Overview
- Kansas City improved to 1-2 with a 22-9 road win at MetLife Stadium, dropping New York to 0-3.
- Patrick Mahomes went 22-of-37 for 224 yards with a touchdown to Tyquan Thornton and rescued a live ball by ripping it back from linebacker Bobby Okereke.
- Steve Spagnuolo’s unit intercepted Russell Wilson twice, limited Malik Nabers to two catches for 13 yards, and got 14 tackles from Nick Bolton.
- Execution problems remained as Harrison Butker missed a 40-yard field goal and a long extra point, eight penalties cost 85 yards, and a heated Andy Reid–Travis Kelce exchange reflected visible frustration.
- A demanding run of opponents now looms, and some analysts warn the current offensive inefficiency could threaten the Chiefs’ playoff prospects if it persists.
