ESPN’s upcoming docuseries on the Kansas City Chiefs’ 2024 season was supposed to excite football fans, but it has quickly turned into an internet roast session. While Chiefs supporters may be eager for exclusive behind-the-scenes content, many NFL fans—especially Eagles supporters—are using this as an opportunity to troll Kansas City. The biggest complaint? The Chiefs lost the Super Bowl, yet they’re the ones getting a documentary instead of the actual champions. From jokes about officiating to sarcastic reactions about the series’ “ending,” the announcement has sparked more criticism than excitement across the football community.
NFL fans question why the Kansas City Chiefs are getting a documentary instead of the Eagles
The biggest complaint from fans is simple: if anyone deserves a documentary, it should be the Philadelphia Eagles, the actual Super Bowl champions. One fan sarcastically asked,
“Who is producing the Eagles documentary? They won the Super Bowl after all.” Others shared this perspective, arguing that a documentary about a team that lost the big game lacks the drama and payoff that makes for compelling storytelling. After all, sports documentaries thrive on either triumphant victories or shocking underdog stories—neither of which apply here. The general consensus? While the Chiefs’ dominance in recent years has been undeniable, the biggest takeaway from their 2024 season is that, when it mattered most, they fell short.
Super Bowl jokes flood the conversation as Eagles fans take over
The announcement quickly turned into a goldmine for Eagles fans, who didn’t hold back with their jokes. Many focused on how the documentary’s ending—the Chiefs’ Super Bowl loss—would be the highlight of the entire series.
“Can’t wait for the ending. Go Birds!” one fan posted, while another joked,
“Need to rewatch the Super Bowl part. Go BIRDS.”Others pointed out how
“anticlimactic” the series would be, questioning whether it would include moments of Kansas City’s postseason struggles or just focus on their usual success. For Eagles fans, this wasn’t just a documentary announcement—it was another opportunity to remind Chiefs fans who really came out on top.
A major recurring theme in the comments was officiating. Critics of the Chiefs have long claimed that the team benefits from favorable calls, and this documentary announcement only reignited that narrative
. “How many refs we gonna see in this documentary?” one fan joked, while another predicted
“the amount of yellow flags in this doc is about to be insane.”Some fans also questioned whether the series would present an honest depiction of the Chiefs' season or if it would gloss over their mistakes and struggles. The involvement of the producers behind “The Last Dance” suggests high production value, but skeptics aren’t convinced it will be an objective look at Kansas City’s journey.
For all the backlash, there’s one undeniable truth—controversy sells. While many fans claim they
“will NOT be watching,” the non-stop discussion about the documentary suggests otherwise. Love them or hate them, the Chiefs are one of the most talked-about teams in football, and this docuseries will only add to the conversation.
