KCSLC2008 606 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Reid just announced that Mahomes will start this week. I had planned on doing a "Best 16" of Mahomes next year. But doing it game by game, so in the 2018 season, a game could bump down a game from the list. We could naturally say in Week 6 that we had a Top 5 of Mahomes and Week 9, say we have a Top 8. Now, we can say, likely, that 2018 Week One is better than 2017 Week 17. I'm going to predict that this week will be his top game of his career so far.

moons314 2,463 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Bray needs to play also. Could be tradable for picks. No. Bray is a free agent after this year. Even if he had trade value, which he doesn’t , he’s not under contract beyond this season. Playing Bray would be completely pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The news of Mahomes starting has just clouded everything else at the moment. Not sure why it hasn’t been reported who else isn’t playinv, it’s kinda a huge deal, bigger than the obvious start for Mahomes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sith13 1,746 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I don't think the media asked about the supporting cast so we won't know until the game but I'm guessing guys like Hunt and Kelce sit out at least most of the game. Finally we get to watch Mahomes in the NFL, the least important game of the season just got way too exciting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend of AC 269 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 This is a mistake in my opinion. Alex should get at least the first couple of series in this game.

Mahomes will get plenty of time with the legit players soon enough and Alex needs to start focusing on Baltimore right now. Our starters get to rest while theirs have to grind out a late start and hopefully come here on a short week to boot. Use our advantage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no rust in Indi when the starter sat out against SD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d give Alex at two possessions before I made switch though. And them make him holder for FGs and extra points so we can fake one if necessary.

KCSLC2008 606 Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 I’d give Alex at least two possessions before I made switch though. No, here's what you do. Put Smith in the first possession and run three straight times straight into the brick wall. Then you run twice getting holding penalties at least once each down. Then, when he doesn't complete a 3rd and 30. The next possession, run again on first down, have Hill throw an INT on second down. The next possession, send Smith out as receiver, wildcat, and then Kelce INT. Then, put in Mahomes after blaming Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m on board at some point with Kelce throwing again. He’s got a legit arm. I’ll bet there is actually a pass to Alex somewhere in Andy’s 1000 page playbook.
