Patrick Mahomes has tried to wash away the memory of last year's opening loss to Detroit with the Baltimore awaiting him Thursday.
The Kansas City Chiefs insist that they are not thinking about last year's opener against Detroit, when they celebrated their latest Super Bowl triumph with a flag-raising ceremony and were promptly beaten by the Lions. Patrick Mahomes is chief among them. The three-time Super Bowl MVP had by far the worst Week 1 performance of his career that night, completing barely more than 50% of his passes for just 226 yards with his fewest touchdown passes and first interception in six season openers.
He's completed more passes for more yards and more touchdown passes than any quarterback in NFL history through 96 starts, and every game he seems to climb another historical chart. One big step will likely come Thursday night, when Mahomes — with 28,424 yards passing — needs just 84 to pass Hall of Famer Len Dawson for the career franchise record.
