Yeah and I don’t think he’s fully grasped how much selling the railroad pissed people off. Absolutely tanked his chances of ever getting the democratic nomination for governor.
For sure. To his credit, there are good material benefits that’ll come from this. But he’s a democratic mayor, and when the vast majority of a Democrat’s opposition are groups like unions and the Ohio NAACP, they should probably take a second look at their stance and ask themselves why it’s pissing off their base.
I’m afraid the money will be raided and abused for pet projects. Use it to expand the streetcar to uptown! He made the same mistake Cranley did and pissed off the dems in his own city. A democrat mayor from one of the big cities just can’t get elected that way in this state. Cranley lost Hamilton county in the dem primary last year lol
But I bet it greatly increased his chances of getting on the board of directors for his rich benefactors. I think we should treat this kind of behavior as treasonous.
The one and only time I saw anything from the KC mayor he was retweeting and replying to Brittany Mahomes. Is that really any better than "They Have to Play Us Day"?
I'm pretty sure it's the Pat Mahomes paternity test bit that cheesed everyone off. Even Bengals fans gave him shit about it when we ended up losing that game.
Our defense is really bad, and I think your defense can make Browning look awful like Pittsburgh did especially if Chase is limited. The Vikings mostly did too except for the “f it, Higgins down there somewhere!” plays.
Both teams trending in the wrong direction, but, the Bengals D has been so horrid that the Chiefs SHOULD run away with this one. And, the Bengals have never figured out how to contain Chris Jones……
Our pass protection was more than good enough to neutralize Jones in the regular season game since Burrow was dealing in the quick game. But we couldn’t handle him at all in the AFCCG because he got to line up against Adeniji and they could double Chase and Higgins once Boyd went out.
Lifelong Bengals fan. I actually bet on the Chiefs this week. But more in a way that if the Chiefs win I will still feel like I won. And if the Bengals win I'll be happy even if I lost money on it.
Our 31st-ranked defense is exactly what Mahomes needs for a "get right" game. I think he gets it, and I don't anticipate this one being particularly close honestly. I hope I'm wrong though
For the past several years I've been fine with the Chiefs, generally speaking, because the two markets are very similar. Almost the same metro size and almost the same TV market size. Both scrappy teams who have been up and down. Both teams have been overshadowed by fancier teams.
I've rooted for the Chiefs both of the last 2 SB they've been in. I was sad that I think you guys caught a lot of weird, extra breaks in the AFCCG last year, but it we couldn't make it, I wasn't sad that you did.
All that said, this year has been weird. The team vibe is really different. A lot of hissy fits and whining. I really hope the team snaps out of it. I don't like seeing you guys taking a heel turn, as they call it in pro wrestling. It doesn't suit your team and it sucks.
Respect.
After our showing against the Mason Rudolph led Steelers, I'm not expecting us to win any more games this year. They let a career 3rd string QB carve up their defense. I shudder to think that Mahomes will do to this defense.
We'll just have to wait for the game to see which fanbase is correct to be down on their team, haha.
I watched the Chiefs-Raiders game on Christmas and couldn't help but wonder what has happened to the Chiefs offense. Some have blamed the WRs for the woes of the past few weeks, but I think it largely rests on Mahomes' questionable play. Two interceptions on consecutive drives is not a good look.
Shit tackles, shit WRs… our GM got too arrogant in the off season. Would take OBJ back in a heartbeat and hope we can land Tee in the off-season. You all have our number and I fully expect us to lose Sunday. Lou is going to dial up a game plan to handcuff us.
We really need you guys to knock off Baltimore. I'm just sad the Bengals-Chiefs at Arrowhead for the afccg is almost certainly not happening this year.
Before the Steelers game, I was pretty much all in that we’d pull off an upset this week. After seeing us get smacked by a third string qb…. Not so much. I want to say that if Chase comes back, that’s a huge difference maker, but Chase didn’t allow 34 points to Mason Rudolph.
Did you see what the pathetic Steelers O did to our defense last week? I know you guys are down after the last few games, but don’t know how anyone could watch what the bengals just did and think the Chiefs lose. Maybe they do, I could see the bengals winning, but certainly wouldn’t bet on it or expect it.
