1. Holy $hit! Travis Kelce!

Let's go, CHIEFS!

I took out the trash and returned and found that the Bills had scored a TD with abt 15 seconds left and I thought we were DONE!

[KS Toronado]

37. So did I, almost turned the TV off!

Glad I didn't, sportscasters are saying "one for the history books"

[Leghorn21]

2. MY NERVES ARE GONE, MILES!!!

Have MERCY!!

[milestogo]

3. The last few minutes were a roller coaster.

Mahomes must have nerves of steel. He just kept making great passes.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

5. Both teams seemed unstoppable on offense...

... near the end of that one.

Probably decided by the OT coin toss, ultimately.

[Leghorn21]

7. I *almost* called it with 13 seconds left, but I said nope nope nope, this is young Master Mahomes

here, sit tight!!

YOU KNOW, the only reason I watch football anymore is because my dear 81-year-old *crazy cat lady* friend has a major crush on Patrick!! - (I call the team “The Patricks”, actually—-)

SUCH a fabulous game!!!

[Buckeye_Democrat]

8. I thought it was over at that point too.

With Buffalo winning.

[Leghorn21]

10. I knowwwww, Buckeye!!

HENCE OUR NATIONAL NERVES ARE SHOT

[Rebl2]

15. That's what

my husband said and I said no there are 13 seconds left and the way the other teams played this weekend, I wasn’t counting them out yet.

[Rebl2]

13. No joke

My emotions the last few minutes of the game—😖😭😱🤬😵‍💫😁😁😁👏👏👏

[Buckeye_Democrat]

4. That was one of the most exciting endings...

... to a football game that I've seen!

Hospitalizations for heart issues might be temporarily elevated in KC and Buffalo.

[AKwannabe]

6. Yaaaaaaay!

What an end to a game!

Brilliant!!!

9. The OT rules suck

I didn't even care who won, but the idea that you can lose a game based on a coin toss is stupid. For some reason I'd thought the NFL fixed that after the Denver-Puttsburgh playoff game way back when.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

12. Both teams get a shot on offense, unless...

... one of them scores a TD in overtime, as Kansas City did.

It might've been some multiple-OT game if the NFL used the college rules.

[tishaLA]

14. Right. And the other team not having an opportunity

To touch the ball is what you want ake issue with. Much as I dislike college football, it's one thing to hey get right.

[AZProgressive]

27. I don't like the college overtimes

In the NFL they can play defense or hold them to a field goal. A multiple overtime NFL game would make teams too tired to play the next week and easy to bet against. It is also an advantage to play defense first in college overtime.

[Srkdqltr]

11. My husband and I, who don't like football all that much, watched.

He wanted to see if Stafford got his playoff wish.

[flying rabbit]

16. holy crap!

that was a game. I still think they need to fix the overtime rules, so each team gets a chance with the ball.

[a kennedy]

18. They do, if the first score is a Field Goal, then the other team gets a chance......if the first,

(receiving OT nod) gets a TD….game over. I love the OT rules.

[flying rabbit]

19. I still think the other QB should get to touch the ball

even if a TD is scored. Because so much more rides on the coin flip.

[Shrek]

20. It's stupid to change the rules for overtime.

Just play another quarter with the same rules.

Works for baseball and basketball.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

23. Or a shortened overtime, at least.

Like in college basketball, with the clock still deciding when it's over.

[a kennedy]

17. So sorry for all you fans of Patrick......but you will all soon learn to love Joe Burrow. 😁 😁 😁

[milestogo]

22. I already love Joe Burrow.

He helped me forget all about Aaron.

I don't have to choose just yet...

[mountain grammy]

21. four great games.. tonight's was the best

KC was the only team playing at home that won.

[CentralMass]

24. It was a great game.

[Marcuse]

25. On behalf of my Buffalo Bills, congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs.

We won’t demand a recount or storm Roger Goodell’s office.

[lastlib]

26. Your Bills played a GREAT game, too!

It took TWO great teams to make that masterpiece happen! As a KC-area native, I'm a die-hard Chiefs fan; but I've gained a new respect for Josh Allen's Bills--something I don't really have for ANY other team! It's a shame one of these teams had to lose that game! Again, to the Buffalo Bills and Josh Allen!

[milestogo]

28. The Bills are a fantastic team and played an amazing game.

They just didn't win the toin coss in OT.

[jonstl08]

33. Great Game

Congrats on a great season. Allen is a beast of a QB. Want my team (Cardinals) to draft him. Look at my post in this thread about what I think was a mistake the Bills made on the last kickoff in regulation.

[left-of-center2012]

29. Those blaming the Bills loss on the coin toss ...

… would change their tune if the Bills had won the coin toss.
The Chiefs won. Get over it.

[tishaLA]

30. Nope. I didn't have a vested interest in either winning

and it's not like we're alone, either: sportswriters have pieces up from coast to coast criticizing the rule. Because it's a bad rule. So, I guess, get over it.

[milestogo]

31. It made the most important minutes of the game depend on luck.

Whoever won the toss would have scored, because both teams were playing great.

A time limit seems fairer.

[jonstl08]

32. Bills big mistake

Hingsight is 20/20 but on the Bills last kickoff in regulation with 13 seconds left I cannot understand why they kicked the ball into the endzone resulting in no time coming off the clock. If they squib kick it and force KC to pick it up. Clock starts then and maybe 4-5 seconds come off the clock giving KC one play to get in FG range if possible. Bad clock management by the Bills.

But is was a game for the ages. Congrats to KC.

[Marcuse]

34. The coaches don't, but Bills fans still recall squib kicking to the Titans in 00.

[jonstl08]

35. refresh memory

Refresh what happened in 2000 against the Titans.

[Marcuse]

36. My memory somewhat failed. It was a pooch, not a squib.
