Patrick Mahomes II Fantasy Football Rankings & Outlook

PFM Fantasy Outlook

Patrick Mahomes delivered his most productive passing game in several weeks at Denver, completing 30 of 41 passes for 321 yards and three touchdowns without an interception. Kansas City lost 28-24, but the quarterback's performance was a marked change from the previous two games, when the Chiefs had failed to score a passing touchdown. The offense moved the ball and found the end zone through the air even though the final result went against it. Mahomes gave fantasy managers production without needing a major rushing contribution.

Mahomes now has 1,795 passing yards, 12 touchdowns and four interceptions in seven games. His 321-yard outing came after 165 yards in Seattle, making the week-to-week variation significant. PFM ranks him QB13 for Week 9 against the Jets and QB8 rest of season. Kansas City needs to repeat the passing efficiency while reducing the stalled drives that have hurt it in recent losses. The Broncos result showed the offense can still produce multiple passing touchdowns; another productive outing would do more to establish consistency than the team's win-loss record alone.
