Then the Patrick Mahomes/Andy Reid Chiefs did what the Tom Brady/ Bill Belichick Patriots did so often in their two-decade heyday. They exerted their will on the game, scoring 17 points in 5 minutes, 35 seconds of game action from the 35-second mark of the second quarter until Clyde Edward-Helaire's touchdown catch with 10:11 remaining in the third.
Hunter Henry: The Patriots tight end apparently has the rapport with Zappe that we thought he had with Mac Jones back in 2021. After catching two touchdown passes in Zappe's first start of the season in last Thursday's win over the Steelers, Henry was the Patriots' most effective pass catcher again against the Chiefs. He finished with seven catches - six before halftime - for 66 yards, both team highs. He also punctuated one of the Patriots' best and boldest offensive plays of the season, catching a 16-yard touchdown pass on fourth and 2 midway through the second quarter that tied the score at 7-7.
