I’m not that upset. This game is totally different if Kelce doesn’t fumble. It was a good game and the Bengals are a really good team. As long as we take care of business the rest of the way, there’s a very good chance we have the one seed. Let’s wrap up the AFCW next week!
Can’t even blame the refs too much this time (granted they didn’t help). That Kelce strip and the defense playing like trash were the deciding factors.
Can they stop calling it a rivalry? A rivalry would assume we are winning some of those games. With how the team has played them we don't deserve to be their rival.
It’s a damn good thing this isn’t another Sunday night game. It will take hours for my blood pressure to normalize. Love you Chiefs Nation. We’ll see these guys again in the playoffs.
57 isn't getting any presents from Mahomes this Christmas after that last series. Just quitting on the block and watching your QB run for his life on a critical drive? Jesus christ.
Welp, we seem to be the only team in the entire NFL who can't get anywhere near their QB. And the only team that doesn't find it necessary to cover JaMarr Chase at all. We also suddenly get really dumb in the redzone against them (although that's been the case quite often lately).
Defense got fucking manhandled all game long. Absolutely embarrassing performance from them. Couldn't get pressure and couldn't fucking tackle. Absolutely mind-boggling to watch. Kelce just allowing the Bengals to strip him helped cost us too. But most of all, the fucking Officiating... This Officiating, man, I don't even know what to say about it. I hate to say "The Refs cost us this game" but they certainly helped. The Pick we got getting taken away by a soft as fuck DPI call. The soft as fuck RTP against us on the same drive. And then letting the Bengals get away with tons of bullshit like one of their players literally faking an injury to prevent using a TO. What a thoroughly disappointing and frustrating game all across the board.
Okay, just here to say I respect good teams and respected the Bengals for being legitimately good enough to beat KC multiple times, but faking an injury in an injury prone league riddled with injury controversy is lower than low. Hate the Bungos now, sorry.
I legitimately believe that our D-line thought the play was dead on that 3 & 11. The left tackle jumped early and we had assumed it would be called a false start. No other explanation for a completely baffling decision to not even attempt to tackle Burrow.
I have a feeling Cincy beats Buffalo which means we just have to do our job on our cupcake remaining schedule. We’ll get our chance when it matters and hopefully this lights a fire now that we are 0-3 against the Bengals. GGs to them
Thuney was missed. Toney was missed (I know it’s still early with him, but he’s dynamic AF). And Mecole was very much missed IMO. Skyy may not be it. Growing appreciation for Mecole over here.
Him and gay are overrated especially gay tbh. Jones,Dunlap,Sneed, and McDuffie are the only guys on this D truly worth a damn. Everyone else is slightly above average or is just a JAG
Fr though. If he had made that 3 pt fg, we would have tied. Then last score wins and all around-- good game, no hard feelings. This was just crap on our end. Bolton and Gay were our only saving graces on the defense and they weren't even top notch this game. Ugh! Gotta shake this loss off.
So many drives stopped/saved by the refs. They don't get to play the team with the biggest target on their back every week. Good luck making the playoffs.
There is somethings that we can learn from this. Burro, Chase, Higgins are all great players and also all picked in the first 33 picks in there respective drafts. So just go out and put that kind of WR talent around Pat. They are top picks for a reason they are Reliable. Cause now you have 3 rushers getting to Pat and really no answers for this. Or solve it another way just get over that hump.
It seems like every loss is our own fault. Penalties on crucial plays and one or two plays a game where we give up. Defense needs to step up, but we won't ever beat a good team again if we can't clean up the costly penalties and special teams mishaps.
Sure we will buddy. Played our most complete game all season and are enjoying a mini-bye before the home stretch. About time you have to play on our field. Even outside fans of the other 30 teams are tired of seeing every Bills/Chiefs game at Arrowhead
Man its so sad watching how terrible our defense is with tackling! I feel like its been a issue for years but watching Thornhill in particular makes me damn near stroke out
I wonder what the score would've been like if we didn't get that buns RTP penalty and that weak ass DPI call that led to the Bengals getting that early TD. Oh well, always having to beat the refs in this league.
I’ll take 15 any day. Joe Burrow is this team’s kryptonite, not Mahomes’ kryptonite. Our offensive play in our losses is still something 31 other teams would take in a heartbeat. Our defense, specifically our secondary, absolutely fucking folds.
I keep telling myself it is a rebuild year. We weren't supposed to be first in the afc. Losing to the Bills and the Bengals gives us motivation come January.
