Patrick Mahomes tosses 4 TDs in Chiefs' runaway win over Ravens

Patrick Mahomes tossed four touchdowns to become the youngest quarterback to reach 250 for his career, and the Kansas City Chiefs evened their record in a marquee AFC matchup against visiting Baltimore by beating the Ravens 37-20 on Sunday.

Mahomes went 25-for-36 passing for 270 yards with his first four-TD game since October 22, 2023. He moved to 6-1 against Baltimore.

In his return to action, speedster Xavier Worthy caught five passes for 83 yards. Isiah Pacheco, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Tyquan Thornton and Hollywood Brown caught TDs for the Chiefs (2-2).

Depleted by injuries that continued to mount, the Ravens even saw quarterback Lamar Jackson leave the game in the third quarter with a hamstring injury.

The two-time NFL MVP finished the game 14 of 20 for 147 yards with a touchdown and an interception. He rushed six times for 48 yards. Justice Hill had two touchdowns.

Baltimore fell to 1-3 for the first time in 10 years.

Jackson opened with an impressive 70-yard drive over nine plays, the final one being the quarterback's sidearm sling to Hill for 11 yards.

The Chiefs stalled with a pair of dropped passes and settled for Harrison Butker's 38-yard field goal at 5:40. The home side added momentum when linebacker Leo Chenal made a one-handed grab to pick off Jackson for the first time this season to stop a second strong Baltimore drive.

Kansas City was effective again on its second drive, but it halted after traveling 79 yards. Butker hit from 23 yards with 10 minutes left in the half.

Aided by Worthy's season-best 35-yard run on a 56-yard drive, the AFC West squad went up 13-7 with four minutes left in the half when Mahomes connected with Smith-Schuster from 4 yards.

With injuries adding up on Baltimore's defense, Mahomes rolled out and tossed an 8-yard score to Pacheco before Baltimore's Tyler Loop made a 43-yard field goal for the 20-10 halftime margin.

Mahomes' third TD was an 11-yard strike to Thornton in the third quarter, and Loop (32 yards) and Butker (31) traded kicks for a 30-13 score.

In the fourth, Brown's 15-yard scoring reception and Hill's 71-yard TD run accounted for the final tallies.
