The Tampa Bay Buccaneers couldn’t help but disrespect the Kansas City Chiefs before their “Monday Night Football” clash at Arrowhead Stadium.
Baker Mayfield and the banged-up Tampa Bay Buccaneers are visiting the defending Super Bowl champions in a pivotal Week 9 clash. Before the Super Bowl 55 rematch commenced, the Bucs decided to break one of the unwritten rules of the NFL.
Several folks in attendance shared photos of the Buccaneers having a pre-game huddle at midfield, and right on top of the Chiefs’ logo. According to those at Arrowhead, this led to boos from the fans:

With all due respect to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Chiefs are the last team you should do that to. Remember when the Las Vegas Raiders taunted Patrick Mahomes with a Kermit the Frog puppet in the offseason? Patrick Mahomes promised it would be “handled” accordingly, and the Chiefs blew out the Raiders last week.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Shouldn’t Have Done That
We’ll wait and see how the game plays out, but the Bucs should know better than anybody else that you just don’t do that to an opponent, especially the league’s best team.
