Patrick Mahomes takes blame for Chiefs' passing-game problems

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Patrick Mahomes on Thursday took the blame for a lack of production from the Kansas City Chiefs' wide receivers and problems with the team's passing game.

"If I start playing better, everybody will start playing better," he said.

Mahomes threw two interceptions in Sunday night's game against the New York Jets. The Chiefs, after taking an early 17-0 lead, had to hang on for a 23-20 victory.

"I missed some opportunities throughout the game and so I've just got to put us in better positions and [start] making better decisions so that the guys can go out there and work for me and make plays down the field.
