I’d imagine if Pat did have surgery in the off-season it would only be a scope to make sure that any internal swelling (even if minor) or inflammation is gone completely as a future precaution. That’s probably a soft recovery (aka take it easy) of less than a month.
And that’s even assuming he would need surgery. If Marcellus’s post was true about Pat not having issues now, then that would be great.
Overall we dodged a bullet. I think everybody’s first thought when that happened was ACL. [Reply]

Hi!
Welcome to life as a Chiefs fan where the “freak deal” is a normal season derailing (sometimes multiple season) occurrence.
Houston’s knee
Berry’s spirit/cancer
The Mariota pass to himself
The luck fumble
The kicker that won’t be named
Forward progress fumble
Dee Ford offsides
Not being able to run the ball with LJ against Indy
Losing a playoff game where the offense never punted
Blowing a 28 point mid 3rd quarter lead in the playoffs
I’m not interested in tempting fate with the MVP. In no way would I let him play until his knee is completely healed. Or as close to possible as that. Gonna protect the kid from himself.
I think we’re gonna see a game tonight that the defense plays well and the offense has a tough time moving the ball resulting in a loss by multiple scores and Mahomes forces his way into next weeks lineup.
I just hope history doesn’t repeat itself. [Reply]

It doesn’t require surgery even after the year at this point. That was reported some time ago.
Any surgery would be the result of further injury. [Reply]

You also thought we would never draft a QB in the 1st round.
What we think means jack shit and there is no such thing as a curse [Reply]

I’m scared guys.
Does this injury make him more likely to re-injure, or does the fact that he has stretchy ligaments? If the first then yeah, that sucks. If the second, then I guess you wear a brace and hope for the best. Not like he had this issue in college or anything.
Personally, I think if we beat the Packers he rests another week. Great incentive to go play your asses off Chiefs. [Reply]

Of course it does, but he's a quarterback. You can barely touch quarterbacks. If he was a WR, TE or RB it would be a much bigger deal. [Reply]
There’s going to be an argument next week in KC as Patrick Mahomes will try to push to play as early as next week. He took scout team reps and moved great.
