Patrick Mahomes threw for 299 yards and three touchdowns, Kareem Hunt found the end zone twice, and the Kansas City Chiefs shook free from a tie game at the half for a 28-7 victory over the Washington Commanders on Monday night.
Mahomes was nearly perfect after throwing two early interceptions, one of which was hardly his fault. One of his touchdown passes went to good buddy Travis Kelce, giving him 83 scores to tie Priest Holmes for the Chiefs career record, and another went to Rashee Rice, who caught nine passes for 93 yards in his second game back from a six-game NFL suspension.
It all helped the Chiefs (5-3) win for the fourth time in five games and extend a streak of dominance over Washington. They have won nine straight in the series and 11 of 12 overall; the lone loss came way back on Sept. 18, 1983.
