Without Patrick Mahomes, the Kansas City Chiefs are an average football team and more than likely will not reach the playoffs. Matt Moore is an average quarterback. He does not have the moves that Mahomes has, and I’m sure the team has a lot more confidence and believe they can win any game with Mahomes at quarterback. His presence in the line-up energizes the entire team.

But what I don’t understand is why the Chiefs haven’t changed their play-calling? Whatever happened to the end run? They tried it once in the first quarter and picked up nine yards.

I’m writing this at the end of the third quarter of the Chiefs-Vikings game so my observations are not based on the outcome of the game. It’s true the Chiefs have some great players in addition to Mahomes, but if Moore can’t consistently hit his receivers it really doesn’t matter that much. When Mahomes comes back into the line-up they’ll start winning. But if he gets hurt again, then the Chiefs can kiss being in the playoffs goodbye.
