NFL fans celebrate Bengals vs. Chiefs rivalry heating up again
It sure feels like the rivalry between the Cincinnati Bengals and Kansas City Chiefs has developed into the best in the NFL.
And why not? The two sides have faced off multiple times over the last few seasons under the direction of Joe Burrow and Patrick Mahomes, including two straight conference title games.
There was some weird trash talk from mayors and otherwise before the last meeting and it sure looks like both will be in each other’s way at the very top for a long time.
Recently, Ja’Marr Chase kicked off a bit of trash talk, sparking a reply from Mahomes. The whole ordeal was enough for football fans far and wide to celebrate the new best rivalry on the block.
Here’s a look at some of the reactions to the mid-June outburst of beef between the rivals.
Not sure how Bengals-Chiefs isn’t the biggest rivalry in the NFL rn. https://t.co/Dce5gculbV

Chiefs – Bengals is my favorite rivalry. The trash talk. The elite players. The on field performances. Let’s hope this lasts.

Rivalries are good for sports. And the Chiefs-Bengals rivalry will last for a decade. It’s good for the league. Good for the players. Love it. https://t.co/uqnfaK4YrS

If you told 2013 me that Chiefs/Bengals was one day going to be the best rivalry in the NFL and that they both had to go through each other every January to get to the Super Bowl I would have laughed in your face.

I think it's so funny that Bengals and Chiefs fans get into these goofy knock-down, drag-outs on Twitter.
From everything I've heard, Chiefs and Bengals fans have gotten along WONDERFULLY at games, even in the playoffs.
Just goes to show, Twitter is not a real place.

As a fan of the Bengals, the rivalry between the Bengals and the Chiefs is taking shape before our eyes. I absolutely love it.
If you didn’t know Bengals-Chiefs football is must see TV. Every game has been decided by 3 pts. I cannot wait for all the battles to come. #Bengals… https://t.co/AU3Sv626G6
