The Kansas City Chiefs remain undefeated after their win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on \u2018Monday Night Football\u2019 in Week 9 and hold an 8-0 record heading into Week 10.<\/p>\n

For most of the season, the Chiefs\u2019 perfect start was attributed to Kansas City\u2019s outstanding defensive unit, which has been among the NFL\u2019s best.<\/p>\n

However, since the Chiefs\u2019 acquisition of wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and two resurgent performances by tight end Travis Kelce, it has been Kansas City\u2019s offense, led by reigning Super Bowl MVP Patrick Mahomes, that has swung the outcomes of the defending champions\u2019 games.<\/p>\n

The experts at Pro Football Focus took notice of Mahomes\u2019 stellar performance against the Buccaneers in primetime, and made him the Chiefs\u2019 highest-graded player:<\/p>\n
