The Chiefs looked like the Chiefs again last night, and Patrick Mahomes even threw a left handed pass, check it out.

NFL Twitter certainly didn't waste any time getting in on the Chiefs return.
I was never on the record saying thy left. I felt they would be okay. And still do.
It's going to get very interesting next week, the Chiefs play the Cowboys.
What the heck was DeSean Jackson doing on this play?
........
I can't speculate on the exact cause, but it seems as though he was in a state of confusion.
The video almost makes it look like he laterals the ball, but it was punched out. He doesn't seem to run in the correct direction , which would be toward the end zone.
That's what it looks like to me, he ran in the wrong direction, I'm completely baffled by this.
The Raiders just didn’t show up last night, KC looked dominant but next week they could play like the worst team in the league and the Raiders could look unbeatable. Until the playoffs get here, I’m not making any more predictions on any teams.
Ofcourse we will say that “This is a weird season” but honestly every season is like this
KC looked very good last night. they have a very difficult test next week. If they are able to do to Dallas what they did last night, I will be ready to say they are coming back.
this NFL season has seemed to be one of upsets. great looking teams falling to really terrible ones at times.
hard to gauge.
George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.
I'm still trying to figure out that DeSean Jackson play, I always thought you were supposed to run toward the end zone.
The announcers said DeSean Jackson possibly got turned around and lost his sense of direction
but I'm not sure, bizarre play anyway and luckily the Chiefs got a huge turnover.
I agree with Craig, next week against Dallas will be a big test to see if the Chiefs are returning to form.

I think it was more that he was trying to avoid a defender so he turned left with the intention of then
heading towards the end zone but before he could do that the ball was punched out.

It is obvious he was changing directions because if he continued in the same direction after catching the ball he would have been clobbered by #27. You just don't normally see NFL athletes having to come to a complete stop in order to change direction.

Derek Carr is reminding me a lot of the old AFC west nemesis Philip Rivers.
Very good regular season numbers but just can't seem to get his team over the hump and into post season glory.
Who knows maybe Justin Herbert will turn out that way also although way too soon to tell.

As an interesting aside (in my opinion) to your point, let me say that ...... After reading your comment, my first thought was to write something disagreeing. The reason for my disagreement would have been that Rivers was much more in the elite category of QB than Carr. But then I had the thought that good, great, or elite regular season numbers are all the same in the end if they never lead to , as you say, post season glory. Hope that makes some sense! Lol
Maybe he thought he was back in LA and the white jersey was a Ram he was lateraling to
