Patrick Mahomes praises Travis Kelce for Great Performance in post-game interview

In a game that highlighted the Kansas City Chiefs’ resilience, Patrick Mahomes and company emerged victorious over their division rival, the Las Vegas Raiders, despite a challenging first half.

Mahomes, who threw an early interception, praised the Chiefs’ defense for keeping the team competitive by holding the Raiders to minimal gains when field position and momentum were not in Kansas City’s favor.

“Our defense stepped up in a huge way,” Mahomes said. “They kept the momentum on our side and didn’t let the interception put them in a slump.”

Mahomes, typically calm under pressure, acknowledged that while the offense’s mistake created a tough situation, the defense rose to the occasion. They held the Raiders near their goal line multiple times, giving the Chiefs a chance to regain control of the game.Patrick Mahomes Explains Why Travis Kelce Isn't Getting as Many Catches

In addition to crediting the defense, Mahomes applauded wide receiver Rashee Rice for his clutch performance. Rice showed skill in breaking free from coverage, contributing critical plays when Mahomes needed a target downfield. Mahomes noted Rice’s “high-level” play recognition and praised his ability to find openings in zone coverage, saying it’s “stuff you see Trav [Travis Kelce] do a lot,” alluding to the synergy building with the team’s up-and-coming receiver.

Reflecting on their loyal fanbase, Mahomes shared his appreciation for Chiefs Kingdom, which made their presence known at Allegiant Stadium. “Seeing all that red in an away stadium means a lot. It’s incredible support, and we don’t take it for granted,” he said. This enthusiasm was mirrored on the field as Kansas City kept the energy alive with a methodical 19-play drive that wore down the Raiders’ defense.

Mahomes reached a career milestone with 30,000 passing yards, but he shifted the spotlight to his team. “It’s an amazing accomplishment, but it speaks to the organization and people around me,” he said, emphasizing that the Chiefs are a team where every player has a role in their success. “When a number is called, our guys step up and make the play,” he said.

As the Chiefs keep building momentum with a defense and offense finding balance, Mahomes is confident the team will continue to refine their strategies, clean up penalties, and sharpen deep pass attempts to unlock more offensive potential.

“We’re headed in the right direction,” he concluded. “And with each game, we’re showing what makes this team special.”

With the Chiefs’ latest win, they remain undefeated against the Raiders this season, further proving that this team is built for both regular season success and high-stakes moments down the line.
