Things got a little hairy in the fourth quarter, put Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs looked overall dominant in their 34-20 win over Lamar Jackson and the Ravens on "Monday Night Football."
Mahomes was sensational, completing 31 of 42 passes for 385 yards and four touchdowns (and adding another score on the ground). What was most impressive about the performance was his poise against the pass rush: against the most blitz-heavy defense in the league, Mahomes completed 17 of 21 passes against the blitz for 219 yards and three touchdowns. No throw was better than the 49-yard bomb on third-and-14, off his back foot with a man in his face, perfectly into the arms of a wide open Mecole Hardman.
Also on full display was the deep bag of tricks Kansas City offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy has at his disposal. They have weapons in Hardman, Tyreek Hill, Sammy Watkins, Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Travis Kelce ... and they're throwing shovel passes to fullbacks and fades to left tackles. I mean, just look at this play from early in the third quarter. A wildcat handoff, reverse, flea-flicker screen pass. It's a lot of action for just 7 yards, but boy is it fun to watch.
The Ravens looked like they were going to be able to run the ball all night long with an impressive first possession, but the Chiefs' defense bowed up to force a field goal. From that point on, the only first-half score for Baltimore came on a 93-yard Devin Duvernay kick return; Jackson simply couldn't find a rhythm most of the night.
Still, after trailing 27-10 at the break, the Ravens were able to climb back into the game. A fumble recovery set up a field goal to make it a two-score game. Following a Chiefs turnover on downs, Jackson was finally able to lead a touchdown drive, finding Nick Boyle for a 5-yard touchdown pass on the first play of the fourth quarter to make it a one-possession game.
Mahomes was the great equalizer though. While he's known for the flashy long balls, he showed he also has the ability to hit the short and intermediate passes as he led a lengthy touchdown drive to push the lead back to two scores.

8:15 p.m. — That was one hell of an introduction by Samuel L. Jackson. Can we get him to do that more often?
