In the days leading up to the Chiefs’ game on Oct. 14 at New England, Patriots safeties coach Steve Belichick saw something unusual on Kansas City’s game tapes.
Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes had completed a left-handed pass less than two weeks earlier against the Broncos. That play popped out to Belichick, who is the son of Patriots head coach Bill Belichick.
“I remember last time getting ready for them, Mahomes was completing left-handed passes for first downs,” Belichick said Monday in a conference call. “Now he’s completing no-look passes. So, it just keeps getting more and more challenging with these guys.