This! The crazy part is the bengals gut pressure with 3 and dropping 8 guys into coverage….. we pretty much always rushed 5… so burrow had more time throwing into a coverage with less guys, that won’t cut it.
Had to stop and check to make sure he had the ball because if he touches him there we lose on the penalty. Rodgers ruined this league by having glass fucking clavicles.
Worst of all rodgers’ clavicle was broken on a pre-season game and mike mccarthy left him in the game when they were far ahead. Another reason to hate mccarthy
Really liked Justin Reid coming in as a signing just to be a solid player. He definitely has room to grow here as a player here in KC and I think he will. I get that football is a competitive game and all that. I don't want to see this dude talk again. Our pass rush man. So much better now vs at this point last year. Still can't sack Burrow.
Yeah I wanted a reply but couldn't keep the game on. I don't even understand what happened he looked like he was standing in front of him for 2 full seconds
Man I just wish we could have even a middle of the line defense. Hardly any turnovers. Poor tackling. No pass rush. Poor against both the pass and run. So frustrating.
Worst the defense has looked this season IMO. I think they’ve played well overall this year but SO many missed tackles today. And did we even have two QB hits?
Our coordinators need to go. This shit is not cutting it. That defensive performance was beyond abysmal. And Bieniemy’s situational play calling is absolutely atrocious. Why the hell are we trying to go 20 yards downfield on a 3rd and 4 against a team that can’t stop our running game? Absolutely pathetic from pretty much everyone today.
Hey everyone. Just remember that the bill is about to come due forBurrow, Chase, and Higgins. So that’s 110 mil/yr at the going rate for those three. They won’t be able to keep the team together. Fuck them, fuck their fans, and fuck their city. And yes I’m aware I’m being a sore loser
lol yes we can. we will just get rid of boyd. you guys got rid of hill we can survive without higgins or chase honestly but all we have to do is get rid of mixion and boyd,and we are fine.
Not for another two years for Burrow/Higgs, and not for like 4 years for Chase. However, they have a lot of defensive players up for free agency next year.
Post game thread
Bills mafia here, you have been a great opponent, all respect due, go Chiefs!!
before kelce fumbled the ball, the guy was pulling on his shirt. i'm confused - is that legal?
Is pulling the jersey legal? Yes
Chase pushes off literally every time. I don’t understand how he has any catches at all that aren’t called OPI.
I’m not that upset. This game is totally different if Kelce doesn’t fumble. It was a good game and the Bengals are a really good team. As long as we take care of business the rest of the way, there’s a very good chance we have the one seed. Let’s wrap up the AFCW next week!
Well said. We got this.
If is for grade schoolers if is not reality Chiefs got rolled own it
All the media guys seem so excited when KC loses. I think Boomer Esiason had to change his drawers on the post game show.
Fortunately for you guys, Romo couldn’t take mahomes dick out of his mouth for the entire game.
Well he is a Bengals hall of famer so…
Can’t even blame the refs too much this time (granted they didn’t help). That Kelce strip and the defense playing like trash were the deciding factors.
the first bengals drive, PI and then roughing the passer were total trash.
Can they stop calling it a rivalry? A rivalry would assume we are winning some of those games. With how the team has played them we don't deserve to be their rival.
"A team beats the Chiefs more than once = NEW RIVALRY" -the media, probably
I was saying the same thing. Wouldn’t consider this a rivalry.
It’s a damn good thing this isn’t another Sunday night game. It will take hours for my blood pressure to normalize. Love you Chiefs Nation. We’ll see these guys again in the playoffs.
Chiefs Kingdom*
Chiefs with a lead are the worst team in football. The worst. We absolutely cannot just put a game away.
We were actually doing exactly what we needed to running and passing to Travis on that drive. Took a fluky fumble to turn the tide.
Performance of the game tonight…let’s hear it for the officiating team!! 🖕🏼
Yes the officiating crew really should’ve done something about Kelce fumbling on a key drive. Please
I'm sorry but I can't do the refs thing. That's just sour grapes.
Anyone blaming the refs or the offense, or hell even Butker is small brain. This defense is garbage
People are blaming your kicker for missing a 55 yarder?….
Did butker miss a fg?
Yeah totally a worry rounghi6the passer call smh..grow up my guy
You mean Spags who can’t make a single adjustment
I, for one, thank Orlando Brown Jr. for betting on himself. Saved us a lot of money in the future.
