The tormented Bills serve as a symbol of the Kansas City Chiefs’ history. The reasons why this run ought to be prized
On Monday morning, as I descended into the hotel lobby to obtain a cup of coffee, I encountered a group of Bills enthusiasts who were unloading. I engaged in conversation with one of them.
With 1 minute and 43 seconds remaining on the evening of Sunday at Highmark Stadium, as Buffalo’s Tyler Bass attempted a possible game-tying 44-yard field goal, I inquired as to her thoughts.
And in such a circumstance, she could only anticipate the worst, as Bass demonstrated by his wide right pass that preserved the Chiefs’ 27-24 AFC Divisional Round victory.
Harrison Butker, Bass’s teammate, pondered late Sunday night in the Chiefs locker room amid the commotion, what Bass must be experiencing.
However, she did state that the infamous missed kick by Scott Norwood in the final seconds of the Super Bowl XXV (in 1991) continues to haunt her ever since.
“I never root against kickers, so his missed kick is unfortunate,” Butker said with a grin and an additional, “Better for the team.”
Beneficial to the Chiefs. However, in my capacity as a kicker, I can empathize with him completely, as we have all been in his position.
Even though it becomes less distinct with each passing year, it is noteworthy to recall that before Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs supporters were in a similar predicament as Bills supporters remain today: enveloped in an ever-evolving sense of apprehension that grew stronger with every disappointing development.
The stark contrast between the Chiefs and their supporters’ current situation and the agonizing times they endured in the past serves as a final opportunity to appreciate this amazing feat before the team departs for Baltimore in preparation for their sixth consecutive AFC Championship Game.
Sunday evening was chilly in Orchard Park, New York. Although not nearly as chilly as the previous week at GEHA Field that Arrowhead Stadium, the temperature was still low.
Unsurprisingly, the Chiefs players desired a lengthy, steamy shower after their postgame celebration. One issue: the hot water within the Chiefs locker room at Highmark Stadium stopped working. This is what offensive tackle Donovan Smith of the Chiefs asserts.
“Dangered, I got an L, and they cut off our hot water… “#ChiefsKingdom smh it’s all good we got that dub today,” Smith wrote on X (previously Twitter) following the Chiefs’ 27-24 victory against the Buffalo Bills.

You may be contacted by a reporter seeking additional information. Chris Jones, a defensive tackle for the Kansas City Chiefs, energized the pregame warmups in Manor Park, New York, before Sunday’s AFC Divisional match against the Buffalo Bills.
Jones was captivated by the spectators in the bleachers at Highmark Stadium; to communicate with them, he traversed an end zone.
Although the situation never deteriorated significantly, it was evident that Jones and supporters were exchanging vicious glances.
Jones made a significant red zone interception of a pass by Bills qb Josh Allen as soon as the game began. On its opening drive, Buffalo, who had moved within the Chiefs’ 10-yard line, needed to kick a field goal.
