"They have won nine straight in the series and 11 of 12 overall; the lone loss came way back in September 1983. I think it just shows the growth we've had as a team, Mahomes said. Even though we didn't start the way we wanted to on offense, it showed we can battle through adversity and play the brand of football we want to play."
"It was a tale of two halves, said McLaurin, adding that he would take his injury day by day this week. We kind of left some things on the field in the first half that we feel we could have executed. The defense did a great job of getting us the ball back twice. We've got to capitalize on that. The second half, they executed a lot better than us."
The Chiefs beat the Commanders 28-7 as Patrick Mahomes completed 299 yards and three touchdowns after two early interceptions, one not entirely his fault. Travis Kelce caught his 83rd career touchdown, tying a Chiefs record with Priest Holmes. Kareem Hunt scored twice and Rashee Rice had nine catches for 93 yards in his second game back from suspension. Kansas City improved to 5-3, winning four of five and extending a streak of nine straight victories over Washington. Marcus Mariota passed for 213 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions while Terry McLaurin returned for Washington's lone touchdown.
