However, this year hasn’t been their best. Despite winning the last Super Bowl, the 2023 season has been a rollercoaster for the Chiefs, lacking the anticipated dominance everyone expected from them.
Proof of this was their Week 16 game against the Raiders. Despite their rivals arriving at Arrowhead Stadium as the underdogs, the unexpected turn of events in the first half of the match was quite telling.
During the first two quarters of the game, the Raiders outscored the Chiefs 17-7. As the referees marked the end of the first half, fans at Arrowhead began booing their team due to the poor performance.

Currently, the Chiefs hold a 9-5 record and maintain their position at the top of the AFC West. However, the Broncos and the Raiders trailing closely behind them could make the end of the season quite challenging.
