Las Vegas Raiders: Recapping the AFC West in Week 4 of the 2021 NFL season

Kansas City Chiefs Return To Dominance

The Kansas City Chiefs haven’t won a game by double digits since week eight of the 2020 season against the New York Jets, but that all changed Sunday after they went into Philadelphia and beat the Eagles by a score of 42-30.

Patrick Mahomes got out of his September funk throwing for five touchdowns, 278 yards, and one interception.  Clyde Edwards Helaire went for over 100 yards on the ground for the second week in a row finishing, with 102 yards on only 14 carries, and Tyreek Hill went nuts, hauling in three scores.

This was a solid game for the Chiefs as a whole, as they got back to their winning ways, and saw their defense step in against an Eagles offense that has had their moments this season. They were tough against the run, and gutted out a strong victory on the road, and will now head back to Kansas City to host the Buffalo Bills in what should be a monster Sunday Night Football game in Week 5.
