Patrick Mahomes threw the first three touchdowns in the Chiefs vs. Eagles game came three different ways so, yes, Mahomes' usual unbelievable passing is back.

Even though the Chiefs came into Sunday's game in last place in the AFC West, Mahomes seemed relaxed with the passes he completed, especially because the two wildest passes resulted in touchdowns, believe it or not.

For the first Chiefs touchdown of the game, Mahomes threw an underhand pass to Clyde Edwards-Helaire. It looked as if he was in an arcade playing skeeball or bowling, according to some fans. It was anything but a normal football pass; however, it got the job done putting the Chiefs on the board.

Their second touchdown of the game looked the most normal — just a typical overhand pass to Tyreek Hill.

Then, in the second quarter, Mahomes threw a shovel pass to Jody Fortson Jr. for the touchdown. 

Before the play, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce acted like he didn’t know what the play was. But once Mahomes threw the pass, Kelce realized Mahomes knew what he was doing, so he celebrated anyway.

Twitter was flooded with reactions from fans watching the game although, because Mahomes has completed crazy passes in the past, these throws weren’t too unbelievable for everyone watching. But, since this year hasn’t been like any other Mahomes season so far, everyone appreciated seeing a glimpse of what he is known for: insane football skills.
