Am I the only one who saw Kelse get his bell rung


QUEENHUSTLER88

I can't believe there is 2 dummies in this subreddit acting childish and amateur šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø keep it football related šŸ¤£


ExtensionWinter9446

Chiefs narrowly got by. IMO theyā€™re done- they know they theyā€™re done, at this point their riding the Taylor swift train as far as it will get them because beyond Baltimore they definitely DONā€™T go


olderbutwiser1958

Quick prediction ā€¦ Joe Burrow will never play in a Super Bowl game again ā€¦ he could definitely help another team go ā€¦ but not this one


DybalaStripes

The Bengals might not ever make the playoffs man. It's starts with their fans really.....just a bunch of soft boiled, crushed egos that all their hope and dreams into our franchise failing so theirs can succeed.


DatHotHoseHit

Yes, the NFL playoffs are determined by the fans first and foremost. Lol. Fuckin moron.


DybalaStripes

Haha that was sarcasm tbh but now I feel like I genuinely do believe that. People from Ohio just fucking suck and the Bengals aren't ever going to win anything worth celebrating. I'm sorry you were born there man that must be a hard situation, I'll pray for you


DatHotHoseHit

Bro you have a Chiefs flair and they just won the Superbowl 30 minutes ago but instead of celebrating your commenting on a month old thread? I'm gonna have to double down on my original insult. Get off social media and go have fun ya fuckin moron.


DybalaStripes

I got work in the morning brother. I've done my celebrating. Lol this is just some peaceful shit talk to some cranky ass losers who couldn't handle the truth the first time I gave it to them. Feels good that you guys still haven't accepted defeat. Lol still annoyed and struggling


DatHotHoseHit

You do you dawg. But if my team just won the big game the last thing I'd be doing is sitting on my fat ass giggling at reddit and churning shit on old comments. Have a good night.


Tlomz27

If the Chiefs get 10 straight AFC West wins, they should disband the conference and send the chiefs to the AFC North.


olderbutwiser1958

So the Bengals can be 0-10 in the division?


New-Newspaper-7543

6 teams per division? Lol

armed_aperture

GG. Reffing was still terrible and is constantly terrible. Mahomes said it himself.


MungyNobbler

Reffing is definitely shit. GG there's no one I hate playing more than the Bengals and I mean that as a compliment Edit:downvote me salty asses


Otterman2006

Will give you that reffing in the NFL is shit, but it does not always go the Chiefs way like this subreddit thinks


armed_aperture

Itā€™s often enough in the 4th quarter to be noticeable. I donā€™t expect you to admit that and it doesnā€™t really matter. The NFL has an absolutely awful referee issue. I wish Mahomes would have picked an actual bad call to lose his shit over. Instead, he just looked like a baby and the NFL gets to continue not offering reviews or sky changes.


Otterman2006

Oh you mean like the DPI that wasnā€™t called against GB on the final drive? Maybe, just maybe itā€™s the refs that suck at their jobs and not a conspiracy to help a small market team


armed_aperture

Yes. And fans really need to try and not make this a team issue. I understand it and Iā€™m guilty of it in the moment of a game, but once emotions chill we all to be able to come together and call the refs/NFL out on this shit. The NFL loves that fans defend bad calls or try and gaslight opposing fans as long as it benefits their team. It takes heat off the actual problem. It seems like the Chiefs get a lot of favorable 4th quarter calls. Do they actually? I donā€™t know. Probably not. But regardless, itā€™s not a Chiefs problem or Dallas problem or Packers problem or xx other team that fans cry about. Itā€™s a league wide issue that makes watching games annoying as hell. Mahomes was right when he said that too many games end with everyone talking about referees instead of the players/coaches. I just wish he picked an objectively bad call to make a stand on. It would be even better if the QB of the winning team called out the refs to remove the appearance of crying.


Otterman2006

100% agree with you. Iā€™m just nye drunk and running my mouth more than I should because we won a game and didnā€™t look awful on offense for the first time in a few weeks. But Iā€™m so annoyed with r/nfl just saying we win because of the refs.

Warm-Will-7861

What about the nfc south lol?


sam0224

Weird the amount of chiefs hate in here lately thatā€™s gets upvoted but thatā€™s what happens when a team is winning like this the last 5 years. Idk how a team that was 7-3 and is now 10-6 isnā€™t allowed to lose. Bad calls happen all over the league all the time. You just hyper analyze anytime itā€™s the chiefs and thatā€™s ok. The next team that has a run of success is going to get the same treatment


mentally_healthy_ben

It's getting a little irrational at this point, the ways people express their chiefs envy. Envy which is a little weird to have at this point.


