For Pete's Sake

Chiefs fans roast team over Big Mac tweet

If the Chiefs had held on to win Saturday night’s AFC Wild Card Game, this tweet would have received a much better reaction.

But as we all know, the Chiefs lost 22-21 to the Titans at Arrowhead Stadium. One of big plays that went against the Chiefs was Derrick Johnson’s sack of Marcus Mariota that appeared to result in a fumble.

However, Mariota’s forward progress was ruled to have been stopped. The Titans ended up kicking a field goal and that proved costly.

Ah, but the Chiefs offered a silver lining: Johnson’s sack meant McDonald’s was giving fans a chance to buy one Big Mac and get one free on Sunday.

This fact, however, was not met with happiness from Chiefs fans. Some didn’t hide their displeasure.
