After falling behind 10-0 after the first quarter, Mahomes led the Chiefs to 17 unanswered points even without top receiver Rashee Rice, who left early in the opening quarter after suffering a knee injury.
The three-time Super Bowl champion completed 19 of 29 passes for 245 yards, a touchdown and an interception while spreading the ball around to six different receivers. Mahomes has completed at least 65% of his passes in all four games this season.
After leading the Chiefs to a 4-0 start for the fourth time in seven seasons, Brittany took to Instagram to make a congratulatory post about her husband.

After three punts, a fumble and an interception on their first five drives, the Chiefs offense rebounded with two touchdowns, a field goal, a missed field goal and one punt on their next five drives.
Mahomes completed 3 of 4 passes for 92 and a touchdown on Kansas City’s two touchdown drives. His lone TD came on a 54-yard strike to rookie Xavier Worthy.
The 29-year-old QB improved to 9-2 against the Chargers in his career. His only losses came in a 29-28 defeat in 2018 — his first year as a starter — and a 30-24 loss back in Sept. 2021.
