As our Robert Zeglinski wrote last week: The Cincinnati Bengals were playing with fire with all that trash talk ahead of their AFC title game rematch against the Kansas City Chiefs.
That included calling Arrowhead Stadium “Burrowhead,” and Eli Apple trolling Buffalo Bills players on Twitter, a year after the conerback ripped on Chiefs players before getting cooked in the Super Bowl.
The Chiefs definitely got their revenge. That included a live Instagram in which safety Juan Thornhill said he was going to smoke a victory cigar in honor of Apple.
Yep. This is what happens when your team loses after all that trash talk (WARNING: NSFW language ahead!):
"Eli Apple… Imma smoke one for you" 😅👀
