Patrick Mahomes’ opening drive ends with an interception
The Chiefs were on the losing end last week against the Bills after a game-ending Mahomes interception. The turnover bug followed the former league MVP to San Francisco as the opening drive also stalled due to an interception. The early miscue caught the eye of many on Twitter following the action.

Mahomes really needs to stop forcing passes when there's no window in sight. It's the first quarter… relax and play your game

Brutal start for Mahomes, who should be credited for 2 INT on the same throw. Just rifled into coverage.

What a terrible interception thrown by Patrick Mahomes.

Chris Jones sacks Jimmy G
The criticism of referees regarding roughing the passer calls continues to haunt Jones. He reminded everyone of how versatile he is on the defensive line by overpowering defenders from the edge to take down Jimmy Garopollo. Twitter users were excited to share their thoughts on Jones’ latest conquest.

Mecole Hardman scores multiple touchdowns
The speed and skills of Hardman have never been questioned, but he hasn’t always been able to take advantage of opportunities. The former Pro Bowl special teams star was a weapon, all game scoring on a touchdown reception and a 25-yard run in the first half and another rushing score in the fourth quarter. Chiefs fans on Twitter were pleased to see Hardman so productive on Sunday.
Hardman making it look easy ⚡️

Skyy Moore muffs another punt losing the fumble
The struggles on punt returns continue for Moore as he muffed another punt leading to a red zone recovery for San Francisco. Moore has impressive speed, and elusiveness makes him an ideal returner, but he still isn’t comfortable in the role. Critics on Twitter called out the rookie and questioned if he should be allowed to continue as the punt returner long-term.

Skyy Moore should play offense, not special teams. Part 872.
— Matt Verderame (@MattVerderame) October 23, 2022
Get Skyy Moore off of the punt returns. He didn't return them in college and he isn't good at it now. It is enough

Joshua Williams with an interception in the endzone
Williams was called upon last week to defend Pro Bowl receiver Stefon Diggs to little success but had an opportunity to redeem himself against the 49ers. The rookie HBCU graduate secured a clutch second-quarter interception to hold San Francisco to no points deep in Chiefs territory. Fans praised him after seeing his growth and for representing HBCU football.

Frank Clark takes down Garoppolo in the endzone for a safety
A rough start to his season has many wondering if this is the end of his career. The Pro Bowl lineman responded with a strong performance, including a second-half safety on 49ers’ QB Jimmy Garoppolo. Twitter fans shared their thoughts on Clark’s moment and future in Kansas City.
This type of Frank Clark hasn’t existed in 3 years. He smelled blood and went for it. I wish he had this motor more often. https://t.co/lxAJJCGVo0

Man we need a healthy Frank Clark so bad!
— Samantha Thomason (@dannysgurl83) October 23, 2022
49ers fans have to hate Frank Clark he turns into prime Lawrence Taylor every time they face off.
— Pranav Sriraman (@PranavSriraman) October 23, 2022
Wow. Frank Clark just did that to Trent Williams…he’s one of (if not THE) best LT in the game and Clark just dusted him. He’s having his best game since the 2020 postseason!
