After Kelce’s message, HC Andy Reid appeared rather calmer and advised the team, “Hey listen! No dancing today.” He acknowledged that the team must prepare for the biggest battle of the season and said, “We got more to do.” He then cleared his stance on the atmosphere in the locker room, “But you know what, we gonna enjoy this like son of a bu**.”

Andy Reid continued by praising the defense of the team which kept the check on the Bills in yesterday’s game, “Defense, I am proud of you for battling. I’m proud of you man, thats a great offense(Bills). You’re battling all night.” Then came in the Chiefs’ quarterback who couldn’t hold back his pride after the team victory.

Patrick Mahomes said, “Hey they asked for it and they got what they ask for,” commenting about the team going all out in the first road game in the playoffs in a long time. He further sided with Reid’s stance, remarking, “Hey he said it, this ain’t done, we come back next week right.” Kelce added from behind, “Yeah turn it up a notch.”