Hell yeah it did. He can peace the fuck out in the off season
Can we give Cincy OBJ as a Christmas gift? And Wylie while we are at it?
And give them 4 wr 1s?
It appears we had the 2nd best Quarterback today
Correct
Hey at least we never have to play the Bengals in 2022 again! Maybe 2023 will be our year....
57 isn't getting any presents from Mahomes this Christmas after that last series. Just quitting on the block and watching your QB run for his life on a critical drive? Jesus christ.
The bengals were supposed to be the easiest opponents this year. What the fuck happened
cough
In what universe?
Welp, we seem to be the only team in the entire NFL who can't get anywhere near their QB. And the only team that doesn't find it necessary to cover JaMarr Chase at all. We also suddenly get really dumb in the redzone against them (although that's been the case quite often lately).
Excuse me? We play the freakin Texans…
In what way? I think you have them mistaken for Houston Texans.
Who said that? lmao
man I hate when we lose, makes me feel like the whole rest of the week is gonna be bad...and I have law school finals this week
You should probably just consider a new career, your profession is f'd since the Chiefs lost this game. Maybe try and be an auto mechanic or something
yep a loss on Sunday ruins my Monday every time
Hey, in all seriousness good luck! Own that shit
The bengals LT was jumping all night long. Literally almost every play. Not a single call
Naw, use this as an example of how laws(rules) and how they are enforced equally is very important.
Exactly!!! I called that shit out loud!

Win a Super Bowl
I don't even get what that dumb shit is supposed to mean
Defense got fucking manhandled all game long. Absolutely embarrassing performance from them. Couldn't get pressure and couldn't fucking tackle. Absolutely mind-boggling to watch. Kelce just allowing the Bengals to strip him helped cost us too. But most of all, the fucking Officiating... This Officiating, man, I don't even know what to say about it.

What a thoroughly disappointing and frustrating game all across the board.
1 for complaining about refs
Nah don't blame the refs. That loss was on our team.
Okay, just here to say I respect good teams and respected the Bengals for being legitimately good enough to beat KC multiple times, but faking an injury in an injury prone league riddled with injury controversy is lower than low. Hate the Bungos now, sorry.
Dey been watching the World Cup, maybe? Soccer players are always pulling that sort of crap.
I legitimately believe that our D-line thought the play was dead on that 3 & 11. The left tackle jumped early and we had assumed it would be called a false start. No other explanation for a completely baffling decision to not even attempt to tackle Burrow.
The Bengals are the new Indy to the Chiefs.
I'd argue more like the Steelers of old.
Indy is still Indy to the Chiefs
Still can't beat the Colts either apparently
Good Game Guys!!
Good game. Cincinnati Chili is an offense to anyone with class or tastebuds. But good game, nonetheless.
Eat a bag of dicks
Yup, GGs. Don’t worry about the downvotes, some salty fair weathers in here today. See you in January
Good game, bud. Congrats on the win.
I have a feeling Cincy beats Buffalo which means we just have to do our job on our cupcake remaining schedule. We’ll get our chance when it matters and hopefully this lights a fire now that we are 0-3 against the Bengals. GGs to them
What can you say? Joe Cool is a LOT better than the Chiefs defense.
Burrow is good, no doubt. But I’m tired of all the credit going to him. Chase, Higgins, and Boyd we’re getting WIDE open all game.
There is only one Joe Cool and Burrow isn't it.
and the refs. Don't forget about their contribution to the Bengals offence.
Just because the Bengals beat us 3 times in a row, doesn’t mean they can beat us 4 times
Let me borrow those red color glasses
Agreed. Anybody can beat a team 3 times in a row. 4? Not a chance!
Statistically, I love this
Thuney was missed in this game. Orlando still sucks ass. We're still going to the super bowl
Thuney places D-End?
No way
Thuney was missed. Toney was missed (I know it’s still early with him, but he’s dynamic AF). And Mecole was very much missed IMO. Skyy may not be it. Growing appreciation for Mecole over here.
This is what happens when we treat this as a "revenge game." Bengals are gonna live rent free in the team's head until they move on
Yup…we shouldn’t be circling games. They should.
Everyone chill. This loss sucks but we are still tied for the best record in the AFC with a pretty easy last 5 games.