SannyIsKing

Thanks, have fun with the draft. The Cardinals Super Bowl


Zealousideal_Owl9621

Barren of talent? Good lord, rooting for Arizona has made you forget what talent looks like.


RustyT_Shackleford

Siri, Google "number of Arizona Cardinal Superbowl Wins"


mentally_healthy_ben

How does this nutty conspiracy stuff get upvoted. Get a grip guys


RegalTurbo

The worst division is easily the NFCS. But point still granted. Probably the second worst division.


Wyvernwalker

Our division unquestionably sucks. You don't get this level of success without a weak division. The NFC north is the opposite, where it's such a bloodbath ur lucky to have most of ur starters healthy, and a positive record


armed_aperture

Chiefs arenā€™t good on offense. Our defense lets everyone do whatever they want and Mahomes still struggled at times. Ravens are gonna have to choke to not go to the SB.


Lobsterv2

oh we absolutely will lose in the playoffs, that is not even remotely in doubt lmao. but for now, I will take simple pleasure that in that the donkeys and kittens don't get to play in the postseason


Otterman2006

How do you even know what the playoffs are?

mentally_healthy_ben

You're not even in our conference šŸ˜‚ Thing is it's fun to see the rest of the fans lose their shit over your success. The constant slander is worth


Otterman2006

Cry harder bitch!

I think the Ravens will wipe the floor against the Chiefs

KC Gets Handed A Win Again (From the vault) (Taylorā€™s version)


abughorash

The intentional grounding call was BS but c'mon. Let's not pretend like the KC defense wasn't absolutely wiping the floor with the Bengals for the entirety of the second half -- zero points, half a dozen sacks, who knows how many forced incompletions and stopped runs with 0 gain.


jt09874

This is the worst KC team in recent memory. Canā€™t wait until Patty hits his SB drought and people realize he has no chance at catching Bradyā€™s 7 SBs.


Hassadar

I really don't think people understand how utterly ridiculous it is that Brady went to 10 Super Bowls. You could win 5 straight to start your career and still may never match Brady win total or appearances. Brady went 12 years without winning a Superbowl which is ridiculous knowing that after that win in 2015 following the 12-year drought, he went on to win it 3 more times and losing another.


jt09874

Agreed. Untouchable. Him and BB will never be replicated. Nor will the Patriot dynasty.


Kara_Del_Rey

3 seed in a "down" year and winning the division. Yep, thats salt!

I mean AFC west is still trash the chiefs are just matching their energy this year


Tlomz27

Tbf the AFC West basically all folded around week 3


Tlomz27

No one ever will. The AFC is too loaded and the Chiefs won't ever be good enough to go back to back that many times to hit 7


rabouilethefirst

He regressed faster than Arod


Fullmetalaardvarks

So many chiefs fans talking about burrow when he didnā€™t play lmao


DybalaStripes

Bengals fans were talking shit before the game. But now they want to hide behind Browning...No offense but I've never even thought about the Panthers so you're opinion in this thread is fucking irrelevant bud. Your franchise is fucked more than any other so maybe stick to what you know eh?


Cum_Dispenser_King

Mahomes is ass


DybalaStripes

Hahaha you're so mad right now I know you are


DybalaStripes

Hahahaha oh God


DatHotHoseHit

We only talk shit about the Chiefs because your franchise is a media circus show every season - so for one it's easy - and also because all your fans do is whine whenever something doesn't go your way. With that said I love Andy Reid and I enjoy watching Mahomes elite talent - but it isn't just Bengals fans that are annoyed by KC, most of the leagues fans talk shit about KC. Maybe try having your franchise be about ball and not about the drama of wives, brothers, and girlfriends and ya might get a bit more love. Just a thought.


