Chiefs Remain NFL's Only Undefeated Team Despite Having Every Reason To Be Losing

21.10.2024 - 04:13 foxnews.com

The rematch of the last Super Bowl between the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers could have been renamed the Adversity Bowl.

Because these two teams were struggling with some serious setbacks by the time this game hit its climax. And yet, the Chiefs just found a way to win while the 49ers wilted. "We've got plenty of room to improve and eventually things will get better because we're going to get guys coming back," coach Andy Reid said after the game. "The thing I appreciate the most is guys stepping up and the other guys trusting in them to step up, believing in them.

And then the coaches coaching them. I appreciate that, to put us in this spot right here."

They're also winning with quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce not playing up to their standards. The 49ers have the same issue and the apparent loss of receiver Brandon Aiyuk for the season after an apparent ACL injury isn't going to help.
