Patrick Mahomes dominant as Kansas City Chiefs cruise past Pittsburgh Steelers
Patrick Mahomes showcased his remarkable skills, guiding the Kansas City Chiefs to the number one position in the AFC with a 29-10 victory against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Mahomes passed for three touchdowns and amassed 320 yards without any interceptions, leading to Pittsburgh's third consecutive loss.
Kansas City came out strong in the first quarter, with Mahomes connecting with Xavier Worthy and Justin Watson for touchdowns, quickly establishing a 13-point advantage.
Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson made a one-yard run that brought the Steelers to within six points at halftime. In the third quarter, both teams exchanged field goals.
Kansas City kicked off the fourth quarter in style with a two-yard touchdown run by Kareem Hunt, and soon after, Travis Kelce grabbed a 12-yard touchdown catch.
Pittsburgh's offense struggled to make progress, with Wilson finishing the game with only 205 passing yards and one interception.
