inject Mahomes with something to get ready to play. He's going to be hopping around again because he won't be able to plant that back heel down and flicking his wrist just to throw the short pass all day.
Cincinnati is definitely winning. Last time Mahomes had an injury like this. Kc got blown out to tampa in the Super bowl. 31-9. See another win for Cincinnati. Making it 4-0 vs kc heads up !! 🤑🤑🤑💯💯💯
😂
Mahomes will play and play well. And Henne will have his back. Chiefs have 2 solid QB
Haha I love Rich! He pretty much just said “I don’t watch the Titans!” 😂 poor Titan fans. At least he owns up to his mistakes. More than most.
i've just been wondering this whole time when defences were going to start taking the chiefs seriously and not one defence yet has effieciently been coached well enough to deal with him. the side throws, the scrambles for open coverage, the no looks. i know it's hard cause it requires high football iq as well but damn, it still looks like teams just don't have an answer..
There is one defense that dominated him and that was Tampa Bay. Like my first memory of that game is Mahomes running for his life. But I believe they had two starting lineman out. One was already injured and the other got injured in the AFC championship. But really there's no way to stop him, you gotta just limit the big plays. But then he'll kill you underneath and running. He truly is a conundrum.
The Bengals have had the answer three in a row bud. Hel
Mahomes will be ready to play but the Chiefs are going to have to have a great day running the ball with Pacheco and McKinnon in order to keep Burrow and his offense off the field while at the same time not allowing the Bengals to establish a run game with Mixon and Petrine. You know Chase, Boyd and Higgins are going to get theirs since the Chiefs have no shut down corners.
Haters gonna hate. Everyone crying about CC gushing over Mahomes would love it if he were their team's QB.
those cheifs aren't stopping my bengals, even if he's hurt we ain't going easy. we're coming, and we dont have to play you. THEY HAVE TO PLAY US. WHO DEY BABY
LOVE THIS.
I'm just glad we don't have cb number 23 Joshua Williams playing in the last six games he was giving up almost two touchdown per game and got cook in that Cincinnati game earlier this year
He is Elway 2.0. Closest comparison I've heard.
They are counting the Chiefs out. You still have to play the game
He is an old time football player when in the old days guys played hurt..
Dude had his kneecap popped back in and kept playing. A high ankle sprain ain't nothing to Mahomes
Pat is the greatest QB ever most skilled QB ever
as a Ravens fan, PLEASE keep gushing about Mahomes. We have to keep appreciating Mahomes and Jackson for the generational talents they are. They're 1 of 1 and all comparisons are inadequate because they're unique.
What has Jackson done in this league? bahahaha he's not even in the top 5 Qbs in the league
@@jordanspence8976 he does have mvp
Jackson might end up as a flash in the pan.
@Edward Saucedo and 1 playoff win.
@@jordanspence8976 won almost 75% of the game he plays and is one of TWO Unanimous MVP's in league history the other being the "GOAT" Tom Brady. The only person with more wins is Mahomes because Jackson didn't start all of his rookie season. HE also has 2 perfect passer ratings and four of the 5 highest QBR games of all time. He's easily top 2 with Mahomes.
We don't get a lot of Mozarts in the human experience. We should make the most of it when we get the honor of watching them work.
Burrow would hate the comp too
If he beats burrow and wins another superbowl , mahommes is already a hall of famer…
He can even retire after this season if he wants
Dear Rich Eisen: Ignore Twitter responses.
He's a warrior. He's tough. No one questions that. He's still human. He's not a cyborg. He's not Burrow.
Burrows carried by his defense.... he plays good in spurts. Stats back it up... just look at the Ravens game.
His career so far is better than burrow burrow needs to also get a ring first
What happened last year? KC went to the Sooper Bowl, oh, yeah, my mistake...
@@marybourgeau5812 what happened did burrow even win a ring last year? Oh yeah my mistake 😂 you don't get credit for just attending losers celebrate just making it

Where are all the Lamar apologists? 😂🤦♂️ High ankle sprain is a worse injury than a sprained PCL
Didn't McNabb do the same but with a Broken Ankle in a game? And is STILL Beloved for it? What year was that?
Just Double Checked... 2002... With Coach Ried... lol Interesting...
I thought TB12 had 31 playoff wins
Mahomes is Aaron Rodgers 2.0, new and improved with leadership and clutch gene.
Rodgers a clutch gene 😂🤤😝🤣
Chiefs Defense will have to have a day
Mahomes is Fran Tarkenton 2.0
First off, Burrow is not Brady 2.0!!
I dunno. Defense gets 2 turnovers in every playoff game, usually carries an underperforming offense, and the QB absorbs all credit for any success.
Sounds just like brady to me.
The ultimate team player, (Mahomes). In contrast to Lamar Jackson not even traveling with the Ravens for their playoff game. Bye bye, Lamar.
In fairness, Mahomes has a nice long term deal. Lamar doesn't. If he gets a devastating injury the NFL is ruthless so it could cost him millions.
Sprain.....ice...lots a ice.....rest.....stretching....ice......ibuprofen....ice....stretch....this Boy...WILL.....be fine......
And they will numb it for the game he will be okay
It doesn't matter the Bengals are winning the game regardless
The slurping never ends
Like a sprained ankle boy I ain’t nothing to play with
Get ready!!! LFG CHIEFS!!!
Chiefs being underdogs is great news -- we always play better as the dogs. Defense will be fired up.
U forgot about Ryan tannehil 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mahomes is a “football god”. The best in the business. Better than Burrow!
Eisen said 100% fact
There was not a single play Mahomes did after his injury that Henne couldn't have made ("jump pass" included). They got lucky that thr Jags didn't hit him once after that injury. It was a dumb move that didn't need to be made. Henne could have led them to a win. Now the Bengals will be sending Hendrickson and Mike Hilton or spy him again with Hubbard. If it's a bad injury Mahomes will end up sitting for Henne.
Amen Rich I'm so tired of this s***. I'm not even a Chiefs fan but I know Patrick mahomes is the greatest quarterback to ever play in the nfl. He's not like anybody else, his pocket presence is like Big Ben is comebacks are like Tom Brady, he's got a little bit of Aaron Rodgers but he takes it to a whole nother level. His stats are unbelievable
Brady has 6 rings
This is hyperbole to its greatest degree
Bit early for that claim.
@@Nastynati0513 Marino had no rings and is still one of the greatest QBs to ever play. Rings are a poor measurement for a skill based argument.
@Rusty Reese you missed the point, but thanks, I know Marino was great
The lesson here is to stay the hell off Twitter Rich.
If the Bengals defensive tackles get the push up the middle then any qb has to move. Even the media darling Patrick. If he has a hi ankle sprain then he doesn't play. If he plays the injury was a lie.
