Patrick Mahomes has a dislocated kneecap and there's a lot to go over, from how it affects to Chiefs to the ripple effect on playoff races (the Packers and Lions both get to face K.C. without its star QB). John Breech points out another QB who got hurt on a sneak, and Ryan Wilson and Sean Wagner-McGough also join to break down the injury, what's next for the Chiefs and much more.
I went 4-1-1 last week and I really don't even like to be this hot (HUMBLEBRAG!) but I do like this week's slate, so I'm taking it up a notch with eight best bets. My confidence in the Titans offense is not high, but the Chargers have their own issues so I like Tennessee in this spot, as well as a little road chalk (and get a load of the big favorite I'm fading).
The trade deadline is fast approaching, so it's worth wondering: what would the draft look like if A.J. Green, Von Miller and more big names were dealt? Josh Edwards says it would look like this, with the Vikings trading Stefon Diggs to the Colts and drafting his replacement along with another pick, and check out the Bengals' haul after dealing Green.

JLC points out that Baltimore struggles mightily against above-average QBs, and Russell Wilson is about as above average as they come, and he also LOOOOVES one road team that will be fired up behind its coach's spite.
Patrick Mahomes is a big loss, but the good thing for his fantasy owners is that his injury happened on a Thursday, so they have a chance to beat the waiver wire for Week 8. Jamey Eisenberg broke down who could fill in while Mahomes is out (Teddy Bridgewater faces the Cardinals next week), and also has some sleepers for Week 7 that include one of the few healthy Packers WRs.
Pretty soon, Aaron Rodgers is going to have to throw passes to himself. Davante Adams is out again, Geronimo Allison is doubtful, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling is questionable for the Raiders game. Patrik Walker broke down the Packers outlook as well as the injury report for every team; here's how it's looking for Mitchell Trubisky.
Every year since 1998, EA Sports has featured at least one player on its 'Madden' video game cover. Patrick Mahomes was on the cover for 2020, and now he's got a dislocated patella. Does that mean the jinx continues? We revisited Cody Benjamin's look at who was on every 'Madden' cover, and here's how many actually were cursed.
