The Kansas City Chiefs lost to the Buffalo Bills in heartbreaking fashion on Sunday after a late touchdown was nullified by a rarely-called offensive offside penalty on wide receiver Kadarius Toney.
While the controversial call by the referees was a huge part of Chiefs Kingdom’s angst after the game, Kansas City’s performance against Buffalo was frustrating to watch in its entirety. Without Isiah Pacheco in the backfield, the Chiefs offense looked listless, and an early interception thrown by Patrick Mahomes gave the Bills momentum as early as the first quarter.
Fans posted about Kansas City’s disconcerting showing on social media after the game and made their feelings about the loss clear. Some used humor to cope with the Chiefs’ defeat, while others were a bit more direct with their anger about Kansas City’s latest collapse.
Check out some of Twitter’s best reactions to the brutal Week 14 game against Buffalo below:
The Kansas City Chiefs are 8-5.
The Denver Broncos are 7-6.
The Broncos started the season 1-5 and are now 1 game back in the AFC West.Wow. pic.twitter.com/jqS7vWVdcd

This will be the 4th game this year that a WR drop or a WR penalty will erase a game winning TD for the Chiefs.

The Chiefs whining about the officials lets you know how bad it is right now. That's a brutal look.
No accountability. https://t.co/BwMuV1jD4D

It doesn’t matter because the #Chiefs didn’t deserve to win after the Toney play, but they missed a very clear offside on Von Miller on the 3rd down pass. pic.twitter.com/5DxeimDFGw

"These receivers can't get out of the way of hurting the team. Too many times at the end of the game."

Are Mahomes and the Chiefs saying this wasn’t offsides? If this isn’t off sides I don’t know what is. pic.twitter.com/kjI22Y5pyS

I'm hammering the Chiefs for their lack of accountability, but this is too far.
Mahomes isn't asking for games to be fixed for KC. C'mon. https://t.co/Li87SbXhoi

If I were a Chiefs wide receiver, I would run as far away from Mahomes as I can and go under an assumed name for the foreseeable future.pic.twitter.com/X3jDlRgK4E

Maybe he’s yelling at the ref. But maybe he’s just had it with a lot of things so far this season. @Chiefs #ChiefsKingdom @KMBC https://t.co/wSpC2QCsHw

I'll bullish on these #Chiefs for some reason.
-Loved the second half grit
-Tremendous defensive effort after early punches
-Great rookie showings from Wanya, Chamarri
-Rice/Kelce is a great duo
-Bolton is back and effective
-And I love the idea of a very, very angry Mahomes— Matt Conner (@MattConnerAA) December 11, 2023
Wait. Rice nor Toney were in on that final play. You gotta be kidding me man.#ChiefsKingdom

Chiefs would easily be the worst offense in the NFL without Mahomes btw.

Once again, a WR cost the Chiefs the game.
The Chiefs aren’t a Super Bowl team thanks to Brett Veach putting together the most pathetic, undisciplined group of WRs I have ever seen.

Andy Reid standing on the podium complaining that officials didn't warn him about Toney's alignment should tell you everything you need to know about the 2023 Chiefs.
