The Kansas City Chiefs remained undefeated with a 30-24 win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night.

Patrick Mahomes led a 10-play, 70-yard drive on the first possession of overtime, culminating in a Kareem Hunt two-yard touchdown run that won the game.

Mahomes completed 34 of 44 passes for 291 yards and three touchdowns, the most scores he has thrown for in a game this season. Receiver Deandre Hopkins, playing in his second game with the Chiefs, caught eight passes for 86 yards and two touchdowns.

Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield threw for 200 yards and two scores in defeat. Because Kansas City scored on the opening possession of the extra period, Mayfield and the Buccaneers’ offense couldn’t get on the field.

Monday’s game was back and forth, as the lead changed multiple times before the end of the fourth quarter.

Tampa Bay took a 7-3 lead in the second quarter on a Rachaad White touchdown run before Hopkins caught his first score of the night to give the Chiefs a 10-7 lead they would take into halftime.

The Bucs scored 10 straight points in the third before Kansas City answered with back-to-back touchdowns in the fourth. Trailing 24-17, Mayfield led a 71-yard scoring drive in one minute and 49 seconds to tie the game in the final minute of the fourth quarter.

It was an impressive offensive effort from Tampa Bay, which was without receivers Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. Tight end Cade Otton led the team with eight catches for 77 yards.

After starting 3-1, the Buccaneers have lost four of their last five to drop to 4-5. They play the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10.

The Chiefs are now 8-0, in first place in the AFC and the only unbeaten team in the NFL. Their next game is at home against the Denver Broncos.
