The Kansas City Chiefs have been led by Patrick Mahomes all season long, and Sunday afternoon was no different in a favorable matchup for the AFC West leaders. Mahomes added three touchdowns to his remarkable season, as the Chiefs cruised past the Cleveland Browns on the road, 37-21, to improve to 8-1 on the season. The quarterback threw for 375 yards to overcome an interception, while Kareem Hunt helped out with three total touchdowns on the day.
Hunt ran for 91 yards and two touchdowns, while also catching a scoring pass, as the Chiefs moved their road record to 4-1 this season. Mahomes found Travis Kelce in the end zone twice, as the tight end finished with seven catches for 99 yards in another dominant Chief performance. Their lone loss remains on the road against the New England Patriots on Sunday Night Football.
The Chiefs came in to play averaging 36.3 points per game, leading the league, and surpassed that amount yet again in Mahomes' first professional matchup with Baker Mayfield. Those two set offensive records in college when they squared off in the Oklahoma-Texas Tech showdown in 2016. That game saw the offenses combine for 1,700 yards and was one by Mayfield's Sooners. This matchup was a lot more one sided, as the last-place Browns fell to 2-6-1 in their first game since firing head coach Hue Jackson earlier this week.
Mahomes now has 29 touchdown passes and 3,185 yards in just his second NFL season, which is the most by any quarterback through 10 career games since 1950. He has also now passed for at least 300 yards in eight straight games.
The Browns' loss was their fourth in a row, as Gregg Williams had his first game as the interim head coach. His next challenge will come a week from today at home against the Atlanta Falcons. Meanwhile, the Chiefs return home to host the lowly Arizona Cardinals.
