Show Notes

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes played just half of the first quarter in Saturday's preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, leading columnist Sam Mellinger to write: "Come On What’s The Point."

Chiefs lost 17-7, but it was the prospect of two more preseason games that was decidedly more problematic.
