It looked like it was both Mahomes being dialled in and committed to the short stuff early, but also the Raiders failing to have the patience of other teams to let that play out and hope we make a mistake on a long drive.
Honestly, can't see anything wrong with Simms' evaluation that he wants to wait another week before he suggests Mahomes and the Chiefs are back. Obviously he was way off on the prediction but we probably do need another couple of performances like this to feel really confident. Would be good to see Mahomes carve up a cover 2 defence - which I don't think the Cowboys are, but they're a team that should score and put us under pressure. A proper test.
