Tyreek Hill is having himself a career day against the Bucs and we’re all enjoying it.

We aren’t sure how the rest of the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers game is going to play out after the first quarter, but we are aware of one thing: for these first 15 minutes, Tyreek Hill is having himself a good time.

The Patrick Mahomes to Tyreek Hill connection is showing itself to be the dagger in the heart of Tom Brady and the Bucs at home in Week 12 with two long touchdowns for the Chiefs, enough to put them up 17-0 before the first quarter was even over.

Check out this first play, which came on the Chiefs third drive and went for a 75-yard touchdown to give Mahomes his first touchdown pass on the day as Hill beats his man over the top and the safety doesn’t come over in time to help.

On the ensuing drive, Hill caps a seven-play drive that ultimately went 90 yards with another catch for 44 yards in which he takes care of business and trots into the end zone.

At this point, again with time left in the first quarter, Hill had an incredible 7 catches for 203 yards and 2 touchdowns, which is only 12 yards off of his career high, which came in a 10-catch, 215 yard effort with 2 touchdowns back in November, 2018 against the Oakland Raiders (the memorable 54-51 shootout loss).

Everyone went crazy on Twitter, of course, after seeing The Cheetah put up such ridiculous numbers so early against such a heralded defense and it started with Chiefs players, both past and present.

Check out what players had to say immediately after seeing Hill take in the second score.

It’s clear that all eyes will continue to remain on Hill to see just how high these numbers can climb as the Chiefs seek their 10th win of the season.
