On a 2nd-and-7 play from San Francisco\u2019s 37-yard line, Chiefs quarterback\u00a0Patrick Mahomes\u00a0dropped back to pass, scrambled to his left, faked out a 49ers defender near the sideline, and proceeded to run up the sideline for a gain of 33 yards.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"font-size: 1rem;\" src=\"https:\/\/hotnews.azontree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/GettyImages-2179850882-e1729472633579.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Patrick Mahomes was like, &#8220;I&#8217;m gonna go out of bounds&#8230; nah, never mind.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is awesome. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ko17cTOAbF\">pic.twitter.com\/ko17cTOAbF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MySportsUpdate\/status\/1848132825096003795?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 20, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>That run by Mahomes set up Kansas City\u2019s offense at San Francisco\u2019s four-yard line. The result of that 13-play, 79-yard drive was a touchdown, and with the successful point after attempt the two-time defending Super Bowl champions took a 21-12 lead with 14:13 remaining in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Patrick Mahomes Scrutinized for Sideline Fake<\/h2>\n<p>Mahomes, whose 33-yard run was the longest he has ever had during the regular season, drew criticism on social media for taking advantage of how protected quarterbacks are along the sideline by making the San Francisco defender think he was going out of bounds before he sprinted upfield on his 33-yard run.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGreat escape by Mahomes \u2026 but he has such an advantage because defenders are afraid to hit him full force as he tightropes the sideline,\u201d\u00a0sports analyst Skip Bayliss wrote. \u201cIt\u2019s almost not fair.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am sorry but you can\u2019t give Mahomes the flags you give him when he is allowed to fake like he is going out of bounds and then keep running,\u201d\u00a0another person wrote. \u201cThis is ridiculous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat play by Patrick Mahomes is why defenders should blow up QBs on every run until they are actually out of bounds and you can\u2019t call defenders for penalties if the QB hasn\u2019t completely gone out of bounds,\u201d\u00a0another person wrote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis play is proof that you can\u2019t touch certain QBs and they know it and will take advantage of it,\u201d\u00a0another person wrote. \u201cThese defenders are terrified that if they try to do anything to Mahomes he\u2019ll be out of bounds and there\u2019s a 15 yard additional penalty. It\u2019s not a healthy part of the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Chiefs Beat 49ers to Remain Undefeated<\/h2>\n<p>The Chiefs improved to 6-0 with a win over the 49ers, who fell to 3-3 with the loss.<\/p>\n<p>Kansas City\u2019s offense didn\u2019t do too much through the air in the 28-20 win, but it didn\u2019t need to. Despite Mahomes throwing for just 154 yards and two interceptions, the two-time defending Super Bowl champions rushed for 154 yards and four touchdowns, which helped them win the time of possession (35 minutes to 24 minutes for San Francisco) and get a 28-point win over the 49ers.<\/p>\n<p>Veteran\u00a0Kareem Hunt\u00a0led the Chiefs in rush attempts (22), rushing yards (78) and rushing touchdowns (2) against the 49ers. Mahomes and receiver\u00a0Mecole Hardman\u00a0score the two other rushing touchdowns. Tight end\u00a0Noah Gray\u00a0led Kansas City in receiving with 66 yards on four catches.<\/p>\n<p>As for the Chiefs\u2019 defense, the unit forced three turnovers \u2014 all of which were interceptions thrown by quarterback\u00a0Brock Purdy \u2014 and allowed San Francisco to convert on just 2-of-11 third downs. The 49ers\u2019 run game \u2014 which was averaging 5.0 yards per carry (YPC) heading into this game \u2014 averaged 4.2 YPC against Kansas City.<\/p>\n<p>San Francisco running back\u00a0Jordan Mason, who was second in the NFL in rushing heading into Week 7 with 609 yards, had 58 yards on 14 carries against the Chiefs, an average of 4.1 YPC.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; The\u00a0Kansas City Chiefs\u00a0offense had the ball with a little over a minute left in the third quarter of KC\u2019s Week 7 game against the\u00a0San Francisco 49ers.
