dq. Patrick Mahomes Applauds Travis Kelce After Dominant 28–7 Victory Over Washington Commanders
It was vintage Kansas City — fast, fearless, and flat-out dominant. The Chiefs rolled past the Washington Commanders with a 28–7 victory, and once again, the connection between Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce stole the spotlight.
After the game, Mahomes didn’t hold back his praise for his longtime teammate and friend. “He’s the heartbeat of this team,” Mahomes told reporters. “When we need a spark, it’s always 87 who gives it to us. What he does on the field — and in the locker room — can’t be replaced.”
Kelce finished the night with another stellar performance: multiple clutch catches, a touchdown that left defenders scrambling, and that trademark grin that says he’s having the time of his life. But beyond the stats, it was the chemistry between Mahomes and Kelce that had fans talking.
Head coach Andy Reid echoed Mahomes’ words, calling the duo “the best quarterback–tight end connection the league’s ever seen.” And it’s hard to argue. When Mahomes rolls out and Kelce breaks free, defenses know what’s coming — but still can’t stop it.
As Arrowhead erupted in cheers, Mahomes’ words summed it up best: “We play for each other — that’s what makes it special.”
The Chiefs are back in rhythm, and with Mahomes and Kelce leading the charge, it’s clear: the kingdom is ready for another deep run.
