At this point in time, the Kansas City Chiefs haven’t lost a single game yet for the 2024-25 season. This led superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes to drop a surprising assessment of his team this early into the campaign.
The Chiefs improved to 3-0 after a thrilling 22-17 victory over the Atlanta Falcons, showcasing their resilience in yet another nail-biting finish. The game highlighted the team’s ability to perform under pressure, with Mahomes delivering key plays down the stretch to secure the win. Despite facing a determined Falcons squad, the Chiefs managed to find ways to come out on top.
Defensively, Kansas City stepped up when it mattered most, making critical stops to thwart Atlanta’s scoring attempts. The Chiefs’ ability to bend but not break under pressure proved vital in maintaining their unbeaten record. As the season progresses, their penchant for close games raises questions about their long-term viability as title contenders.
Patrick Mahomes Drops Surprise Assessment of Kansas City Chiefs Amid 3-0 Start
After taking care of business against the Falcons, Mahomes dropped a review of his team in a postgame interview. This can be seen in an article written by Ricko Mendoza for Arrowhead Pride.
“We haven’t played well, in really, all three games,” Mahomes admitted postgame. “We’ve been able to win, and that speaks to the character of the team, the grit, and how we’ve been in these situations before. But I’ll speak especially offensively for me, I feel like I haven’t played very well. That’s not a stats thing. I just feel like I’m missing opportunities whenever they’re out there and not throwing the ball in the exact spot I want it to be at. So, that’s about me getting back to my fundamentals, putting our guys in the right position, and then we got to execute at a higher level offensively. If teams are going to make us drive the field we have to prove that we’re able to do that.”
“I got to get my base right,” Mahomes said, when asked about his struggles on offense. “I think I’m trusting my arm too much on some of those throws. Even the first throw of the game, I just kind of flicked it off balance and didn’t hit Rashee [Rice] going down the seam there. I got to get back to my fundamentals. That’s just stuff that I go through sometimes. Not usually early in the season like this, but luckily for me, I’m not playing my best football and we’re still getting wins. So, I got to get better to make the offense better.”
Fans and analysts will be watching closely to see if the Chiefs can build upon this momentum in future games. While they currently sit atop the standings, the need for more decisive victories will be essential to quiet any doubts about their championship aspirations.
As they continue to navigate the season, the Chiefs will aim to refine their execution and solidify their status as a dominant force in the NFL. If they succeed, the team will get to win their third consecutive Super Bowl, a feat no one has ever achieved in the league.
