Patrick Mahomes threw for 225 yards and two touchdowns, guiding the Kansas City Chiefs to a 30-27 win against the Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium on October 4. Despite being pressured and sacked twice, Mahomes' big plays helped the Chiefs improve to 4-0 on the season. Key moments included a 41-yard pass to Xavier Worthy that set up a touchdown and a 55-yard connection with Tyquan Thornton, who later left the game due to injury. The Raiders, now 3-1, struggled with mistakes, including a penalty that cost them points and missed tackles. Both teams will have another chance to face each other later this season.
