The Kansas City Chiefs fans have taken a breather at the moment. Their team has been knocked out of the playoffs. The fans are sad, but the HC Andy Reid might have given them something to look up for. Ried is optimistic about the year. 

The Chiefs were in the finals of the Super Bowl last season. But they were defeated pretty brutally by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This season, they could not make it to the big game. As the AFC championship slips from their grasps, the head coach gives his team some hope for the next season.

Ultimately, the Bengals beat the Chiefs after a field goal. But the actions leading up to it have caused some controversy. Joe Mixon had the ball in his possession and he was rushing towards the end zone. While in the attempt to make a touchdown, Mixon fell. He did make contact with the Chiefs’ defenders, but it did not look enough to knock Mixon down. Andy Reid wanted to challenge the fumble and ask for a review, but the officials denied it.
