Mahomes Set to Rewrite the Rules in Sunday Night Football Showdown — What You Can’t Miss! – Page 3

It probably feels even more odd that we have the 0-2 Chiefs playing tonight. Kansas City is no stranger to the primetime games, but it is a stranger to losing two games in a row, and even more strange is that they started the year dropping games to both the Chargers and the Eagles. After making three straight Super Bowls, it would be a bit silly to count them out, but you have to have more concern for the Chiefs than any other year with Patrick Mahomes at the helm. The problem is clearly on offense, which again, seems a bit silly with Mahomes as their quarterback. Right now, the leading rusher on the team is Mahomes. Their leading receiver is Hollywood Brown with 15 receptions for 129 yards. Mahomes has only thrown two touchdown passes, and his lone interception came off a deflection from the typically sure-handed Travis Kelce. To make matters worse, that was in the redzone and could’ve given the Chiefs a chance to turn the tide against the Eagles. They face the Giants this week, a team that looked awful in one week and great in the second. The only good news for Kansas City is that its defense has looked good in both games.
