The Chiefs started Sunday in last place in a tight AFC West race. After their 41-14 victory at the Las Vegas Raiders, they’re in first.

Patrick Mahomes passed for 406 yards and five touchdowns and the defense was solid for the third straight game. They’ve now won three straight, too.

There was much to discuss after the game, and Star columnists Sam Mellinger and Vahe Gregorian, beat writer Sam McDowell and host Blair Kerkhoff break it down in this podcast. They also look ahead to this weekend’s game at home against the division-leading Dallas Cowboys.
