Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are battling Philip Rivers and the Los Angeles Chargers tonight in the legendary Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.
The stadium sits 7,500 feet above sea level so footballs are going to sail in the air, which Mahomes showed during warmups. The reigning NFL MVP, who’s trying to lead the Chiefs to a bounce-back win, launched a pass 70 yards in the air like it was absolutely nothing.
We all know Mahomes is a ridiculous talent, but this is still really darn impressive because the QB just flung it out there and also hit his target, who was standing down field.

I would love to see how far he could throw a pass in that air if he really stepped into it and gave it his all.
Please make that happen in tonight’s game, football gods.