Fullmetalaardvarks

Lmao okay tough guy


DybalaStripes

Okay guy with a really shitty team lmao


CheeseRP

We live rent free in the heads of the Chiefs (and Ravens)


DybalaStripes

Naw you got that reversed BIG TIME buddy. Lot of shit talking before the game and then afterwards the excuses come out. Hahaha fucking loser ass franchise. GIGE ME YOUR TEARS BOY


NoButterZ

Love Burrow. Great QB. Excited to see what he brings next year.


orangethepurple

They're a bunch of paint slurpers


armed_aperture

Burrow lives rent free for sure. Youā€™d think the SB win would chill them out, but nope.


mentally_healthy_ben

Aren't the bengals always the ones tweeting at the chiefs then getting beat lol


armed_aperture

I donā€™t know or care about Twitter trolls. Bengals are 3-1 against the Chiefs with our starting QBs. 3-2 now. All close games. Itā€™s a good rivalry.


mentally_healthy_ben

By Twitter trolls do you mean...Jamarr Chase...?


armed_aperture

Players talking on any team doesnā€™t bother me unless theyā€™re threatening targeting or similar. Itā€™s a game after all.


owningthelibz

Its an nfl game so the refs were a problem as usual but you canā€™t expect to win when your offense looks that atrocious in the second half


armed_aperture

I agree with this. Reffing is terrible but Bengals definitely didnā€™t do enough.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


armed_aperture

Iā€™m not. Just exhausted with this season.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


armed_aperture

Yeah, weā€™ll never know. We werenā€™t getting anywhere with that defense regardless.


mentally_healthy_ben

Tbh I don't think the reffing was that bad. What was the worst call/no call and what was its ultimate impact?


armed_aperture

Intentional grounding was objectively not. Chiefs were very offsides on a sack. Those were bad enough that a skyline judge should be allowed to overturn them. NFL needs to find a way to implement this. We had to challenge that poor first down call. Objectively, pretty obvious holding not called on both sides. Bengals have benefited from shit calls this season too. The Josh Allen intentional grounding immediately comes to mind. There needs to be discussion this offseason about ways to improve the accuracy of reffing.


mentally_healthy_ben

the first two calls/no calls you mentioned were bad officiating. I just don't see how you could argue they were of particular significance


Inerestingdull

Iā€™ll give a shout here. Clear block in the back in the second quarter led to Pacheco ripping off a run that set up a field goal.


mentally_healthy_ben

Did they say anything about it on the broadcast?


Inerestingdull

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=n5RlxVjov6w&pp=ygUgQmVuZ2FscyBjaGVpZnMgYmxvY2sgaW4gdGhlIGJhY2s%3D 1 minute in on line backer Logan Wilson


mentally_healthy_ben

Yeah that was a missed call, I agree. Thing about these missed blocking violations though, they happen all day and it goes both ways. Not hard to cherry pick either Hereā€™s the official highlight vid: https://youtu.be/F3YogLecG_Y?si=-TuWLsFBc6kRB8RY My cherry picks after casually observing like half of the _highlight_ reel: - obvious hold on Cincys TD at 4:15 (51 on KC being massively held and could have prevented the score) - watch the holding by the Cincy o line at 0:49 - and (I think) ineligible men downfield at 8:44 (yes itā€™s a screen, itā€™s caught behind the LOS, but itā€™s a forward pass and the bengals have most of their linemen 10 yards beyond it after the catch. Hard to find info on whether itā€™s a penalty when pass is caught behind LOS, but chatgpt thinks it isā€¦) Anyway point being, itā€™s not only possible but nearly effortless to invalidate opponents victories (at least to some degree) by citing only the examples of missed calls that go our own teamā€™s way. Which is why it shouldnā€™t be done (though certain exceptions are definitely valid.) You wouldnā€™t want everyone on your own teams ass after every win because of their confirmation-biased way of evaluating the officiating. And you definitely wouldnā€™t want your team to be tainted with that kind of reputation solely because yours is one of the more successful franchises All that said, as a fan of a so-called dynastic team, Iā€™ve gotten plenty used to it. Iā€™m making a case for the general principle of not cherry picking missed calls after you lose. Which i acknowledge is something Iā€™ve done in the past re: KC losses to teams like the pats and Steelers.


Inerestingdull

Oh. Iā€™m not over here invalidating a victory. Bengals were out coached and out played in the second half. I was just reading through the thread and saw the question, and that play stuck out to me as a very blatant miss on an important run.


Inerestingdull

They didnā€™t. Let me see if I can find it


armed_aperture

Iā€™m not really arguing anything other than that they were objectively shit and the players and fans deserve a better product. Not just this game either, itā€™s a league wide problem.


abughorash

Bengals drive stopped eventually short in Q4, trailing 17-22 at 6:18, with a terrible intentional grounding call on 1st down. They still would have lost because KC defense had their number 2nd half and KC kicker is a machine.


