VIDEO: Chiefs Build Massive Lead Over Raiders on Patrick Mahomes' TD and Juan Thornhill's Pick-6
By Sean Facey
Patrick Mahomes' injuries didn't slow him down one bit, that much is clear. The standout quarterback for the Kansas City Chiefs flashed his wheels against the Oakland Raiders, scrambling into the end zone for a dazzling 13-yard rushing touchdown midway through the second quarter.
But things didn't stop there for the Chiefs.
On the Raiders' ensuing drive, quarterback Derek Carr delivered a pass directly into rookie defender Juan Thornhill's hands, who promptly took it back to the house for six more points.
Talk about a massive swing in momentum. Oakland went from being right in the thick of things to trailing by three scores in less than three minutes.
There's still plenty of game left, but it looks as though the Raiders have dug themselves into quite a deep hole.
