Raiders’ Jack Jones figured out that stopping Patrick Mahomes is how you beat the Chiefs

Easier said than done!

The Kansas City Chiefs have officially gotten to the point where opponents feel comfortable in bashing an entire side of the ball.

That’s exactly what Las Vegas Raiders cornerback Jack Jones did when talking about stopping the Chiefs’ offense, as Jones gave expected respect to quarterback Patrick Mahomes… and not much else.

“We’re not worried about them,” Jones said on Thursday, via Raiders digital reporter Levi Edwards. “It’s Patrick Mahomes we’ve got to stop. You know, the magician. You stop the magician, then the act is over.”

Whew, that’s a fierce indictment of the non-Mahomes members of the Chiefs offense from Jones, who will face Kansas City on the road this Sunday.

While it’s not entirely true that just stopping Mahomes will completely shut down the Chiefs when you factor in the team’s solid offensive line, reliable tight end in Travis Kelce and ascending rookie wide receiver Rashee Rice.

However, how often do you actually slow down Mahomes? He’s the best quarterback in the NFL for a reason, even if Kansas City isn’t quite having the type of season on offense the team is accustomed to with Mahomes.

However, Mahomes and the Chiefs might try to prove Jones’ words wrong once these two teams square off in an AFC West clash this weekend.
