More Mahomes magic: Chiefs QB has a great TD on a trademark sidearm pass

We should never get used to Patrick Mahomes' greatness.

Mahomes' first touchdown pass on Thursday night was fantastic. Maybe it wasn't shocking to see, just because we've seen him pull off similar tricks dozens of times in his career.

Mahomes didn't have anything open on a first-and-goal play so he started to scramble to his right. He was nearly sacked but had a nifty sidestep of Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Drue Tranquill to keep the play alive. Mahomes kept looking downfield and then, as only a few people on the planet can do, he saw Jerick McKinnon and snapped off a sidearm throw to him after a pump fake.
