Hey mods - maybe change the thread title to Mahomes post game locker room or something. I used vernacular that is apparently leading everyone to think he had a hissy fit, when in actuality, I meant to pass on that he stood up like the god damn leader he is.
Great leaders accept their own level of responsibility, but you also cannot let failure breed in your ranks. Mahomes is a ****ing natural leader, and why would ANYONE assume that if he called out the team, it was anything other than exactly the kind of fire you'd want from your franchise QB? Every player on KC needs to realize that substandard execution isn't just about not doing your job. They need to be terrified of letting Mahomes down. |

My guess is there was a deep level of frustration and Mahomes was visible and vocal about it. But saying “we’re not going to keep losing games like this” isn’t necessarily an indictment of the defense. It could be just as easy as his saying “we’re not losing these games like this” next season because he’s not going to allow it. Given everything we know about Mahomes, his demeanor, his poise, and his competitive spirit, that’s a far more likely context than he’s sitting there calling out the defense after the game. This doesn’t need to be black and white.

I posted this as an awesome testament to his leadership and willingness to win. You need to hate to lose if you're gonna play for Brady or Peyton. Same is going to be true here. |

I don't know if this report is true or not, but leaders lead. It's time for guys like PM2, Kelce, Houston, and Jones to start leading. If that takes some ass chewing, so be it. There are too many that use the excuse "I did my job" and let it go at that. This is a team sport and they all need to be of like mind or get the hell off the bus.

As much as I agree with him, he does need to look in the mirror a bit. I know he is harsh on himself a lot, so he has to see that in spite of protection issues, he played a poor first half.

I have no doubt he takes some of the blame. He flat out stunk in the 1st half.

He knows when he messes up. He also knows how pathetic this defense has been all year and there needs to be accountability on that side of the ball |

Sounds like it was a very effective pep talk. Yea he's got a cool demeanor, which means when he doesn't, you better ****ing listen.

To the people who are wringing hands over this, so terribly scared that our QB isn't afraid to dress his team down in the locker room after a loss of this magnitude:
I hate every ****ing one of you, and curse God for allowing you to waste his precious oxygen.
