WINNER: PASS DEFENSE

Tom Brady finished with 169 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. He’s been a below average quarterback this year and the Chiefs continued to limit him through the air.

Aside from surrendering 95 yards and a touchdown to Julian Edelman, the secondary was able to contain the other receivers with the next best performance coming from Jakobi Meyers (35 yards off of one catch).

This has been a weakness for the Chiefs in years past, but even with rookie Rashad Fenton out, the rest of the secondary was able to get the job done and that’s all we can ask of them.

WINNER: TRAVIS KELCE

The fumble was bad, I get that, but Travis Kelce was a big time factor in this game. He had seven receptions for 66 yards and also had the wildcat touchdown run that went for four yards. Kelce continues to be Patrick Mahomes’ go-to guy and the Chiefs needed someone to step up on offense, and once again, that guy was Travis Kelce.

WINNER: HARRISON BUTKER

We can’t let my guy Harrison Butker go unappreciated! He went three for three on field goal attempts and knocked through both extra point attempts, giving him yet another perfect game. Way to go, Butker!
