Chiefs Lose to Bills, Ending Winning Streak

The Kansas City Chiefs suffered their first loss of the 2024 NFL season, falling to the Buffalo Bills 30-21, as quarterback Patrick Mahomes acknowledged key mistakes, including an early interception and a missed touchdown opportunity with rookie Xavier Worthy. Defensive end Charles Omenihu criticized the team's tendency to make excuses, emphasizing accountability and execution as crucial for their championship aspirations. Head coach Andy Reid expressed regret over not calling more running plays, which he believes could have changed the game's outcome. Mahomes completed 23 of 33 passes for 196 yards, with two touchdowns and two interceptions, while highlighting the strong performance of the Bills' defense. Despite the disappointment, Mahomes noted that the team's ultimate goal remains a Super Bowl three-peat rather than maintaining an undefeated record. The Chiefs aim to learn from this setback as they prepare for future matchups, potentially including a playoff rematch with the Bills.
