NFL fans can't believe ridiculous trick play run by Chiefs against Raiders to score a TD which was later ruled out

Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs are known for their ingenious take on offense. The Chiefs head coach, over the years, has experimented with multiple unique styles of offense thanks to the likes of stars like Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce blessing his team's roster.

But one play call they almost ended up pulling off against division rivals the Las Vegas Raiders might just be the craziest one yet. Early in the first half of the game, staring at their opponent's red zone, the Chiefs huddle started to spin around in a circle.

Soon after, they quickly scrambled to the line of scrimmage to where Jerick McKinnon pitched it to Patrick Mahomes, who then tossed it to Kadarius Toney for a touchdown. Unfortunately, the play was ruled out as an offensive holding call on Creed Humphrey. But on the very next play, Toney got his redemption as he scored a touchdown to further extend Kansas' lead.

Understandably enough, NFL fans around the world couldn't believe what they just watched:

The Raiders have had a rather disappointing run this season. Starting off with playoff hopes, their dreams were soon dashed by an underwhelming start with new head coach Josh McDaniels. The Raiders had nothing to play for in this game but pride. The Chiefs ensured that they left the Las Vegas side with very little of that too.


Patrick Mahomes blows past Drew Brees' all-time NFL record in Chiefs' game against Raiders

Patrick Mahomes' electric start to his NFL career continues. The quarterback is no stranger to breaking records, and the Kansas City quarterback set a new one in Week 18.

Mahomes broke Drew Brees' record for most total yards (passing, rushing, receiving) in a single season (5,562 in the 2011 season).

Mahomes entered the final week of the season with 5,048 passing yards. However, the quarterback's ability to scramble and churn out rushing yards (329 yards) also played a vital role in setting the new record.

WIth the way he continuously improves, it seems likely more records will follow.
