The Kansas City Chiefs are 10-1 on the 2024 campaign. Last Sunday, they narrowly escaped with a 30-27 win over the Carolina Panthers. Kansas City rolled into this game as an 11-point favorite, but they needed a game-winning field goal to secure the win.

There was a report that emerged following the game about the locker room being shaken up by the loss. Multiple players were upset with their performances. Mahomes usually talks to multiple teammates after the game, but that wasn't the case on Sunday.

On Tuesday, Mahomes addressed the locker room's tone following the win over the Panthers.

Chiefs News: Patrick Mahomes Talks About Postgame Vibes After Week 12

Mahomes said, "We hold ourselves to an extremely high standard and unless we play our best we're itching to get back out there. . . I don't think we were disappointed, but we expect greatness from ourselves."

That's the exact kind of response you would expect from the three-time MVP. The Chiefs are chasing history and want to secure their third straight Super Bowl title. Beating the Panthers by three points when they were double-digit favorites isn't where you want to be at this point of the season.

The Chiefs know they are the team everyone is chasing in the league. As the season progresses, the games will only get more difficult.

Kansas City understands what's at stake and the level of football they need to play to make it happen. As a fan, you want the players to react and never be content with a win. It's how you secure it at the end of the day.