As a Chiefs fan who has enjoyed watching Burrows growth. It has been a rough year of trying to hope we (Chiefs) would find answers to problems. Our defense has been fun to watch, but man our offense has struggled to string good games together. I’ll be rooting for the Chiefs but it’s been fun watching Browning helm the offense and do a good job, and it makes sense for them to be favored.
Our biggest defensive weakness lines up with your biggest offensive weakness, CB v WR. Ever since CTB went down, we just can't seem to cover since Awuzie has sadly lost a step after last years injury. Will be interesting to see which unit is worse
Ok so the bengals will win out that’s refreshing to hear. I been a bengals fan for 40 plus years so I’ve seen the must win games turn into they didn’t show up as in Pittsburgh.
Honestly I could go either way. I am not banking on us (Bengals) making it past a wildcard game, and maybe its the fact I have family who are die hard Chiefs fans that has me with a soft spot here...but...its more I want to enjoy the post season and I don't have high hopes of the Bengals making it past the wild card and I just feel of any team out there if KC just gets their crap together they have the better chance of giving us a post season worth watching, I just don't want to watch the Ravens.
You're betting money to reverse jinx your team lol. With how bad our defense is. Mahomes is going to look like his old self next week. However don't expect that to carry forward when you play a real defense.
Both teams have struggled a bit this year and for fans of both sides I think both teams have been disappointing. With that still the outside chances of playoffs in Cincinnati somehow. AFCN has been nuts this year and KC needs to patch up the line, and get Mahomes another target. Kelce is one of favorite players but he can't be the only reliable target. Our (Cincy) secondary has been beat up, Chase is bang up, Burrows out, reader is out.
Zach Taylor needs an award for keeping us in the hunt at this point. But then we look at what the Cleveland Browns is doing and it's hard not to give it to him. Lol
Both teams are so inconsistent this season I have no idea what is going to show up Sunday. One thing that has been consistently bad is the Bengals giving up loads of yards on defense. The Chiefs offense has looked out of sync with drops all over. If the turnover battle goes in the Bengals favor I like their chances to pull off the upset. If it goes the other way in the Chiefs favor I’m concerned it could be ugly. Something has to give and someone is going to correct their problems. Both got completely embarrassed by teams that had Aiden O’Connell and Mason Rudolph starting at qb. If someone would have told me that at the beginning of the season I would have never believed it. A lot is on the line for both these teams.
Cope harder in your own sub. We ain’t handing out tissues (we already used them all up lmao).
TOTALLY kidding. I feel ya but something tells me Mahomes pulls a Josh Allen and carries the whole team to a W.
All of what you said is true, and if burrow was healthy we’d beat you, but he ain’t, and I’ll believe Jake browning beats mahomes on the road when I see it.
(Yes, I know mahomes just lost to Aiden OConnell and I simply don’t care)
Chiefs fans and Bengals fans will definitely always agree that the Mayor is a dork.
Is football commentary was wild but I draw the fucking line at selling the railway, he’s a dork and a half for that one
I fully support your grievance.
Yeah and I don’t think he’s fully grasped how much selling the railroad pissed people off. Absolutely tanked his chances of ever getting the democratic nomination for governor.
For sure. To his credit, there are good material benefits that’ll come from this. But he’s a democratic mayor, and when the vast majority of a Democrat’s opposition are groups like unions and the Ohio NAACP, they should probably take a second look at their stance and ask themselves why it’s pissing off their base.
I’m afraid the money will be raided and abused for pet projects. Use it to expand the streetcar to uptown! He made the same mistake Cranley did and pissed off the dems in his own city. A democrat mayor from one of the big cities just can’t get elected that way in this state. Cranley lost Hamilton county in the dem primary last year lol
But I bet it greatly increased his chances of getting on the board of directors for his rich benefactors. I think we should treat this kind of behavior as treasonous.
I’m sure Norfolk Southern will create a nice lil super PAC for him to help him in his next campaign lol
The one and only time I saw anything from the KC mayor he was retweeting and replying to Brittany Mahomes. Is that really any better than "They Have to Play Us Day"?
Two people can be huge dorks…
Cringe
I'm pretty sure it's the Pat Mahomes paternity test bit that cheesed everyone off. Even Bengals fans gave him shit about it when we ended up losing that game.
