The Final 2 Minutes Of The Bills-Chiefs "13 Seconds" Playoff Game Is Even Crazier Than I Remember

First off, I would like to apologize to any sicko Bills fans that clicked on this blog for some ungodly reason. This is not a shot at you or your team. This is just me marveling at how fucking awesome the end of this game was after it popped up on my timeline.  You know a game is special when someone does a Tecmo Bowl remake of the ending. 

We all remember the 13 Seconds tag line and that the Chiefs won. But the specifics have faded in my admittedly shitty brain that is only getting shittier the older I get along with the amount of responsibilities I have as a parent.

I completely forgot about Gabe Davis being anything but a bunch of poor bastards' fantasy kryptonite that would drop goose eggs until you placed him on the bench, then inevitably go off for 25 while riding the pine. Yet when I saw him juke that Chiefs DB out of his cleats, I instantly remembered he scored four(!!!) touchdowns in the biggest playoff game of his life. That two point conversion is flat out absurd and another play that went from legendary with a win to forgotten in a loss right alongside Jermaine Kearse's catch against the Patriots in Super Bowl XLIX and Julio Jones' catch against the Patriots in Super Bowl LI. Tyreek Hill being on the Chiefs is surprisingly jarring even though it wasn't that long ago, and it honestly feels kinda unfair that he was ever allowed to play on the same team as Patrick Mahomes. Then obviously you have all the ridiculous Travis Kelce plays that happened before he became a megastar thanks to who he was dating and Harrison Butker showing off how he is a big manly man who never makes his own dinner by drilling a 49 yard field goal with the entire season on the line.

Maybe the craziest shit of all is that this game didn't lead to the Chiefs winning the Super Bowl or even appearing in one, which is the only time in the last five seasons that they didn't make The Big Game™. Instead, it ended with the Bengals taking down the Chiefs the following week, changing the name of Kansas City's stadium to Burrowhead for a year, and spawning that heated rivalry. 

If the Football Gods care about our happiness, and by the look of the Eagles odds to win the Super Bowl right now I'm not sure they do, they will give us another instant classic that has so much awesome shit happen in it we will forget most of it three years later. Or at least a game that stays one score the entire time. I'm not getting my hopes up considering how much the two offenses have changed over the last three years. But I'll take anything close to a game that even has a few of those highlights at the top of the blog (and if it wouldn't be too much to ask, please let the winner play the Commanders in the Super Bowl).
