The 30-21 loss ended the Chiefs’ quest for an undefeated season, dropping them to 9-1 on the year.
Kansas City is still in prime position to take the AFC West and the No. 1 seed in the conference, but there is reportedly some tension regarding the loss inside the building.
In a since-deleted post on X, NFL reporter Darren Smith claimed that Hunt was “p***ed” at his team for the loss.
Smith went as far as to say that Hunt’s level of anger may have been an “understatement.”
The post being deleted so quickly does cast some doubts on the legitimacy of the report, but fans still had plenty to say about it.
“Clark Hunt is ‘pissed’ that his football team, that he spends no money on and routinely ranks amongst the bottom in the offseason report card by players, lost their first game in over 338 days,” one fan wrote.
“Loooool Clark Hunt should be mad at himself,” another fan said.
“Surely Clark Hunt treats his own players well right?” a third fan said.
The fans aren’t completely out of line when complaining about Hunt’s ownership.
He is consistently rated as one of the worst in the league based on his investments into his team.
In a report card given to every NFL team based on polling of players, the Chiefs were rated as one of the worst places to play.
They were given an F grade for their nutritionists, locker room, training staff, and ownership.
Hunt was rated as the worst owner in the league with an F-.
Despite Hunt’s reported anger and his issues behind the scenes, members of his team are motivated to improve from the recent loss.
They tried to preach using the loss as motivation to finish the season strong.

“We feel like we can play better, so we will get back to work and try to use this as a spark so that we can be a better football team in the end,” Mahomes said.
“The undefeated thing was cool, but that’s not our ultimate goal.
“I’m hoping that it is a benefit.”
The Chiefs will move on to playing the Carolina Panthers on Sunday in an attempt to refocus after the loss.