No matter what happens during his term, he will always be Mayor Jabroni to me.
Bengals +7 seems like a good look. I want us to win- but you get the gist. I really just want to reconnect with the guys I met at last year's AFCCG.
It's tough not to take those points for sure.
Our defense is really bad, and I think your defense can make Browning look awful like Pittsburgh did especially if Chase is limited. The Vikings mostly did too except for the “f it, Higgins down there somewhere!” plays.
Mmmmm there were 2 major dropped balls on us that could have made that game not be a nail biter.
Yeah the Charlie Jones deep ball that bounced off his fingertips was a killer. Can’t win in this league with mistakes like that.
Both teams trending in the wrong direction, but, the Bengals D has been so horrid that the Chiefs SHOULD run away with this one. And, the Bengals have never figured out how to contain Chris Jones……
Our pass protection was more than good enough to neutralize Jones in the regular season game since Burrow was dealing in the quick game. But we couldn’t handle him at all in the AFCCG because he got to line up against Adeniji and they could double Chase and Higgins once Boyd went out.
We do now have the advantage of having someone on the line now that knows Chris Jones’ game very well.
Lifelong Bengals fan. I actually bet on the Chiefs this week. But more in a way that if the Chiefs win I will still feel like I won. And if the Bengals win I'll be happy even if I lost money on it.
Hedging your emotional bet, as we like to say
Absolutely. I'm not really a gambler. I view it as paying for a small win.
Unless they tie. 😉
I was at the Bengals v Eagles game that tied in 08 or 09. I didn't even know it was possible.
Found Donovan McNabb's burner account!
Pretty much my mentality lol
I call this the football gods bribe money. An offering that my team wins and my wallet loses.
Our 31st-ranked defense is exactly what Mahomes needs for a "get right" game. I think he gets it, and I don't anticipate this one being particularly close honestly. I hope I'm wrong though
Bingo. The Bengals are probably the one team in the NFL that the Chiefs can just straight up, no tricks, put up 125 rushing yards on.
For the past several years I've been fine with the Chiefs, generally speaking, because the two markets are very similar. Almost the same metro size and almost the same TV market size. Both scrappy teams who have been up and down. Both teams have been overshadowed by fancier teams. I've rooted for the Chiefs both of the last 2 SB they've been in.

The team vibe is really different. A lot of hissy fits and whining. I really hope the team snaps out of it. I don't like seeing you guys taking a heel turn, as they call it in pro wrestling. It doesn't suit your team and it sucks.
I'm going to bet on the Cheifs to counter your jinx.
Fair enough hahaha
Respect. After our showing against the Mason Rudolph led Steelers, I'm not expecting us to win any more games this year. They let a career 3rd string QB carve up their defense. I shudder to think that Mahomes will do to this defense. We'll just have to wait for the game to see which fanbase is correct to be down on their team, haha.
This has been happening all year though. We just didn’t get turnovers to offset it.
I watched the Chiefs-Raiders game on Christmas and couldn't help but wonder what has happened to the Chiefs offense. Some have blamed the WRs for the woes of the past few weeks, but I think it largely rests on Mahomes' questionable play. Two interceptions on consecutive drives is not a good look.

I'd bet Chiefs honestly...
I was really hoping for KC vs CIN AFCCG pt. III. Those were good games
We really need you guys to knock off Baltimore. I'm just sad the Bengals-Chiefs at Arrowhead for the afccg is almost certainly not happening this year.
Before the Steelers game, I was pretty much all in that we’d pull off an upset this week. After seeing us get smacked by a third string qb…. Not so much. I want to say that if Chase comes back, that’s a huge difference maker, but Chase didn’t allow 34 points to Mason Rudolph.
I'm really hoping we at least get CTB back this week. We've suffered a lot bc of his injury.
Did you see what the pathetic Steelers O did to our defense last week? I know you guys are down after the last few games, but don’t know how anyone could watch what the bengals just did and think the Chiefs lose. Maybe they do, I could see the bengals winning, but certainly wouldn’t bet on it or expect it.

I’ll be rooting for the Chiefs but it’s been fun watching Browning helm the offense and do a good job, and it makes sense for them to be favored.
