A record-setting game from Patrick Mahomes, as the Chiefs beat the 49ers 38-27

The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the San Francsico 49ers 38-27 in their home opener at Arrowhead stadium, running up a 35-10 halftime lead after scoring five touchdowns on their first five possessions of the game.

The 49ers started on offense, and went three and out after a dropped pass and a tackle for loss, and wisely punted out of bounds, putting the Chiefs in business at their own 43.

On their opening drive, the Chiefs looked more like the Chiefs of Alex Smith than Patrick Mahomes, picking up their initial first down with runs from Kareem Hunt and Tyreek Hill, and calling a screen pass to Spencer Ware on third and 15.
