Marlon Humphrey feels exactly how everyone outside of Kansas City feels about the Chiefs right now

Marlon Humphrey and the Baltimore Ravens nearly beat the Kansas City Chiefs all the way back in Week 1. It was such a close game between two great teams, many thought a rematch in the playoffs was a strong possibility.

The Chiefs did their part by beating the Houston Texans to advance to yet another AFC Championship Game. The Ravens fell short on their end of the bargain when they fell to the Buffalo Bills.

Humphrey and his team won't be able to get revenge, so he and the rest of the non-Chiefs fans around the country have one thing left: Hate.

Baltimore's All-Pro cornerback posted on X/Twitter Tuesday afternoon how he really feels about the Chiefs, and it's the most relatable thing you'll read if you're not from Kansas City.

I have no reason of saying this other than being a hater. The Bills or whatever NFC team gotta beat the Chiefs. We can’t let them keep getting away with this

Preach with a capital P.

Sunday will be the seventh consecutive AFC title game featuring the Chiefs, all but one of them within the confines of GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. They've won more Super Bowls in this ongoing span than they've lost the game leading up to it.

Kansas City took down Baltimore, at M&T Bank Stadium, in last year's AFCCG and won its second straight Lombardi Trophy two weeks later. Two more wins for the Chiefs this postseason will immortalize them as the first team to win three consecutive Super Bowls.

In short, we know exactly how you feel, Marlon.

It's not standard for players to root for the team that just eliminated them from the playoffs, but this is indeed a special case. The Bills may have the best chance at stopping the Chiefs' quest for their chance at NFL history. If not them, one of the Philadelphia Eagles or Washington Commanders will be tasked at beating them in New Orleans.

It's a shame Humphrey and the Ravens didn't get their chance at putting a stop to the first team to beat them this season, but all he can do now is hate watch from home like the rest of us.