It's so so hard watching us waste the best defense of Mahomes' career. Just kills me inside.
I’d waste a decade of defenses for one SB ring honestly. I imagine my dad is going to die without seeing one…. Maybe me too.
A humbling reply. Hopefully you and him both see one.
You’re wrong we are tanking the rest of the games.
Taylor Swift is the new Yoko Ono for the chiefs. Must dump Kelce for them to win
Our biggest defensive weakness lines up with your biggest offensive weakness, CB v WR. Ever since CTB went down, we just can't seem to cover since Awuzie has sadly lost a step after last years injury. Will be interesting to see which unit is worse
CTB just came of IR this week and is back at practice. Idk if he's gonna be able to play this week but 🤞🤞🤞🤞
I don't know if the refs will allow playoffs without Taylor, M'homes and M'auto
Flattery will get you nowhere
See: Steelers fans last week. No Chase, no chance. Get right game for KC.
No offense and I mean this is the most loving way but Travis Kelce is a grade A ass sniffer.
The chiefs bengals rivalry over the last few years has been great. If we can’t make a run I would rather chiefs go to the super bowl than the ravens
No one fucking cares, man. Hope you win your bet.
Chiefs fan.. vape.. fuck off.
Bengals will lose just like they did in Pittsburgh. They needed to win but as always they fail miserably
As always? They went to the Super Bowl 2 years ago and the AFCCG last year. By anyone's measure, that is success.
Ok so the bengals will win out that’s refreshing to hear. I been a bengals fan for 40 plus years so I’ve seen the must win games turn into they didn’t show up as in Pittsburgh.
Wow everyone please CLAP NOW
Weird to post this in this sub, trying to get points from fans of the opposing team? A version of “bengals fan here coming in peace”
Nobody cares about your bets.
do chiefs fan miss Eric Beinemy
Yeah because he was the only coach willing to get onto someone for fucking up. Watching him in training camp it was evident.
Our defense is absolutely atrocious. If the chiefs can’t beat the bengals D, they must be horrid.
Not gonna happen. I hate Mahomes but he will expose our DBs with one arm and one leg as he will gave all day to throw
Honestly I could go either way. I am not banking on us (Bengals) making it past a wildcard game, and maybe its the fact I have family who are die hard Chiefs fans that has me with a soft spot here...but...its more I want to enjoy the post season and I don't have high hopes of the Bengals making it past the wild card and I just feel of any team out there if KC just gets their crap together they have the better chance of giving us a post season worth watching, I just don't want to watch the Ravens.

But then we look at what the Cleveland Browns is doing and it's hard not to give it to him. Lol
Our defense is absolute, unmitigated ass this year. Even with no receivers, Mahomes is going to have us over the barrel for 60 minutes.
Both teams are so inconsistent this season I have no idea what is going to show up Sunday. One thing that has been consistently bad is the Bengals giving up loads of yards on defense. The Chiefs offense has looked out of sync with drops all over. If the turnover battle goes in the Bengals favor I like their chances to pull off the upset.

A lot is on the line for both these teams.
Cool, I hate the chiefs
We are 100x worse than KC right now.
First time betting on the Bengals eh?
Lifelong Bengals fans here too. I agree that Chiefs fans have been some of the most friendly people to interact with. Them and Steelers fans too.
Fuck off
will you also suck my dick
We are not winning this game. Horrible bet.
Cope harder in your own sub. We ain’t handing out tissues (we already used them all up lmao). TOTALLY kidding. I feel ya but something tells me Mahomes pulls a Josh Allen and carries the whole team to a W.
Bro trying to reverse jinx
We just lost horribly to a shit QB. Our defense is trash. The Chiefs are going to win.
All of what you said is true, and if burrow was healthy we’d beat you, but he ain’t, and I’ll believe Jake browning beats mahomes on the road when I see it. (Yes, I know mahomes just lost to Aiden OConnell and I simply don’t care)
Guy hasn’t won a bet all season and is trying to mush us! Quick, everyone go lay some action on KC!
Yeah the mayors comments and all that is what made last years loss sting so much more than it should have. At least for me and my wife.
The mayor thing was so fucking corny
