📌 Key idea:

Patrick Mahomes threw three touchdowns as the Kansas City Chiefs beat the Washington Commanders 28-7 on Monday night.

After two interceptions in the first half, Mahomes found his rhythm after halftime to inspire the Chiefs to a third straight game.

The two-time NFL Most Valuable Player (MVP) completed 25 of 34 passes for 299 yards, finding Kareem Hunt, Rushie Rice and Terry McLaurin for touchdowns in the second half.

Tight end Travis Kelce enjoyed his best performance of the season, with six catches for 99 yards and a touchdown of his own.

The 36-year-old considered retiring after the Chiefs’ Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in February, but committed to at least one more season in March.

The three-time Super Bowl winner said he and tight end Zach Ertz, 34, are making the most of the time they have left in their careers.

“We cherish every one of these games, and we don’t know how much longer we’ll be able to do that,” Kelce said.

The Chiefs have now won four of their last five games, improving their record to five wins and three losses from eight games.

The leaders have lost five of their eight matches, winning three of them.
