Patrick Mahomes tied legendary Chiefs QB’s franchise record with 3 TD performance vs. Panthers

With his three-touchdown performance against the #Panthers, Patrick Mahomes tied a legendary QB in the #Chiefs’ record books.

The Kansas City Chiefs narrowly defeated the Carolina Panthers in Week 12, due in no small part to the efforts of Patrick Mahomes, who threw three touchdown passes in the defending Super Bowl champions’ tenth win of the season.

With his final six-point score—a three-yard connection with veteran wideout DeAndre Hopkins—Mahomes tied Chiefs legend Len Dawson’s record for most touchdown passes in franchise history, further cementing his status as one of the most accomplished athletes of his era.

Dawson, who helped Kansas City win Super Bowl IV in 1969, was widely regarded as the best quarterback in Chiefs history before Mahomes took the NFL by storm in 2018.

Mahomes has led Kansas City to three more titles and has led the Chiefs to victories in the last two Super Bowls.

Expect Mahomes to take sole ownership of this impressive record in Kansas City’s matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders on Friday.

Chiefs HC Andy Reid tied Hank Stram for most regular season wins in franchise history

Andy Reid tied Hank Stram for the most regular season wins in #Chiefs history after Kansas City’s victory over the #Dolphins in Week 9

The Kansas City Chiefs have become the most dominant franchise in the NFL under Andy Reid’s watchful eye since the veteran head coach joined the team in 2013.

The Chiefs’ victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 9 marked Reid’s 124th win as Kansas City’s skipper, which tied him for first place in team history for wins as a head coach with Hank Stram.

The long-tenured coach is already the winningest leader in Philadelphia Eagles history. Reid can become the first skipper in league history to hold franchise records in the category for multiple teams with a win against Philadelphia when the Chiefs return to action in Week 11.

Accomplishments like this are rare in the NFL, where long-held records are seldom broken. Reid’s outstanding track record as a head coach is second to none, and while there remains plenty of room for Kansas City to improve before the playoffs, his steady hand should put fans’ minds at ease as the Chiefs embark on the second half of their 2023 campaign.
