Well, the Kansas City Chiefs might be back. 

Despite an 0-2 start, the Chiefs have won back-to-back games and just defeated the Baltimore Ravens by 17 points in Week 4. 

It was an all-around effort from Kansas City, and a very encouraging one from top to bottom after some puzzling games to begin the year.

Brent Sobleski of Bleacher Report named some winners and losers after Week 4, and there was no question about Mahomes making the winners' column. 

"It's amazing what getting an actual honest-to-goodness vertical threat back can do for an offense—although playing against arguably the NFL's worst defense doesn't hurt," Sobleski wrote. "With Xavier Worthy back on the field for the Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs got rolling offensively in a big way. Mahomes cooked the Ravens to the tune of 270 yards and four touchdowns—his first four-score game since 2023."

Mahomes rose to the occasion, throwing for 270 yards with four touchdowns and zero interceptions as Xavier Worthy led the team in targets (8) and yards (83) while being tied with five receptions. 

The last few weeks had plenty of questions about the Chiefs, and rightfully so, but they aren't going away just yet, as Sobleski says. 

"After the Chiefs lost their first two games, there was no shortage of hand-wringing about the status of the reigning AFC champions. One would think y'all would know by now. The Chiefs aren't dead until they are dead." 

Mahomes had a total of three touchdown passes combined in the first three games, but he threw four alone in Week 4, and each to a different pass-catcher. 

Mahomes also had his best completion percentage of the season (67.6%) while throwing for the most yards (270) and most yards per attempt (7.3). 

Why anybody is surprised at Mahomes' high level of play is, well, not the smartest after everything he has accomplished in his NFL career. Oh, and Mahomes became the youngest QB in NFL history to throw 250 touchdown passes. 

Now, the Chiefs have two straight wins, and they face the Jacksonville Jaguars and Las Vegas Raiders in two of the next three with the Detroit Lions sandwiched in the middle.
