But apart from the Chiefs’ players, there was someone else who faced the heat from the fans. The Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes’ wife Brittany Mahomes.

First the Bengals’ defense snatched the ball away from the Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce to force a turnover in the fourth quarter. The score was 24-20 in the favor of the Chiefs at that point.
