From start to finish, the Kansas City Chiefs didn’t make things comfortable in their 30-24 overtime win over the 1-12-1 Houston Texans. That will happen when the offense turns the ball over twice by a fumble, and the entire team commits 10 penalties for over 100 yards.
The negative did its best to overshadow a brilliant performance from quarterback Patrick Mahomes. He had 36 completions on 41 pass attempts; the 88% completion rate was the highest in NFL history for a quarterback with at least 40 passes in a game. It came with three touchdowns, two through the air and one scrambling.
