Chiefs become latest team to cry “Rule change!” after losing to the Patriots in the playoffs

The 2018 Kansas City Chiefs may not have joined the ranks of championship teams, but they have added themselves to another exclusive club: those lobbying for changes to the NFL’s rule book after seeing their season end at the hands of the New England Patriots. The Chiefs, of course, lost the 2018 AFC Championship Game against the eventual world champions in overtime with a final score of 37-31.
