The Titans had this one. They really had it. They put up a 17-7 second-quarter lead in the AFC Championship game over the Chiefs, thanks to a sleight-of-hand touchdown run by Derrick Henry and a tricky touchdown pass to offensive tackle Dennis Kelly. But when you’re the Chiefs, and you have Patrick Mahomes on the field, anything is possible.
Mahomes threw two touchdowns to Tyreek Hill to keep the game close, and then, with 11 seconds left in the first half, Mahomes did THIS from the Tennessee 27-yard line.
Was Mahomes helped by the rules and officiating perceptions that protect quarterbacks whether they’re in or out of the pocket? Perhaps. But Mahomes hasn’t needed any refs to put up the ridiculous numbers he has so far this postseason.
First, it was a five-touchdown performance against the Ravens in the divisional round, bringing Kansas City back from a 24-0 deficit. Now this, and the Chiefs went into the half with a 21-17 lead. No matter what happens in this game, Patrick Mahomes continues to define his legend as a player.
