KANSAS CITY, Mo. – For 12 glorious seconds, nearly 74,000 pairs of eyes at Arrowhead Stadium trailed No. 15 in red as the Kansas City Chiefs’ quarterback deked a speedy linebacker, spun through two defenders and dove into the end zone for a 27-yard touchdown run that, for all intents and purposes, ended the AFC championship game.
Nevermind the fact the score gave the Chiefs only a four-point lead, and that there were still two quarters left to go in Kansas City’s historic 35-24 victory, or even that the run was arguably the greatest play of Patrick Mahomes’ career (which is saying something).
