Patrick Mahomes stood on the fringes of his gyrating teammates, looking over as the glob of red-clad Chiefs moved in rhythm to celebrate Kareem Hunt’s second touchdown of the night with a choreographed celebration dance.
When they zigged, he zagged. When their hands went down, his stayed up. When they slid, he hopped.
So the Chiefs quarterback wunderkind might be able to throw for 300 yards in six consecutive games, but he can’t exactly bust a move — at least not in rhythm with the rest of his team.
Other than a pick in the third quarter, it was the only time Mahomes and his teammates looked out of sync in the Chiefs’ 45-10 route of the Bengals (4-3) for Andy Reid’s 200th career win Sunday night.
