Review of the Week 14 action in the NFL including another AFC West title for Kansas City Chiefts
by Press AssociationThe Kansas City Chiefs beat the New England Patriots 23-16 to secure a fourth consecutive AFC West championship.
Patrick Mahomes's tough season continued as his Kansas City Chiefs beat the New England Patriots 23-16, with the quarterback injuring his throwing hand during the road victory which secured a fourth consecutive AFC West championship.
The game started well for the Patriots, who scored a touchdown on their first drive while Mahomes threw an interception on the Chiefs' first trip up the field.
The signal-caller seemed to injure his right hand on the second drive but stayed on the field to help his side score 23 unanswered points, securing the win despite a late New England rally.
