![]() ![]() But Baltimore soon cut into the Chiefs’ lead again. That play put Kansas City up 35-24 midway through the third quarter. Not until the third quarter did Mahomes connect with one of his leading pass-catchers, finding Travis Kelce for a short dump-off that the tight end took 46 yards, breaking four tackles along the way to find pay dirt. Those two scoring plays sandwiched a touchdown run by backup running back Darrel Williams. The Chiefs fully displayed their abundance of riches at the skill positions as Mahomes’ first two touchdown passes went to less-heralded players Demarcus Robinson (a 33-yarder) and Byron Pringle (a 40-yarder). Jackson got off to a shaky start as two early interceptions by Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu (one returned for a touchdown) loomed large for much of the game. Mahomes completed 24 of 31 passes for 343 yards and three touchdowns and one interception.

And then, with Kansas City driving, Chiefs running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire fumbled at the Baltimore 34-yard line and the Ravens recovered. Jackson's 1-yard touchdown run and flip into the end zone gave Baltimore it's first lead of the game at 36-35 with 3:14 left to play. ![]() Jackson rushed for 107 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries and completed 18 of 26 passes for 239 yards and a touchdown after shaking off two early-game interceptions. The loss was the first in September for the Chiefs, whom Jackson previously called his "Kryptonite," during Mahomes' run as starter. Jackson, the 2019 NFL MVP, and Mahomes, who won the same award the year before, offered no shortage of fireworks as their contest capped an entertaining evening in the NFL, which featured last-second victories by the Dallas Cowboys and Arizona Cardinals and an overtime comeback triumph by the Tennessee Titans. Winless in his first three meetings with Patrick Mahomes since the young quarterbacks became household names during the 20 seasons, Jackson rebounded from a shaky start to deliver an electrifying performance while receiving some crucial help from his defense to give the Baltimore Ravens a 36-35 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday night at M&T Bank Stadium.
