But they have struggled to get their offense going in both, with three turnovers in their victory at the weekend.
A Harrison Butker field goal with just a minute left saw the Chiefs beat the Bengals 26-25 at Arrowhead Stadium.
But it only came after a controversial pass interference penalty late in the game.
Andy Reid’s side turned the ball over three times against the Bengals, with two interceptions by Patrick Mahomes.
And Kelce has told his team they need to be better on both sides of the ball, and not leave it to the refs.
“At the end of the day, man, you can’t put it in the refs’ hands that late in the game,” the tight end said on his New Heights podcast.
“And that’s for both of us, both sides of the ball.
“Obviously, you want to play physical and you want to make sure you make that play but if you’re going to put it in the refs’ hands, you’re playing with fire.
“It is what it is. You’re just playing with fire, man.
“That’s why as an offense, we’ve got to make sure we don’t put ourselves in a position where we have to score at the end of the game.”
Kelce opened up on the penalty call that helped lead the Chiefs to back-to-back wins.
In a fourth-and-16 situation, Mahomes overthrew a pass to wide receiver Rashee Rice.
However, they were saved by a penalty call on Bengals safety Daijahn Anthony.
It sparked huge controversy across the NFL and on social media over the alleged preferential treatment the Chiefs get by refs.
Travis Kelce The Actor
NFL star Travis Kelce recently landed his first major acting role and has a new cameo
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end plans to become a “heavyweight” figure in music and entertainment.
Kelce has seen his star power rise after going public with his girlfriend Taylor Swift last summer.
The 34-year-old has now been cast in the new horror series Grotesquerie.
Directed by American Horror Story creator Ryan Murphy, the drama is set to land on FX this fall.
Kelce will appear in the show alongside Niecy Nash-Betts, Courtney B. Vance, and Lesley Manville.
In August, Adam Sandler confirmed Travis will make a cameo in his upcoming Happy Gilmore sequel.
The news comes after Travis previously showed interest in appearing in a possible reboot.
And Kelce has urged his teammates to not let the officials decide the fate of games in the future.
“Obviously, we still feel comfortable and confident that we can get it done. But if we can win the game before that, let’s keep it out of the refs’ hands,” he said.
“Let’s keep it out of the hands of fate or things just not going our way.
“I think that’s the mentality you’ve got to have.
“Did we get lucky? Yeah, we got fortunate that they threw the flag on that fourth-and-16.
“I would love to make sure we don’t get ourselves in a situation like that again.”
