The article highlights the overwhelming challenge of facing Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, particularly in tight matchups like the recent AFC title game against the Buffalo Bills. It illustrates how moments of near victory for teams create a sense of madness and denial, as fans grapple with feelings of helplessness against a superteam. The author emphasizes the psychological impact of these close losses and how it often leads fans to blame external factors instead of acknowledging the Chiefs' unrivaled talent and strategy.
To lose to the Chiefs is to be trapped in a room of nothing but sliding doors, all of them bolted shut.
It feels better to deny greatness... than to accept that you and your team's powerlessness against it.
Buffalo should have won that game, you'll tell everyone... Fetch me my bag of asterisks.
The Bills were just an inch away from beating the Chiefs... But nefarious external forces... deliberately fixed the outcome in Kansas City's favor.
