Certainly, it seems like Andy Reid became comfortable with back-up quarterback Matt Moore during last week’s win at Arrowhead Stadium over the Minnesota Vikings. So much that it sounds like he will go with the hot hand another week over injured Patrick Mahomes.
While Mahomes has been somewhat active in practice for the two weeks in absence, Reid wouldn’t commit to his status for Sunday’s game against the Tennessee Titans. However, Reid did say Mahomes won’t need full practice before a return to the position for the Chiefs.

Furthermore, Reid said that Mahomes has good mobility right now; or at least it’s improved.
“It looks like he’s moving around better,” Reid said. “That’s all I can tell you. I don’t know all the medical terms, but he looked better this week than he did last week.”
So there’s improvement. I think most people reading this article hope to see Mahomes back on the field in week ten. But not so fast my friend. Then, Reid said this:
“Is he ready? I can’t tell you that. I mean, I’m not sure we’ll know that until we get there. Who knows? But we’ll see how it goes here. I’ll let the doctors handle all this.”
Finally, as a sign of the sure Apocalypse; Skip Bayless speculated that Matt Moore could be a better fit for this Chiefs team because the team plays with ‘more spirit’ with Moore under center.
Matt Moore beats Kirk Cousins, as I predicted on Undisputed. I'm certainly not saying Moore is better than Mahomes. But the Chiefs are playing with more spirit and fight than they did for Mahomes, who lost his last two home games.

Obviously, Bayless tweeted that to get guys like me to react; and here I am. Still, I am checking the deep corners of the internet day-by-day to see if Mahomes is going to play on Sunday. And that is indicative of his talent, because I’m not a Chiefs fan and I don’t roster him on a fantasy football team.
