Is there such thing as the “Madden Curse”? That’s when the football star covering the case of the video game fails miserably in following seasons. It’s happened often enough to make people wonder if curses are real. Then there’s the Jessica Simpson curse. She was dating Tony Romo, who was quarterbacking the Cowboys at the time.
The Other Kind of Cursing. NFL fans all over the world witnessed Patrick Mahomes cursing after he and his team lost to the Buffalo Bills a couple of weeks ago. It was the most epic meltdown. Those meddling refs totally blew the game by making a fair call! How dare they? Mahomes embarrassed himself multiple times immediately after the game. Some might say that, like Snickers commercials, Mahomes isn’t himself when he’s angry. Just a short time later the CHEFS, yes the CHEFS, lost to the Raiders in what some might call a minor blowout. Mahomes didn’t lose his cool in public but Travis Kelce did.
I Knew You Were Trouble. Has Taylor Swift crippled this team by dating their “star” player? Too much sugar makes one sick and I think all the praise and adoration of the Chiefs, Mahomes as the NFL’s golden child, Kelce cuddling Swift, it’s just been too much for the team to bear. They’re crumbling like a cookie and while non-Chiefs fans are sick of the Swift coverage, I think most are feeling a sense of satisfaction that the team is not firing on all cylinders. They’ll probably make the playoffs, most calculations favor that scenario heavily, but if there was ever a team that stumbled into the post-season, it seems to be the Chiefs this year.
I wonder if anyone has mentioned to Kelce that it’s time to do one of three things: shake it off, tell Taylor they’re never ever getting back together, or keep losing and become the anti-hero.
