SO THIS!!! I understand that fans are complete and utter idiots. But the fact that the so-called media experts are showing clips of helmet to helmet hits and STILL saying it’s not a penalty is pissing me the **** off! I don’t care how egregious or not the hits were, they were penalties to the letter of the law. Bottom line.

I chatted about this with DaFace earlier.

I don't care. I don't fucking care. None of those sisterfucking cunts gave half a shit when we were dealing with DECADES of failure. And now all the fucking sudden 7 years of success is too much to bear?

Fuck them and fuck that. I want it all. Every fucking win I can get.

The media discourse this week has reminded me so much of how LeBron was treated by NBA media for many years, particularly during his Miami Heat years. They'd find anything and everything to diminish his accomplishments, call him a flopper, say he was ref-aided or soft, etc (despite the fact that he was posting numbers only comparable to prime MJ).

Like him, the media has now painted Mahomes/the Chiefs into a complete and total league villain underserving of their accolades and it's going to burn them. Expecting a big game from him tomorrow. He uses this shit as fuel more than any athlete I've ever seen.

I thought the same thing when I heard it.

We'll see. Refs might bend them over given the pressure from non-Chief fans & media out there, just like what happened in the last game between these 2 teams. Zero holding flags on the Buffalo OL, a DPI on Chiefs to extend a Buffalo drive on 3rd down, a drive killing OL Holding flag on KC in the 2nd half, blatant uncalled OPI for a Buffalo TD right after they called the DPI on Chiefs a few minutes earlier. Even Buffalo's #1 jock sniffer Tony Romo admitted the TD play was OPI. And the final TD run by Josh Allen featured OL holding, on 4th down no less. These were massive calls & non-calls to shift the game for Buffalo.

You mean this is going to end? :-)

It's the playoffs now.

KC gets it done in the playoffs. Whatever must be done is done. They make the play. They seal the deal. They finish.

This isn't the first fucking game KC has played with officials being involved. They have to play US.

This.

We old-timers have paid our dues in spades. We deserve this. We ain’t apologizing for shit.
[Reply]

And we ain't afraid of winning.

We've seen what legitimate HOF QB's look like. We've watched legitimate dynasties up close. We've seen every way possible to come up short or to overcome the odds and become a champion.

I can live with this. It's just like how I don't have too much of a problem with the 54-51 loss to the Rams years ago. They were regular season games and ended up not costing us. We made the playoffs. We played/are playing the AFC Championship game at home. That loss to Buffalo is virtually meaningless now.
[Reply]

I’m saying the refs very well might screw the Chiefs today. It’s what 98% of the media and fans are wanting to happen. It already happened the last time they played. I won’t be shocked if it happens again.

This! I was a fan since Lenny the cool. I was a fan during the whole shitty decade of the 80's. I watched those shit teams. Heartbreak of those 90's and 2000's that had too much talent to lose but for whatever reason shit the bed in the playoffs. We fucking paid our fan dues over 50 years.

That's over a 99th percentile game for Patrick Mahomes in terms of dropback success rate.

There were only four games this entire season where a QB produced a successful play at a higher rate.

It's the highest dropback success rate of Mahomes' entire career!

The GOAT. He used it as fuel all right.
