The Kansas City Chiefs eeked out a slim victory over the Carolina Panthers in Week 12, and their offense was a surprising bright spot in an otherwise frustrating game for fans in Western Missouri.
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes was in sync with his receiving corps throughout the game, and wasn’t afraid to get the ball to his tight ends in crunch time.
Though the Panthers managed to sack Mahomes five times, the reigning Super Bowl MVP was helped by a breakout performance by Noah Gray, who scored two touchdowns that lifted the Chiefs to victory.
This week, Pro Football Focus released their list of Kansas City’s highest-graded players in the Chiefs’ win over Carolina, and Gray led the pack with a season-high mark of 82.
