I love watching this team but it just wasn't their year.

(27,449 posts)The O-line was a big problem for them versus the Chargers' pass rush. And having the refs on the opposing side didn't help them any.
has been a problem all year. Kelce has done some better. Also I cannot get over all the injuries on the team this year and couple that with the penalties galore this year 🤦♀️😱🤬🤬🤬

Time for Kelce to retire.

Mahomes has been very durable over his years in the league.

I hope Mahome's knee is okay. I watched when he went down, and that lateral movement sure looked like damage to the lateral collateral ligament at a minimum. So, I am betting surgery is in his future. Maybe their elimination is for the best this end-of-season.

Monday night in Dallas by an orthopedic surgeon who is a Cowboys physician. Rice used same doctor when he injured his knee last season.

Hope Mahomes is okay. He is one of the greats.

(112,653 posts)Tough injury for a QB that likes to run. But, he'll have the best of the best surgeons available to him and should recover fine with a lot of PT work afterward. The worst part is that some who suffer this injury are pretty "gun-shy" afterwards, of it happening again, and "self-protect", making them far less aggressive/effective on the field.

(1,062 posts)I'm a Charger fan and seeing Mahomes have a major injury isn't anything to be happy about. I'd rather see the Chargers lose than for any opposing player to suffer a serious injury.
Before this game, I was glad to see KC was not going to make the playoffs. They've dominated the AFC for a long while and now it's another team's time.

I hate the "chefs".
I've always thought Mahomes was a system qb. Put him on another team and see him flail.
