It&#8217;s not a great situation to be in exiting Week 11.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-1\">Travis Kelce, one of the few Chiefs players who played well in Denver (nine catches for 91 yards and a touchdown), knew that&#8217;s exactly what reporters were going to want to talk to him about following the game. He opted not to speak with the reporters though and instead sent a clear message to them on his way to the locker room.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\"><em><strong>&#8220;If you&#8217;re gonna ask about the record, I could care less about that right now,&#8221; Kelce said. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<figure>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Travis Kelce didn\u2019t stop to talk to reporters after the Chiefs loss in Denver. \u201cIf you\u2019re gonna ask about the record, I could care less about that right now,\u201d he said on his way out of the locker room.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Lindsay Jones (@bylindsayhjones) November 17, 2025<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-4\">Travis Kelce doesn&#8217;t want to talk about the Chiefs&#8217; record<\/h2>\n<p id=\"inline-text-5\">It makes sense why Kelce didn&#8217;t want to talk about this. In his mind, his team has played 10 games and been woefully inconsistent but still can accomplish what they set out to accomplish by finishing the season strong. Why spend time talking about a record when there are still seven games remaining in the regular season?<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\">That being said, it is a bit of a strange feeling to see the Chiefs sitting at .500 this late in the season. Normally they&#8217;re at least at the top of their division but this loss likely means that if they do get into the playoffs, it&#8217;ll be as a wild card team. The Chiefs still have games against the Broncos, Chargers, and Colts remaining on their schedule and they can&#8217;t afford to lose any of those at this point if they want to continue their playoff streak.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\">Kelce is clearly frustrated with his team&#8217;s efforts, as are the fans, but it doesn&#8217;t sound like the record is something he&#8217;s going to lose sleep over. Now, everything else the team has struggled with, that&#8217;s probably another story.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kansas City Chiefs lost a winnable game and, as frustrating as that is, the even more frustrating part of all of this is that the team is 5-5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":121892,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-121891","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