Awesome outlook... Or we can be realistic and say we lost to a playoff team exposing ourselves and lost the #1 seed. Fucking chill man
We don’t own the tiebreaker with Buffalo so…
[удалено]
Get the fuck outta heeya
See you in January
Spags is the kind of D coach where he is only good when we have a lead. And since we can’t score and take early leads he doesn’t belong here
He's only good when an elite offense gives him free piggyback rides. Lead or not, I've hated the Spags decision since day one.
Jaws still opened they sacked Mahomes with 3 dudes
Teams are just going to keep putting him #15 in that situation. Until he makes them pay the price and so far we’re paying for it.
the bengals being more hyped up for our revenge game is fucking nauseating. This defense has zero pride or soul.
I don’t know what he was looking for? The bengals knew and they used it to confused him.
Him and gay are overrated especially gay tbh. Jones,Dunlap,Sneed, and McDuffie are the only guys on this D truly worth a damn. Everyone else is slightly above average or is just a JAG
Butker cost us all 3 games against the Bengals
You guys blaming your loss on your kicker for missing a 55 yarder while ignoring Cincy gifted you 4 points by dropping a lay-up TD is … interesting
Fr though. If he had made that 3 pt fg, we would have tied. Then last score wins and all around-- good game, no hard feelings. This was just crap on our end. Bolton and Gay were our only saving graces on the defense and they weren't even top notch this game. Ugh! Gotta shake this loss off.
They dont pay him 50m a year...
KC is going to be very fun as long as we have Mahomes and Reid, but I don't see another SB win unless LT and DL get fixed.
Both tackles need a major upgrade
Spags needs to go but that won't happen
So many drives stopped/saved by the refs. They don't get to play the team with the biggest target on their back every week. Good luck making the playoffs.
This fucking sucked. Hopefully we demolish the broncos next week
Bengal owns us!!!! 3 times in a row is not a coincidence!!!!!
There is somethings that we can learn from this. Burro, Chase, Higgins are all great players and also all picked in the first 33 picks in there respective drafts. So just go out and put that kind of WR talent around Pat. They are top picks for a reason they are Reliable. Cause now you have 3 rushers getting to Pat and really no answers for this. Or solve it another way just get over that hump.
9-0 at home
Thanks Kelce. This is on you 100%
I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted….The fumble changed the tempo of the game. If Kece did not fumble the game was over pretty much.
It seems like every loss is our own fault. Penalties on crucial plays and one or two plays a game where we give up. Defense needs to step up, but we won't ever beat a good team again if we can't clean up the costly penalties and special teams mishaps.
Yep. When we lose it’s because we beat ourselves. Muffed punts missed field goals wild Kelce fumbles.
And fuck Buffalo. They will drop at least 1 or 2 more. Chiefs remaining schedule is baby shit soft.
Sure we will buddy. Played our most complete game all season and are enjoying a mini-bye before the home stretch. About time you have to play on our field. Even outside fans of the other 30 teams are tired of seeing every Bills/Chiefs game at Arrowhead
Kelce’s first fumble of the season is the only reason we lost this game.
Just a reminder Higgins could’ve been on our side if we didn’t draft CEH, that would’ve been really nice right about now
Knowing Reid he would’ve barely played then they trade him to a team and he suddenly is their #1 receiver. Happens all the time
why the FUCK did we kick a field goal. unconscionably stupid fucking decision
Yep that was a pathetic call
Man its so sad watching how terrible our defense is with tackling! I feel like its been a issue for years but watching Thornhill in particular makes me damn near stroke out
Been that way for a while. Never finish tackles.
I wonder what the score would've been like if we didn't get that buns RTP penalty and that weak ass DPI call that led to the Bengals getting that early TD. Oh well, always having to beat the refs in this league.
Don't forget the ineligible men down field penalty that killed a drive that showed all 5 linemen still blocking behind the line of scrimmage.
Burrow is the most sacked QB except when he plays KC
We literally had a sack and the defender just stopped in front of burrow. I’m gonna need to watch that again because I’m still confused
Great game. Battle back and forth. Late game turn over by our star was the deciding factor. Hope we meet them again in the playoffs.
Hope we do meet them again, having Hardman and Toney back would be nice !
I’ll take 15 any day. Joe Burrow is this team’s kryptonite, not Mahomes’ kryptonite. Our offensive play in our losses is still something 31 other teams would take in a heartbeat. Our defense, specifically our secondary, absolutely fucking folds.
