There’s no arguing that the Kansas City Chiefs have been the bullies on the block in the AFC for well over a half-decade now. They’re about to play in their 7th-straight AFC Championship game, and are looking for their fifth Super Bowl appearance in that time span.
Many fans around the league are rooting for anyone but the Chiefs every week during the season, as they’re sick of seeing the two-time Super Bowl champions win all the time. That includes players, too, as Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon Humphrey’s tweet on Tuesday showed.
Humphrey and the Ravens were knocked out of the playoffs on Sunday in a classic showdown against the Buffalo Bills, 27-25. Last year, they were defeated as home favorites by the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game and denied a shot at the Super Bowl.
In fact, only the Patriots in 2019, the Buccaneers in 2021, and the Bengals in 2022 have beat the Mahomes-era Chiefs in the playoffs.
Marlon Humphrey has had enough The former All-Pro is pleading with Buffalo to go into Arrowhead Stadium this weekend and knock off Kansas City. And, if Buffalo doesn’t do it, he wants the NFC Champion to do it.
I have no reason of saying this other than being a hater. The Bills or whatever NFC team gotta beat the Chiefs. We can’t let them keep getting away with this

This comes off a little pathetic to me. If Marlon Humphrey is so worried about someone beating Kansas City, maybe the Ravens should’ve been the ones to do it.
The Bills are slight underdogs against the Chiefs this weekend, with the line hovering around 1.5 points this week. The Ravens will be watching from home.
