Patty Mills+FollowEnd of an Era: Chiefs’ 9-Year AFC West Reign Is OverWith tonight’s loss, the Kansas City Chiefs have officially had their 9-year run of dominating the AFC West snapped. That means no top-4 seed via the division crown — and as of now, KC is on the outside looking in for the playoffs. To make matters worse: it was a brutal night for Patrick Mahomes — arguably one of his worst home starts. Completion % in the 40s, a season-low passer rating, and three interceptions. It’s wild how fast things shift — a team that looked like a perennial SB-contender just a few seasons ago is now fighting just to get in. #NFL #Chiefs #AFCWest #Mahomes #NFLPlayoffs #FootballTalk 162Share
Jamie Juarez+FollowThe Chiefs Have Already Lost More Games in 5 Weeks Than They Did All of 2024This is officially one of the roughest starts of the Andy Reid–Patrick Mahomes era. The offense looks shaky, the turnovers are piling up, and the aura of invincibility KC built over the past decade is starting to crack. Kansas City is still dangerous — you can never count out Mahomes — but this team looks nothing like the one we saw last season. #NFL #Chiefs #Mahomes #AndyReid #AFC #FootballTalk #NFL2025 #ChiefsKingdom 20Share
Edwin French+FollowMahomes Records the Worst Game of His Career — Passer Rating 19.8Patrick Mahomes just had the roughest outing of his career. Mahomes finished the game with a 19.8 passer rating — the lowest he has ever posted in an NFL start. His previous career low? 44.4 last season against the 49ers. This was also the first time in Mahomes’ career he’s thrown 0 touchdowns and 3 interceptions in a single game. For a QB known for being almost turnover-proof, this was uncharted territory — and it happened at a moment when Kansas City desperately needed a win. A rare off-night for one of the most consistent players of this era. #NFL #Mahomes #Chiefs #NFLStats #FootballTalk #AFCWest #KansasCity 20Share
