There was a feeling of inevitability acro s the NFL world when the Chiefs got the ball back with 1:46 left to play and trailing by four points Sunday night. Everyone watching Brett Connolly Jersey the game at home could feel it. The Chiefs were certainly feeling it. Even Justin Herbert appeared to recognize the Chargers could be in trouble.Los Angeles had taken the lead over Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs on a Herbert touchdown pa s, and yet, with so much time remaining, everyone knew Mahomes was going to find a way.And, as expected, he did. Mahomes drove the Chiefs 75 yards in six plays, needing only 1:15 of that clock to find Travis Kelce for the go-ahead touchdown. Herbert had one last chance with the ball but was pre sured twice and threw an interception with 15 seconds left to ice the ."Never a doubt with one-five right there, I promise you that," Kelce said on the NBC broadcast after the game. "Magic Mahomes does it again, baby."MORE: Part of the magic of Mahomes and the Chiefs is that they make it look so easy, even when they're thinned by injuries. Receivers JuJu Smith-Schuster and Mecole Hardman were ruled out prior to the game, and then the Chiefs lost running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle) and recently acquired Kadarius Toney (hamstring) during the game. It made no difference. Mahomes started the drive with an 18-yard completion to Marquez Valdes-Scantling and then scrambled for another 6. Two plays Denis Malgin Kids Jersey later, a defensive holding penalty on Pro Bowl safety Derwin James kept the drive alive. James was flagged for holding Kelce on what would have been an incompletion on third-and-4.That was all Mahomes needed.

Mahomes said that as the offense huddled to start the drive, there was a simple attitude among everyone: they were going to get it done."There was no doubt that we were going to go down there and score," Mahomes said.Coach Andy Reid said there is "not a lot of thinking" in preparing Owen Tippett Kids Jersey for a drive with 1:46 left."You just go play, and whether you're the receiving part of that or you're the quarterback throwing it, and that's what I saw," Reid said.MORE: At this point in Mahomes' career, there should be little reason to doubt his ability to make a comeback happen. , the Chiefs have won each of Keith Yandle Jersey their past six games when trailing at halftime. , prior to Sunday he was tied for the 12th-most game-winning drives (10) and had the seventh-most fourth-quarter comebacks (10) since becoming the Chiefs' starter in 2018.Sunday was his third consecutive fourth-quarter comeback at SoFi Stadium, a huge reason why he is 5-0 in road games against the Chargers as Kansas City's starter."He just gives you that confidence," Reid said.
