Buffalo, NY — After a 21–28 loss to the Buffalo Bills, the Kansas City Chiefs head coach had some heated comments about the game’s controversial moments:
“You know, I’ve been in this business long enough to know that losing is part of football — but losing like this is unacceptable to me.”
He continued:
“We lost to the Bills 21-28, but that score doesn’t tell the whole story. I’ve never seen a game where favoritism was so obvious. When a player hits the ball, it’s obvious. But when he hits someone else — that’s a choice, not an accident. That hit today? It was 100 percent intentional. Don’t sit there and tell me it was just a ‘lucky hit.’ We all saw what happened afterward — the mocking laughter, the jeering, the arrogance. That’s not football. That’s disrespect for the game and the opponent.”
He emphasized:
“I don’t want to smear anyone — but everyone knows who I’m talking about. And I want to say it straight to the NFL: the imaginary limits, the timid whistles, the ‘special shields’ for some teams — we all see them. You preach fairness and justice, but week after week we see you turn a blind eye to foul play, then justify it as ‘part of the game.’”
Finally, he concluded:
“If that’s what football has become — if your so-called ‘standards’ are nothing but empty shells — then you’ve betrayed the game. And let me be clear: I will not stand by and watch my team be trampled under rules that even you don’t dare enforce.”
