The Kansas City Chiefs took down the Los Angeles Chargers 34-28 in overtime on Thursday Night Football at SoFi Stadium. The fourth quarter was absolutely bonkers (with 29 points scored), and then the game finished on a crazy touchdown on the first drive of overtime.
Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce took a five-yard Patrick Mahomes pass and turned it into a 34-yard touchdown for the win. It was an incredible effort from Kelce, giving him 191 receiving yards on the night. The play also featured quite shoddy tackling attempts from the Los Angeles defense.
First, here’s how the play looked and sounded on the Fox broadcast, with Joe Buck — who had an eventful night — on the call:

“Absolutely heartbreaking. The Chargers played their tails off here this evening, and all they have to show for it is a loss.”
