Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes took a while to get going in Thursday night’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers, but once he led his team into the red zone it was six points or bust.
Down 10-0 with about 11:48 left in the second quarter, Mahomes rolled to his right and avoided a few would-be Chargers tacklers.
Somehow, he found running back Jerick McKinnon in space with a ridiculous sidearm throw.
McKinnon caught it at the 2-yard line and ran it in for a touchdown.

The replay of the pass showed just how wild the sidearm throw was. McKinnon was a blocker on the play before he broke free and got in between the Chargers’ secondary to catch the pass.
Los Angeles, however, had a 10-7 lead at halftime.
