You can't go 1 for 9 on your last 9 drives and stop Mahomes. Giving him the ball back after 3 plays just so you burn 2 minutes of clock instead of 30 seconds of clock won't matter much. 5 of the 9 drives were 3 plays or less.
Keep giving Mahomes the ball back even with this great defense will be a disaster. Remember the 1985 Bears Monday night football game. Greatest defense of all time got it handled to them by the Dolphins that night. I know that is just one isolated example but it is hard to stop these teams that play like the Chiefs. That style of play rules in today's NFL and the best way to stop Mahomes is to extend drives, move the ball, and continue scoring.
