When the Kansas City Chiefs have won this season, it has often been ugly, the defending AFC champions finding a way to eke out a victory even if they did not play their best. 

That was not the case on Sunday, as the Chiefs went to Las Vegas and rolled over their division rivals the Raiders 41-14 behind five touchdown passes by Patrick Mahomes. 

It was the third consecutive win for the Chiefs (6-4), who kept pace in the impossibly tight AFC West, where all four teams now stand between 6-4 and 5-5. 

After a pair of short Mahomes touchdown passes to Tyreek Hill helped give Kansas City a 17-7 half-time lead, Derek Carr needed less than three minutes to bring the Raiders (5-4) back within a field goal as he hit Bryan Edwards for a 37-yard score early in the third quarter. 

That was the last highlight of the evening for Las Vegas, though, as the Chiefs reeled off 24 unanswered points to close the game with Mahomes finding the end zone three more times. 

Mahomes threw for 406 of Kansas City's 516 total yards, while the Raiders managed just 299 in total as they went one of nine on third-down conversions. 

It was the third time Mahomes has compiled at least 400 passing yards and five passing touchdowns in a game, tying an NFL record shared by Hall of Famers Peyton Manning, Dan Marino and Joe Montana. 

Sunday was also the second time Mahomes has thrown for 400-plus yards with five or more touchdowns and no interceptions in a game. According to Stats Perform, he is the only quarterback in NFL history to have two such games in his career.

Kansas City had a pair of receivers top the century mark, as Darrel Williams caught nine passes for 101 yards and Travis Kelce had 119 yards on nine receptions.
