Happy about winning the division, but that grounding call was absolute trash. Good game, Bengals.
Well now we wait for the week 18 schedule to find out if we can rest the starters or not.
That was ugly but I’ll take the division and the bengals being eliminated every day
Butker needs a Christmas gift too!
Ja’marr chase went 3 catches for 41 yards . Hahahaha shut up bitch
For anyone brave enough to go to r/nfl just remember…. THEY HATE US CUZ THEY AINT US! LETS FUCKING GOOO
Giant Shitburger with extra Chili for the Bengals
We have the most experience of out of any playoff team just saying
Bengals tears mmmmhmmmmmm so tasty
Chase should do less talking
I don’t know who dey are but dey not going to the playoffs!
[Mod Voice] Tempting as it is, don’t go and troll the Bengals’ sub. Remember that doing so is liable to get you banned from both theirs and ours.
[Mod Voice Off] FUCK YEAH AFC WEST CHAMPS BABY

Yay! I didn’t turn the game on and we won! Curse confirmed. I promise to not watch any more Chiefs games.
Schottenheimer would be proud of this team. Butker is the GOAT, Justin Reid is the most underrated pick up of the last few years.
With this win, the Chiefs are division winners eight years in a row, and two rivals are eliminated. Good stuff.
If we can do that again and clean up some red zone playcalling, we might have a playoff team
Kicking ain’t shit. ~ Harrison Butker
Listen, backup QB my ass. Browning has been hot, Bengals have been playing well, division title at stake. This game mattered. We moved the ball and need to finish but this overall looked a lot better.
Sneed been on one all season.
Watching this team is so stressful especially this season. But a win is a win.
Needed this win so bad, s/o to the D in the second half of this game
Also, Chase sucks balls. Did nothing and will still talk. New Eli Apple.
Our worst season is 10 wins, everything goes wrong and the division rivals choke as always
It is Harrison Butker’s world, and we are all just living in it!
Jamaar Chase: 9-for-15, 116 yards, 0 TDs.
Oh, wait, that’s in his last TWO games against KC combined.
Rashee Rice: 5-for-6, 127 yards…in one game!
Last time KC eliminated CIN from the playoffs, they won it all.
Eliminate Denver and Cinci? Two things at once?
Another 10+win divisional winning season. If this is a down year in a dynasty I will take it.
They looked like imperfect champions today. The D was unbelievable.
I know Chris Jones being on the line helps, but I feel like George Karlaftis has not been given proper respect for putting up a double digit sack season
8th consecutive AFC West title – congratulations boys! Our defense, Butker and Rice balled out today 🙌🏻
SHITSHINNATI BUNGHOLES
Get my man Kelce his 32 yards next week pls
What I like most about this game is that the Chiefs themselves seemed to finally accept they are a Defense-first team this year. They played it safe, took the points, leaned on their D and while this game wasn’t without some mental miscues – the mistakes were fewer than we’ve been seeing the last month. Not sure if they’ll take next week to rest our players or not, but I hope they can clean up the rest and just bench MVS already he’s a selfish chump.

Harrison Butker’s kicking is so prolific, he single-handedly booted 2 teams out of playoff contention.
Hopefully we learn from this game and bench MVS, throw deep to Rice and Watson, fix the play-calling in the red zone, and stop throwing short of the fucking line of scrimmage and first-down marker.
Oh, and stop fielding punts from the goddamn one-yard line and start with the blitz to get pressure on the QB instead of playing back and letting our secondary get shredded all game.
I expect the starters to get some snaps next week, if not play most of the game.
I hope Kelce gets 17 yards so he finishes with 1001.
An 8th AFC West Chamionship makes for a great birthday present this year. And yes, today is my *actual* birthday. Playoff bound, LFG.
Eliminated the Bengals again. Feels so good. RIP BOZOs.
Man I am so happy for Harrison Butker being on this team and all the success he’s helped KC achieve.
I’m so glad Andy took the points every.single.time and didn’t listen to Mahomes _or_ the crowd who wanted TDs.
8-0 when they score 21 points this season.
I understand MVS is one of our highest paid players, but seriously why couldn’t you just let Ross run those routes at this point??
Everyone say thank you Harrison Butker 🙏
