Patrick Mahomes made a memorable State Farm joke following the Kansas City Chiefs’ dominant 31-0 shutout win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday afternoon.
Going into the game, the Chiefs held a 3-3 record. After a rough start to the season with an 0-2 record, they regained momentum by winning three of their last four games. Hosting the Week 7 matchup, the Chiefs aimed to defend their homefield advantage and keep their winning streak alive in front of their fans.
For Mahomes, the game offered a chance to have some fun against the Raiders’ defense. During a crucial fourth-down play, Mahomes made an explicit statement before snapping the ball, eventually completing the play to convert for a first down. “This fu***** never fu***** works,” he said at the time.
Reflecting on the moment, Mahomes credited his comedic timing to his work with State Farm. “I think it comes from all my State Farm commercials,” he remarked, highlighting the connection between his on-field antics and his advertising experience.
