Creator’s take:

The Chiefs went again to Raymond James Stadium and got here away with a win.

It additionally proved they’re nonetheless one of many dominant groups within the NFL, regardless of what occurred on the highway in Week 3 on the Indianapolis Colts.

Creator’s take: 

I’m legitimately afraid of the variations of Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid we noticed in opposition to the Bucs on Sunday Night time Soccer in Week 4. Mahomes took three sacks and threw a fourth-quarter interception, however every part else was simply sensational. The offense was actually firing on all cylinders (as it has been all season), and it was hard to even make sense of it all at times in opposition to among the finest defenses within the NFL.

Creator’s take: 

There’s nobody within the league who performs like Patrick Mahomes and there’s no calling performs within the purple zone like Andy Reid. The Chiefs rank No. 1 in offensive EPA per drive and No. 1 in EPA per dropback, which makes them the envy of the league, particularly with among the finest offensive traces within the recreation. The 41 factors they scored Sunday night time had been essentially the most allowed by a Todd Bowles protection because the 2018 Jets misplaced to the Packers 44-38.

Creator’s take: 

Patrick Mahomes used the prime-time stage of Sunday Night time Soccer to remind the world that he stays — even in a golden age of quarterback play — a one-of-one proposition. The Chiefs celebrity was unstoppable in a 41-31 win over the Bucs, gleefully shredding Todd Bowles’ well-regarded protection. The spotlight that can play at some point throughout his Canton-induction sizzle reel? The scramble and acrobatic flip to Clyde Edwards-Helaire for an absurd landing within the second quarter. “The NFL hasn’t seen something like Mahomes — I promise you that,” Travis Kelce stated after the victory. “You noticed it at present — he’s the Houdini of our period.”

Patrick Mahomes is formally ridiculous.

One week after wanting listless in a loss to the Indianapolis Colts, Mahomes and the Chiefs offense confronted a frightening job Sunday night time in opposition to a Tampa Bay Buccaneers protection that allowed simply 27 factors over the primary three video games of the season.

Creator’s take: 

The Chiefs have taken the ball from their opponent simply 4 occasions. Solely 4 groups have pressured fewer turnovers, and all of them have shedding data. The Chiefs are doing a pleasant job of pressuring the quarterback, so it figures the turnovers will come. Within the meantime, the Chiefs have made essentially the most of their 4 turnovers. They transformed every right into a landing.

Don’t look now, however Clyde Edwards-Helaire has both eclipsed or come near 100 complete yards in two of the Chiefs’ final three video games. Oh, and, proper, Patrick Mahomes stays a soccer magician from one other realm. How cool are the little wrinkles on this offense from Eric Bienemy? Some velocity choice, some wildcat, a ton of misdirection…why can’t everybody no less than attempt to appear to be the Chiefs?
