Bears at Chiefs - Week 3 - Record: 2-1

With about seven minutes left in the first half, the Chiefs had the ball at around their own 15, and Patrick Mahomes took the snap, ran around a bit, and just before getting plastered flicked the ball 40 yards downfield dropping it right in the breadbasket of a laser-focused Justin Watson right at the sideline.

40 yards down the field.

It.

Was.

Amazing.

Go ahead, go back to your DVR'd copy and look at it again. We can talk all about the no-looks and behind-the-backs and the dipsy-doodlidoos or whatever incredibleness we see from the guy. This one will likely get lost in a blowout game we all knew was inevitable, and lost in the endless highlight reel of Mahomes' plays, but wow. Maybe it won't be recognized as much, but maybe that's not such a bad thing in that the dude is, just like they called the NBA's premiere slamdunker Dominique Wilkins, the human highlight film.

It is just what it is.

And we can just always enjoy it, over and over and over -- we are indeed too spoiled right now in the Chiefs Kingdom.

As for a more full examination of this one, it was that blowout and everyone was in on the fun, and I'm really not going to get much more into it. We had a family event for most the afternoon and evening, and it is late right now and I must work tomorrow. I'm hoping to remark a bit more tomorrow, hopefully. I wanted to add some remarks about other Chiefs things that transpired this week, things that were quite notable. But that's for later.
