Despite Patrick Mahomes throwing for 321 yards and three touchdowns, the Chiefs failed to capitalize on a key opportunity. They led 24-13 before the fourth quarter but were outscored 15-0 in the final frame. The offense's inability to convert on 1st-and-goal from inside the five-yard line proved costly.
