Yes, the Chiefs offense is built around and known for QB Patrick Mahomes, but Kenneth Walker III, the newcomer running back, is who makes the Kansas City offense go. He did Sunday, accounting for three total touchdowns: one on the ground to go with 102 rushing yards, and two through the air on four catches for 41 yards.
Mahomes looked like his right arm was hanging from tendons after he was sacked by Jets LB David Bailey late in the first half. But Mahomes didn’t miss a snap and finished 23-for-31 for 242 yards, two TDs and no INTs.

IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect Zero A week ago, Jets receiver Adonai Mitchell had a career-high 142 receiving yards and a TD. On Sunday, with top wideout Garrett Wilson out with a concussion, Mitchell produced zero receptions on seven targets. He had at least two drops, the most egregious of which went through his hands on the best deep ball Geno Smith threw all game.
5: That’s how many sacks the Chiefs had in the game. They entered the day with nine all season, tied for fewest in the NFL, and played four games this season without recording a single sack.
