Ed Kelce has endeared himself further to the Kansas City Chiefs fanbase by taking on Buffalo Bills supporters on social media.
Travis and Jason’s father went into bat for the Chiefs over a meme shared by a Bills fanpage mocking his son, Kelce’s quarterback Patrick Mahomes and head coach Andy Reid.
The post in question had Kelce, Mahomes and Reid’s faces photoshopped into a video from the film ‘Step Brothers’, where the two main characters burst into tears when their parents announce they’re getting divorced.
The post was captioned: ‘Chiefs fans facing their first potential missed postseason since 2014’.
And it provoked a defiat response from Ed Kelce, who took it upon himself to put Bills Mafia back in its place.
‘If the Chiefs don’t get in the playoffs, then the path is clear for the BILLS TO LOSE ANOTHER SUPERBOWL,’ Ed wrote in the comments to the post.

His response is particularly funny because the Chiefs have had a stranglehold over the Bills in the Mahomes era – the Chiefs quarterback is 4-0 against Buffalo in the postseason from 2020.
Furthermore, the Bills remain one of 12 teams to have never won a Super Bowl, losing all four of their appearances in football’s showpiece event.
But with the Chiefs’ postseason aspirations hanging by a thread after Sunday’s loss to the Houston Texans, the path is potentially clearer for Josh Allen and his men to make another Super Bowl.
As talented is Allen unquestionably is, the Bills haven’t been too impressive this season. They sit on a 9-4 record despite having a much more favorable schedule than the Chiefs, 6-7, and are two wins behind AFC East leaders New England Patriots.
The Bills face the Patriots in their next game, with New England coming off a bye week for the showdown at Foxborough.
The Chiefs, meanwhile, need to win their four final games against Los Angeles Chargers, Tennessee Titans, Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders and hope other results go their way.
They aren’t done yet, but Sunday’s loss to the Texans will be seen as the tipping point if they fail to make the postseason.
And if the worst happens for Kansas City, Ed Kelce is sure that the Bills won’t get the crown that they do desperately crave.
