3. Patrick Mahomes throwing dimes in the snow
There was an aesthetic beauty to watching him take deep drops and deliver perfectly placed passes all afternoon as the snow fell at Arrowhead Stadium. Mahomes found Tyreek Hill for a 41-yard touchdown on a double move, completed a 29-yarder to Sammy Watkins and completed 11 of his first 12 passes in the Chiefs’ 23-3 win over the Broncos. Overall, he completed 27 of 34 passes for 340 yards. Mahomes posted a completion percentage above expectation of +17.0% — the second-highest mark of any QB in Week 15. He’s first in adjusted net yards per attempt (ANY/A) and second in QBR. The Chiefs have allowed just 11.3 PPG during their four-game winning streak. They’ve had some bumps along the way but appear to be peaking at the right time. Kansas City is currently the No. 3 seed in the AFC and would win a potential tiebreak with New England if the Patriots lose one of their last two.
