Mahomes and Kelce’s record-breaking milestone!

The recent Kansas City Chiefs X account post shed light on the incredible feat achieved by Patrick Mahomes today. The post said, “A lesson in chemistry. Congrats,@patrickmahomes and @tkelce,” thereby showing this dazzling quarterback and tight end bond on the field.

Initially, the Brady-Gronk duo held this record with 15 touchdowns. However, today’s showdown against the Buffalo Bills allowed Mahomes and Kelce not only to tie the record with the legendary duo but also outdo them. Before today’s game, they had a record of 14 touchdown passes altogether. Today, they had impeccable two touchdowns altogether, which paved their name in the history book as 16 touchdowns together in postseason matches.

This milestone somehow contradicts Rob’s claims about them not being able to reach their milestone, as he said, “I think we will take them down; I think we’ll win. On up and Adams show.” The Brady-Gronkowski duo held the second post of most touchdowns together, followed by the Joe Montana-Jerry Rice duo to the second, respectively. However, this win was also marked another milestone in Mahomes’ career.
