mjp28 Posted October 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 The Chiefs announced that the reigning NFL MVP would not return to the game. Mahomes hurt his knee on a fourth-and-1 plunge for a first down at the Broncos' 3-yard line with his team up 10-6 in the second quarter. Mahomes limped off the field and went into the visitor's locker room at Empower Field at Mile High. He suffered a patella dislocation, and will have to undergo an MRI to determine if there was ligament damage, according to NFL Network.

If I know anything about patellar dislocations- Mahomes is going to be out for a long while. And don't yuck it up Fantasy Ag... Learned this from my bike riding- knee pain from extended bike riding is a not uncommon occurrence- you have groves in your femur and tibia that hold those tendons in place. Your kneecap jumps out of those grooves- you had to have had some tissue damage. Ligament damage- which may or may not occur when you dislocate the patella, would make it a lot worse. The MRI he's going to have today will tell how much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep coming in second place behind him overall. 1st place gets $400 and 2nd gets $200 in bonus money. I won't mind being 2nd behind my daughter's father-in-law because last year he was completely shut out. No wins any week and no 1st or 2nd overall. But I sure don't won't "Khan" taking $$ out of my pocket again. And he chose just before me in the 1st round of the draft and took Mahomes. My consolation prize was McCaffrey. 🤩 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjp28 Posted October 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 Friday morning update. Facebook Twitter Flipboard EPatrick Mahomes injury forecast doesn’t sound promisMark Fischer October 18, 2019 | 9:07am | UpdatedM MOREON: PATRICK MAHOMES Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes leaves game after scary knee injury Eventhe best-case scenario for Patrick Mahomes seems grim. The Chiefs superstar quarterback is expected to undergo an MRI exam on Friday to assess whether there’s more damage to the dislocated right kneecap he suffered in Kansas City’s 30-6 win over the Broncos the night before. Even if there isn’t any, Mahomes would likely miss around three weeks, according to ESPN. The 23-year-old Mahomes was injured in a pileup near the goal line in the first half. “I’ve never seen anything like that on the field before,” Denver defensive end Shelby Harris said. “His knee was literally all the way to the side, his kneecap was. I wish him the best. We definitely need him in the league, he’s definitely a big attraction in the league.” The Chiefs’ medical staff appeared to pop Mahomes’ kneecap back into place, and the 2018 MVP was walked off the field. Enlarge Image Patrick MahomesGetty Images Mahomes also is dealing with what NFL Network recently called a “legit” ankle injury that has lingered since Week 1. “Everything looking good so far,” Mahomes tweeted of his latest injury, while congratulating his teammates on the much-needed win. The Super Bowl contender had lost two games in a row before beating the Broncos, and are 5-2 for first place in the AFC West. Backup quarterback Matt Moore went 10-for-19 for 117 yards and one touchdown in place of Mahomes. The Chiefs have three games until their bye week, and may need to stick with the veteran Moore rather than dip into an unappealing quarterback market. Mahomes currently leads the league with 15 touchdown passes and 2,180 yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjp28 Posted October 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/chiefs-at-broncos-takeaways-final-score-patrick-mahomes-leaves-game-with-knee-injury-but-the-defense-rolls Patrick Mahomes will undergo an MRI on Friday after sustaining a knee injury during Thursday night's victory over the Denver Broncos, and as the NFL world awaits those results, there is reportedly optimism that he could be back after missing three weeks. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that Mahomes did indeed suffer a dislocated kneecap during the Kansas City Chiefs' 30-6 victory over the Broncos while adding that the quarterback's best-case scenario would be to be out for "about three weeks" pending the results of Friday's MRI. The amount of ligament damage sustained during the injury will ultimately determine how much time Mahomes will miss, according a medical expert. The injury appeared to be much more significant after Mahomes laid on the ground in obvious pain after successfully executing a quarterback sneak during the first half. Optimism quickly rose, however, after Mahomes was able to walk off the field with assistance from the Chiefs' medical staff. He was also able to exit the field under his own power. Patrick Mahomes suffered an ugly injury, so what happens now for the Chiefs and the QB? Ryan Wilson, John Breech and Sean Wagner-McGough joined Will Brinson to break everything down.

I had some Chiefs info pop up on my browser today, and one of the Broncos players who saw it before they popped the kneecap back in place (SOP, BTW) said it was way dislocated. FWIW. There was an ortho doc's input that depending on the damage, it could be three weeks at best, to season ending if surgery is required to fix it. Like if there's a fracture involved. Cavs fans well remember the aftermath when Kyrie busted his kneecap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjp28 Posted October 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 About 1 pm CBS Sports..... https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/patrick-mahomes-knee-injury-projected-recovery-timetable-as-explained-by-medical-expert An orthopedic knee surgeon offers a look at what Mahomes is up against, and the Chiefs are right to be nervous PW: Early reports are that Mahomes suffered a dislocated patella, but that there wasn't a fracture, but an MRI is scheduled to be performed as early as tonight or Friday morning. What ligaments are involved in keeping the patella itself in place, that are now at risk of being strained or torn? Dr. Rodney Benner: Yes, the video shows a member of the medical staff extending the knee and pushing the patella back into place from a dislocated position. The patella is held in a centralized location by ligament structures on both sides, medially (inside of the knee) and laterally (outside of the knee). In order for the patella to dislocate laterally, which is the direction it always goes, the medial retinaculum and medial patellofemoral ligament have to tear. An MRI scan will assess a few things. It can visualize the medial soft tissue and assess the extent of ligament tearing. Also, when the patella dislocates, a specific pattern of bone bruising is visible on the medial side of the femur and the lateral side of the trochlea, which is the groove on the end of the femur where the patella tracks. These bruises come about because those surfaces impact one another during the dislocation. Sometimes a piece of cartilage and possibly bone can break off and float loose inside the knee. This will be visible on MRI as well.........MUCH MORE IN THE LINK......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can skate by only losing 3 weeks or possibly the next game before the bye then KC would luck out on the best case scenario. These guys are highly paid assets and get the best care out there that money can buy plus are well conditioned athletes and do make remarkable comebacks. I just had a pretty involved hip surgery on September 16 which went better than expected by a few weeks and just yesterday started rehab which is expected to last maybe 2-4 weeks......and I'm 69 and not 24. Probably in total better than 4-6 weeks better than my April surgery. It's amazing what they can do with a good surgeon and the right setting. We will see who gets back first Patrick Mahomes or me. I'm sure all Kansas City is waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcam222 Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 Time frame is 3 - 8 weeks now. 3 sure seems fast. This would really shift power and open things up in the AFC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour2ma Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 Timing feels good to me, gum... KC has a quality backup... problem is that even with Mahommes playing their warts were already showing. Should still sneak into the playoffs, but I don't see them going deep... even with Mahommes back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 5-2, take 3 losses next four weeks and that makes 6-5. AFC West division is going to be cheap this year, they could probably still leading it after the bye. I'd take that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjp28 Posted October 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 The Alabama quarterback got a high ankle sprain and is expected to miss 1-2 weeks -but- these injuries can linger or possibly easily get reinjured and require a lot more time........edit add, do they maybe try to fit these injury recoveries into the team schedules??? The 1-2 week timeframe for Tagovailoa’s recovery fits into a convenient stretch for the Tide, at least. Up next for the team is 2-5 Arkansas, then a bye week. The team can afford little complications though, as a date against No. 2 LSU that could determine not just the winner of the SEC West, but a College Football Playoff spot is only three weeks away.

Yes with the aging big future first ballot HOF quarterbacks retiring any time now. Some were calling the rookie class of 2018 the best since 1983 does that still stand? (probably!)