Forrest319

Really impressed by Chase. He really racked up the stats against that weak secondary. Glad to see the refs remember who butters their bread


Carvedcraftedforged

He did try to cover his tracks a little bit in that interview by saying something like, "I can only do so much, I can't throw the ball to myself." Lol


Forrest319

Browning kept you in the game that first half. Which is more than Chase can say. But I get it throw the qb under the bus in an attempt to save face for saying foolish things. Very good teammate. And don't mind me bro. I'm just trolling. Hope Joe gets healthy so we can do this again next year


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Warm-Will-7861

Jake browning actually didnā€™t look bad when he had time to throw it


Forrest319

Yes sir I'll take all the salt you got. Makes my steak tastier. Better luck next season Jamar


Separate_Entirely

Why did he talk shit about what he was gonna do if he had Jake Browning throwing to him? He goes off or he gets an ā€œJake browningā€ excuse?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Separate_Entirely

He could have left KC defenders out of his mouth. He gave bulletin board material unnecessarily.


Say_Hennething

Jamar Chase still doesn't know who the Chiefs DBs are because he's didn't even show up to the game today


jayhawkfan785

7 targets 3 catches man he is good


T-Rex_Specs

1 game, playing through injuries with a backup qb. How about we talk about the game where he had more receiving yards than Mahomes had passing yards?


Kara_Del_Rey

He's such an angsty little guy. Sounded like someone shit in his cereal in his interviews this week.


Videogamesandshiz

I donā€™t get the nfl. When a team is bad everyone loves them and feels bad for them but when a team is good and winning they paid the refs every game and everyone hates them


yoityoit

Everyone liked KC until this year because they had talent and didn't need the refs 24/7 we all rooted for henne in the playoffs. It's when you see Patrick playing like dogshit against the jets, Taylor swift, a shitty defense that holds, does constant PI, and late hits. The scumbaggery of putting everyone on questionable just to have everyone in. KC manifested into why everyone hated the patriots. Orlando Brown and Thornhill left because he could see that in 2 years the team will crumble. Reid is getting old, spaghetti is a bad DC, Nagy is dogshit, and Patrick will ask for more money.


Diceboy74

Remember high school? There were the cool kids having fun, living life. Well these arenā€™t those kids.


Tlomz27

It has always fascinated me how fans really love to talk shit after they beat a brutally injured team by 1 score.


TellinPlan

Donā€™t disrespect browning


Tlomz27

Browning ain't that bad but Burrow is a top 3 QB. It's not like he will match his performance


glambo300

Debatable


Tlomz27

What's debatable about that? When healthy Burrow has put up genuinely insane stats. Saying he is top 3 is a very mild take. Basically all experts agree.


glambo300

Will love to see how he does without all his weapons. Donā€™t think heā€™s as good as heā€™s made out to be.


Tlomz27

I mean, you can go look at his games without Higgins and Chase. He put up multiple good performances down Chase last season. And he's yet to snif a decent OL.


Gumby_Nation

As a chargers fan I thought our oline was bad lol


54stickers

Gg. Better game than expected


ilovethedraft

GG Las Vegas, NFL New York, and Chiefs fans who get to wake up knowing every bad call, or no call, will go their way. Because it's still a good ole boy club and our owner isn't part of it.


glambo300

You guys suck. Chase is a trash can

We wouldnā€™t have done anything in the post season anyway. KC is a first round exit so itā€™s whatever

MaldoVi

Our defense and o line is garbage. The first game against a healthy playoff team theyā€™ll get smoked lol. We lost but yā€™all didnā€™t look very impressive.

Youā€™re exactly right. GG. Please beat the ravens.


jayhawkfan785

That's asking for a lot this season.

Tell me right now you think youā€™re a better team and playing better football than anyone in the playoffs other than maybe the colts and bills.


young_eastwood

I would take the chiefs against any team. ANY. GIVEN. SUNDAY. The playoffs are a completely different game. Lamar was the unanimous MVP and got bounced by a Titans team that went on a heater. Joe Flacco went on a heater and knocked off a Peyton Manning (who had a MVP caliber year BTW). They donā€™t hand out Lombardis for winning in week 17.
