Winning a game when everything went terribly wrong is the perfect delight. The same happened with the Mahomes family this time around! Patrick Mahomes’ aunt blamed her disappointment on the Kansas City Chiefs offense; however, the latest victory proved her wrong.
On Sunday, the Chiefs were facing off against the Las Vegas Raiders, where the franchise did something unexpected. Even Mahomes’ aunt, Tinesha Mahomes, placed the maximum blame on the GM, Brett Veach, for failing to sign Tyreek Hill. She said having Hill with the Chiefs could have made a tremendous difference. Although Aunt Mahomes found happiness recently, Momma Mahomes already knew the Chiefs would win!
Randi Mahomes cheers on the Chiefs!
The Chiefs were set to face off against the Raiders in Week 12 after the upset by their last season’s Super Bowl rivals. This matchup was important for Patrick Mahomes and his squad to win, especially when the franchise’s offense stood at the threshold.
Before the clock struck 4:25 p.m. ET, Mahomes’ mom, Randi Mahomes, shared a tweet before the matchup with her fans cheering for the Chiefs. She tweeted, “Chiefs let’s do this!!!” In support of her and the Chiefs, many fans boosted the squad’s morale and wished for the Chiefs’ victory.
Kansas City defeated the Silver and Black with 31-17, and surprisingly, this time, the offense took the lead in contributing one more point in the Chiefs’ points table tally.
Coming off a loss in Week 11, the Chiefs were looking for a strong reply to their haters. The constant backlash on the Chiefs’ offense, especially on the wideouts after Tyreek Hill’s exit, was hollowing the franchise from one side. But in the Raiders’ game this time, the Chiefs’ offense bounced back under rookie Rashee Rice.

The Chiefs made a strong comeback, securing a 31-17 win and boosting their season record to 8-3. Travis Kelce achieved a historic milestone, surpassing 11,000 career receiving yards. Despite concerns about receiving options, Rice stood out with an impressive game, recording eight out of 10 catches for 107 yards and a touchdown.
This performance marked his best in the league and helped him earn the top wide receiver spot for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefdom.
