The 2022 Bills are essentially the 2019 Chiefs. And yeah, we were absolutely wound tight and just a liiiiiitle insecure during that 2019 season as well.
Ain't anything hurt here.

Media put a ton of pressure on Mahomes to win a ring. Seemed like once we dismantled the then high-powered Bengals on SNF everyone in America realized we were 100% legit (except haters with heads in the sand) and the race was on to see if Mahomes would ever win a ring
I remember after we lost the 2018 AFCCG fans were asking if this was his “Dan Marino Super Bowl moment.” People were saying “you can’t just assume Mahomes will make it back here, he could be like Marino in 1984!”
Jokes on them, he’s made it back every year of his career and even won a Super Bowl
