The 2021 NFL season is not going as per plan for Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs. The 2019 Super Bowl champions are at the bottom of their division as we approach the midway stage of their campaign. Coach Andy Reid’s boys suffered their 3rd loss of the season on Sunday at the hands of the Buffalo Bills.

Quarterback Josh Allen put on a stunning offensive display as the Bills ran out comfortable winners by a 38-20 scoreline at the Arrowhead Stadium. The home team looked helpless on Sunday against a strong Buffalo unit. The Kansas City Chiefs now face an uphill battle at securing a playoff spot in 2021.

And that just got tougher with another Chiefs star suffering a major injury.
