Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who joined Kansas City in the offseason, got a touchdown pass from Mahomes in the second quarter. Noah Gray’s TD put the Chiefs 20-7 up at halftime.
It was Travis Kelce, who scored his eighth touchdown in the second half, to take his team to 27-10. Now, the Chiefs are 48-3 in games they hold their opponents to less than 27 points in the Patrick Mahomes-era. The quarterback has 1200 yards and 8 TD over the last three games.
“1200 pass yards in 3 games? Legend. MVP. MAHOMES,” a social media user said.
“Patrick Mahomes is on pace for 5,545 yards and 47 TD,” another one pointed out.

The win came at a cost for Kansas City: wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster was placed in the concussion protocol after a helmet-to-helmet hit by Jacksonville safety Andre Cisco early in the game. The blow left Smith-Schuster motionless on the turf for a moment, though he eventually stood and walked off with some help.
The Jaguars are off next week before playing the Ravens on November 27. The Chiefs visit the Chargers next Sunday night.
