Patrick Mahomes: I Told Chiefs Teammates 'I've Got to Be Better' amid Early Struggles

Amid a surprising 3-4 start to the season, Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are looking for answers to get back into the AFC playoff picture.

Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Mahomes said he's shouldering a lot of the burden for the team's struggles:

"I've said something to them that I've got to be better. At the same time, they have that mindset that they're going to try to build me up. It's a thing where you're not going to play your best game every single game and that's when you have to rely on your other guys to kind of step up and make plays for you.
