Episode Details

The Chiefs got out of Denver with a convincing victory and an injured quarterback.

On a quarterback sneak, Patrick Mahomes suffered a dislocated right kneecap and left the game. That didn’t prevent the Chiefs from an impressive 30-6 triumph to end a two-game losing streak.

But it presented questions about the Chiefs’ future at the position that Sam Mellinger, Herbie Teope, Sam McDowell and host Blair Kerkhoff attempt to answer.

If Mahomes is out for a few weeks, do the Chiefs stay the course with veteran reserve Matt Moore or do they scour the landscape for a replacement?

Check out what the A-team had to say about Mahomes and the Chiefs’ most resounding triumph of the season.
