An October full moon wasn’t achieved until shortly after the Chiefs’ 31-28 loss to the Jaguars in “Monday Night Football” game at EverBank Stadium in Jacksonville, Florida.
But, man, there was plenty of weird stuff in that game.
There was Nick Bolton’s incredible forced fumble of Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence at the goal line, Jacksonville’s 99-yard pick-six, an interception that was missed by three Chiefs players and then Lawrence’s wild winning touchdown run.
Lawrence’s foot was stepped on by a lineman, he fell to the ground, got up and then scored on a 1-yard run with 23 seconds to play.
As the replay of the touchdown run was being shared on social media, multiple people took note of Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones. That included former KU star Aqib Talib, a five-time Pro Bowl and an All-Pro defensive back who played at KU and then helped the Broncos win Super Bowl 50.
Talib slammed Jones and mentioned former Rams star Aaron Donald.
“Why is Chris Jones standing and watching on the game winning fall down TD?” Talib wrote on X. “@AaronDonald97 would NEVER!!!”
That’s harsh, right?
Others took note of Jones on that play, and many were critical of the Chiefs star. Here is what some of those people were saying and video of the winning touchdown run.