It comes down to this:
That was an exciting game and felt like a playoff game to me. now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go drink 1 million beers
I keep telling myself it is a rebuild year. We weren't supposed to be first in the afc. Losing to the Bills and the Bengals gives us motivation come January.
This isn’t 2021..
Or it's a clear depiction that we aren't good enough
[удалено]
L
Burrow was getting pressured but his pocket presence is unmatched
This! The crazy part is the bengals gut pressure with 3 and dropping 8 guys into coverage….. we pretty much always rushed 5… so burrow had more time throwing into a coverage with less guys, that won’t cut it.
We need a LT. Then Patrick would have time. Easy Money University Bitch boy couldn't block me.
So if the we can't beat the Bengals and the Bengals can't beat the browns... Are the browns the best team?
Logic may check out
Had to stop and check to make sure he had the ball because if he touches him there we lose on the penalty. Rodgers ruined this league by having glass fucking clavicles.
Worst of all rodgers’ clavicle was broken on a pre-season game and mike mccarthy left him in the game when they were far ahead. Another reason to hate mccarthy
Fuck this bullshit
Oh my God I can’t believe we lost.
Calling it now: 40 points for the chiefs before half time
Broncos are suck. Bengos are new best enemy.
damn cuz I wanted Patrick and Kelce to kiss
Really liked Justin Reid coming in as a signing just to be a solid player. He definitely has room to grow here as a player here in KC and I think he will. I get that football is a competitive game and all that. I don't want to see this dude talk again. Our pass rush man. So much better now vs at this point last year. Still can't sack Burrow.
Clearly he writes checks his ability can't cash
Whoever failed to sack Burrow needs to get cut.
51 Mike Dana was heading for a sack but stood up and slowed down right before he got to Burrow. WTF
The roughing the passer calls got to his head and he blew it
Yeah I wanted a reply but couldn't keep the game on. I don't even understand what happened he looked like he was standing in front of him for 2 full seconds
Mike Danna. Looks like he was off balance coming around the edge, but he just sort of... stopped
Man I just wish we could have even a middle of the line defense. Hardly any turnovers. Poor tackling. No pass rush. Poor against both the pass and run. So frustrating.
Thornhill and Reid have horrible run support, Bolton had a off game and Williams as usual a step behind smh
Worst the defense has looked this season IMO. I think they’ve played well overall this year but SO many missed tackles today. And did we even have two QB hits?
God I hate the bengals
But the Bengals love to see us
Still no tackle sack against Burrow. This defense should be ashamed of themselves!
We played scared, 55 yarder instead of going for it and getting a lead? Miss me with that shit
That pissed me off so bad.
Mahomes was hurt on that play, we didn't really have a choice.
[удалено]
Sounds similar to last year…
Bengals are a team that consistently covers the spread, and we are a team that almost never covers the spread, it is what it is
I'm calling it now.
Really dislike Spags. He is eminently predictable and just cannot make adjustments
Bengals were better today. Period
User name checks out.
Skyline chili dogs fucking suck
Ohio fucking sucks
Not bad after a long night of drinking TBH
100% agree
Looking unprepared every week now, it's time to start getting Nagy ready as the next HC
Delete your account. Dumbass takes like this are why this sub absolutely fucking painful to interact with beyond game day threads.
Jesus, I thought I could say some stupid stuff when I’m upset
Fuck this team
You can go elsewhere. Here the weather is fair in Buffalo these days.
Our coordinators need to go. This shit is not cutting it. That defensive performance was beyond abysmal. And Bieniemy’s situational play calling is absolutely atrocious. Why the hell are we trying to go 20 yards downfield on a 3rd and 4 against a team that can’t stop our running game? Absolutely pathetic from pretty much everyone today.
This guy Chiefs
Time to move on. Win out and we’ll be fine
Lost the one seed and now Hurts is gonna be the clear MVP favorite. What a fucking monumental failure
So be it. Petty Pat is the best Pat.
Hey everyone. Just remember that the bill is about to come due forBurrow, Chase, and Higgins. So that’s 110 mil/yr at the going rate for those three. They won’t be able to keep the team together. Fuck them, fuck their fans, and fuck their city. And yes I’m aware I’m being a sore loser
lol yes we can. we will just get rid of boyd. you guys got rid of hill we can survive without higgins or chase honestly but all we have to do is get rid of mixion and boyd,and we are fine.
Not for another two years for Burrow/Higgs, and not for like 4 years for Chase. However, they have a lot of defensive players up for free agency next year.
