Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes fooled the entire Las Vegas Raiders' defense on Sunday.
The Chiefs were facing fourth-and-1 from their 40-yard line when they lined up to go for it. It looked like they were just trying to draw the Raiders offside, especially when Mahomes blurted out, "This [expletive] never [expletive] works, man." He then took the snap and handed it off to running back Kareem Hunt, who got the first down.

The Chiefs were up 7-0 at the time and scored two more touchdowns in the second quarter to take a 21-0 lead into halftime.
						The NFL community on social media was loving the fakeout from Mahomes.
"Give the Academy Award to Patrick Mahomes. Incredible fake," ESPN's Brooke Pryor tweeted.
"The Chiefs just faked trying to draw a team offsides, not sure I’ve seen that one before," another X post read.
"Mahomes "It never F"N works man" is CLASSIC so good on that fake. NFL films make it a gif immediately," another fan tweeted.
"Lol. I also feel like this maneuver would work 100/100 times. Get the defense to think only about not jumping at all at getting a penalty, then snap it. Not sure how you defend that," Yahoo's Frank Schwab tweeted.
"Chiefs back to trolling. That one month of everyone thinking they were dead was fun tho," another tweet read.
The Chiefs are one half away from improving to 4-3. They will still be in third place in the AFC West, but the appear to be heating up at the right time.
You can watch the rest of this contest on CBS. Jim Nantz and Tony Romo have the call.
