Overview
- Trailing 20-9 in the fourth quarter, Patrick Mahomes threw for a season-high 352 yards, hitting Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy on pivotal late conversions to fuel the rally.
- Harrison Butker went 5-for-5 on field goals, forcing overtime with a 25-yarder before winning it from 27 yards for a 23-20 final.
- Kansas City’s defense forced consecutive three-and-outs to end regulation and start OT and sealed momentum when Drue Tranquill dropped Jonathan Taylor for a loss on third-and-one.
- The Colts managed just 255 total yards as Taylor was limited to 58 rushing yards on 16 carries and Daniel Jones went 2-of-8 passing in the fourth quarter and overtime.
- The result moved the Chiefs to 6-5 with improved playoff odds (Next Gen Stats: 55%) and left the 8-3 Colts lamenting late-game execution as players and coaches called for better finishing.
