The pair of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are being targeted yet again ahead of the match between the Chiefs and the Broncos. Swift has been spotted at the Chiefs’ games several times this season. Coincidentally, the Kansas City Chiefs have been winning most of their games with Swift in the audience. Taylor Swift has been to 4 games in total, all of which have resulted in wins.

Travis Kelce’s records have also seen a significant rise as compared to the games where Swift was absent. In the 4 games that she has attended, Kelce has averaged 108 yards receiving per game. He’s averaged only 47 yards in the games she’s been absent in. The global icon was absent at the match between the Chiefs and the Broncos, which, supposedly, was the cause of their loss. Skip Bayless, who is known to be a harsh online critic, saw a window of opportunity and decided to mock the Chiefs by using a Swift pun.
