San Francisco, CA. I didn’t expect Raheem Mostert to be the featured key to the packing of the Packers. I thought Aaron Rogers would play better than that, but every time you turned around on Sunday night, the Packers were getting Mostert all over themselves. It wasn’t that the Packers were not ready to play, it was the fact that Jimmy Garrapolo seemed to think that he wanted to put Mostert all over the cheese. I was extremely proud of Raheem. Even though he was an undrafted free agent from Boilermaker Nation, the 49ers seemed to be having fun with the their new found Mostert bottle. This is the stuff that makes this reporter take notice, and it makes me want a Raheem jersey, because it reminds me of my home town in Indiana any time a Boiler does good in the NFL. The Kansas City Chiefs are going to have to be careful if they don’t want Mostert all over themselves in the Super Bowl.
As for something else that’s going on in the NFL, Patrick Mahomes reminds me of a guy that many of you laugh at in TV commercials. He used to be the quarterback for your Indianapolis Colts, and will some day go into the HOF. You could be looking at the next coming of Manning. No one yells “Omaha” like Peyton Manning, but the one thing I was noticing on Sunday was that every team has something that they yell so that the other team cannot figure out where they are going with the ball. Patrick Mahomes was yelling “color, color” which to me means that if you hear that, the ball is about ready to be placed in the hands of Travis Kelce, who is one of Patrick’s security blankets, just like Marvin Harrison was Peyton’s favorite horse to play with. I can’t wait to see if Richard Sherman gets burned by Kelce, and he probably will.
