The NFL is at the epicenter of media and fan attention like no other professional sports league in America, and Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones understands that.
Jones, 32 and in his 11th season, has heard it all – the Chiefs’ dynasty is over, the championship window is closed, the defense is struggling.
There are a lot of opinions about the Chiefs out there.

And Jones was asked about all those opinions out there on the CBS pregame show Sunday before Kansas City’s game at the Atlanta Falcons.
“I learned opinions are like buttholes,” Jones said live on air. “We all got ’em, they all stink.”

Alrightie, then.
Look, here’s an opinion:
The Chiefs are not necessarily the team to beat in the AFC this season. That could be the Jacksonville Jaguars, who are 14-3 in their last 17 games dating to last season, and quarterback Trevor Lawrence is playing very well.

But the Chiefs are relevant, folks. That has not changed.
They may be locked in a battle for the AFC West with the Denver Broncos, but come the postseason, they cannot be dismissed even as their most recent trip to the Super Bowl in the 2024 season gets smaller in the rearview mirror.
Now, please, do not ask Chris Jones about that opinion.
