Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes lifts Chiefs in second career start

CARSON, Calif. -- Patrick Mahomes served notice in his one and only start as a rookie last season he had the ability to be a high-quality NFL quarterback.

He served notice on Sunday that it was no fluke. Mahomes threw for 256 yards and four touchdowns in leading the Chiefs to a 38-28 win over the Los Angeles Chargers.

Mahomes' favorite target was Tyreek Hill, who caught seven passes for 169 yards, including a 58-yard touchdown on Kansas City's third pass of the game.

That play put the Chiefs ahead 14-3.
