Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is not exactly thrilled about the NFL forcing the two-time defending Super Bowl champions to play three times over an 11-day span in the coming weeks.

In an NFL season on pace for a record number of close games, no team has been better at pulling them out late than the two-time defending champions.

A thunderous doink helped the Kansas City Chiefs gain some breathing room in the race for the No. 1 seed in the AFC after the Buffalo Bills fell short despite Josh Allen’s spectacular performance.

Matthew Wright kicked a 31-yard field goal that banked off the left upright as time expired, and the Kansas City Chiefs survived another close game, beating the Los Angeles Chargers 19-17 to win their ninth straight AFC West title.

Brock Purdy threw for 255 yards and three touchdowns, and the San Francisco 49ers never trailed in a 36-24 victory over the Seattle Seahawks.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are counting on the youngest kicker ever drafted to bring stability to a position that has been one of the league’s most tumultuous over the past four years.

Patrick Mahomes threw four touchdown passes to Travis Kelce, the Chiefs overcame an early 17-point deficit along with a dubious roughing-the-passer penalty, and Kansas City extended its mastery of the Las Vegas Raiders, holding on for a 30-29 victory.

The Jaguars are in the market for another kicker after waiving Matthew Wright on Wednesday.

Trevor Lawrence has never endured anything close to this.

The signature win Urban Meyer has been waiting on arrived Sunday.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have ended their 20-game losing streak.

The losing streak of historic proportions is finished.

Tua Tagovailoa will start but the Miami Dolphins will be without starting cornerbacks Xavien Howard and Byron Jones for Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London.

There’s no shaking off that kind of history. Twenty consecutive losses. Another step back on the field. And almost no chance to catch back up in a division that was there for the taking.

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Josh Lambo is struggling to deal with his errant ways.

Jaguars kicker Josh Lambo won’t play in Thursday night’s football game against the Bengals.

The Jaguars’ losing streak continued Sunday, and one of the biggest problems that could force a change in personnel involves the team’s kicker Josh Lambo.

Picking up the pieces on after another disappointing loss, the Jaguars tinkered with their roster in a big way Monday morning.
