By now, you know the deal when it comes to Patrick Mahomes. Every Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs superstar quarterback makes the absolutely incredible look routine. Why it’s almost as if the sport’s best player makes ridiculous, out-of-nowhere plays in his sleep sometimes.
Though the sheer wizardry Mahomes pulled off against the Denver Broncos was, somehow, a new unique magic trick even for him.
Already leading 6-0, the Chiefs were trying to pull away from their division rival in the early second quarter. When the Denver pass rush managed to flush Mahomes out of the pocket to his right, it wasn’t over. Never one to say die on a play, he broke free from a sack at the last second and tossed a no-look underhand pass to an open Jerick McKinnon — who streaked down the sidelines for a 56-yard touchdown:

I’d throw out another superlative to describe this latest Mahomes creativity, but we’re truthfully running out of apt ways to put his brilliance in proper context. He just seemingly pulls off these kinds of top-tier plays … all the time.
Let’s put it this way: If the man in the Chiefs’ No. 15 jersey has a chance to bury you in any fashion, he’s probably not going to miss. And he’s probably going to do it in the coolest way.
NFL fans were in awe over Mahomes' magnificent creativity on his TD pass to McKinnon
Patrick Mahomes makes decisions that would put lesser QBs in lifetime blooper reels.

First, Patrick Mahomes ended a game against the Broncos with a left-handed pass, and now he's thrown an underhand touchdown pass. Incredible. https://t.co/fQa4OAcj12

Patrick Mahomes just threw as good a no-look pass as Magic Johnson ever did.
