re: I think these pics of the Chiefs says a lot what is happening to our country.

Over his career he's had a few outbursts or whatever you want to call it it's not new to Reid. It wasn't a good thing that's for sure but it's not a huge deal to Reid.

This wasn't the first confrontation between the two and probably won't be the last, given their plans to return to the Chiefs next season. This one was quite vivid, with Reid almost getting knocked off his feet.

He said afterward he appreciated the veteran tight end's passion.

"He caught me off balance," Reid said, indicating the contact was worse than it looked. "I wasn't watching. He was really coming over [and saying], 'Just put me in, I'll score. I'll score.' So, that's really what it was. I love that. It's not the first time. I appreciate him.

"The part I love is he loves to play the game and he wants to help his team win. It's not a selfish thing. That's not what it is. I understand that. As much as he bumps into me, I get after him and we understand that. He just caught me off balance."

Kelce said his emotions got the better of him.

"I didn't care about my catches," he said. "I just wanted to ... I wanted the score to be different. Coach has asked us to speak our minds and I just wanted to let him know how much passion I had for this team.

"He's one of the best leaders of men I've ever seen in my life. And he's helped me a lot with that, with channeling that emotion, with channeling that passion. I owe my entire career to that guy and being able to kind of control how emotional I get and just love him."
