Not good

I've read that too, but his plant foot is a whole different animal. Patrick's a God, I'm just thinking Burrow may be closer to a God Sunday.

Okay, Mahomes looks very good on the practice field. What a quick recovery from Sunday.

I would not say good, he was very timid with his jog.. the key is going to be putting weight and real movement.. with that said, he is on the field which does indicate he will be at least playing but very likely will have some limitations on sunday

Mahomes is fine. Don't worry people, Bengals will be ready for Mahomes, chiefs, weather. whatever. This is going to be a brutal game.

Well, if I didn't see Mahomes limping so bad last Sunday, and hadn't been told he had a high ankle sprain, and I only saw that video, then I would think nothing was wrong with him. I think I expected to see something more like Cappa, who was videotaped today in a walking boot.

Interesting that such video can get out. You would think the Chiefs would have a big advantage by hiding Mahomes progress. 

Edit: Apparently there is now a report from Ben Baby of Cappa in the locker room without the walking boot.

I want to see him plant and cut on that ankle before i say "looks very good". He looked very tentative to me!

I want to face Mahomes just because I want to beat them at their best. I dont want to hear B.S like with the Ravens fans "We would have won 
if we had Lamar "

Lamar in that game 19-32 174yds 1td 1int  12 rush 58 yards
Huntley in playoff game 17-29 226 yards 2td 1 int  9rush 54 yds

It isnt like Lamar was going to play any better than Huntley did.

Bring on Mahomes win or lose. Who Dey!

He is pulling a Rottenburger lol
Remember in the 2015 playoff game when he had to be carried off field?
Jeremy Hill fumbles and all the sudden he runs his ass back out there and wins the game,

Faker!

Big Ben would have said in the presser after the win that his ankle was actually amputated and sewed back on at half time.... That guy.... He even had Tomlin rolling his eyes when hearing his injury updates.

I think the Chiefs are doing a really, really good job of trying to convince people Mahomes ankle isn't an issue.

It's 100% still bothering him and it will 100% be an issue for him Sunday - they just don't want anyone else or the Bengals to think it is.

Mahomes can ball out so even if he's not mobile I feel like his ankle will only become an issue if he needs to avoid pressure and extend plays.  I don't think it's gonna matter as much as we hope it does, sadly.  Not that I want him to be hurt...i just think his ankle will end up being a non issue.

Exactly. HUGE difference between game speed and doing the light jog he is doing there. 

I hoenstly think the Chiefs want the Bengals to believe he is completely fine so they don't game plan pressuring him with blitzs as much.

The lad will be off his tits and is only able to manage a gentle jog.

Come Sunday when he’s got Trey and Sam breathing down his neck and he’s scrambling around I think it will be a very different Mahomes.

Prepare for him at his best anything else is a bonus.

We win by 4 if he’s healthy by 13 if he’s limp.

I would disagree. I am not remembering anything off the top of my head in the passing game but there were 100% running plays that Huntley couldn't make where Lamar would have. That long run to put the Ravens at the goalline by Huntley? Lamar scores there if he has that kind of room. There was another play early on where Huntley was caught by Hubbard or Hendrickson, can't remember which. It was short of a first down, but Lamar would have converted there. 

I have no idea if the Bengals would have lost if Lamar played, but that game was close enough that I am glad we don't have to find out.

They must think we are not very smart… of course you pressure him and test his mobility/stability.

If I’m Lou (and I’m not) I have to think the plan is to blanket Kelce, bring pressure and put your secondary on an island and force mahomes to prove he has the accuracy and force needed to beat you.

Also, maybe most importantly, stop the run.

Jacksonville didn't do it in the second half at all.

It's giving Big Ben; broke leg, busted knee, just to return and run for 35 yard gain on next play....... He was trying to play hero vs Jags.

In the mean time a real high ankle sprain looks like this two weeks later.

Cappa limping with a boot even, 0% shot he plays next week in KC as well

We HAVE to win this game & end the game with a healthy OL. pic.twitter.com/sJNtWk74TE

I like how the tweet mentions limping in a boot. I'm not a medical professional but I do know that even perfectly healthy people limp while wearing a boot it's a weight thing lol.

[motoarch]

I don't care who's at QB or what condition they're in.

They have to play us.

It feels good to be the guys everyone is scared of for once.
