Kansas City Chiefs fans must have been really worried after seeing Patrick Mahomes go out with an injury during the second quarter of their divisional-round matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday.

It appears everyone but the Chiefs are aware that their system could get the best out of any QB. Someone should have told them before they paid Mahomes all that money.
The starting/system QB was able to return to the game for the second half.
