The beauty of social media is the ability to capture on-the-spot emotions. NFL Fans may go through a roller coast ride, but media members also experience the ride.
So if fans ever find themselves without a TV on game day, just tune in on Twitter.
A sample of Sunday reactions to the Chiefs-Titans game, won by the Chiefs 26-17, from some players, members of the NFL media and members of the Chiefs media.
PREGAME
I never had an opportunity to go 5-0 since I’ve been a Chief. Don’t wanna let this moment slip, GAAAAME DAY!!! Easily motivated, TURN UP.

FIRST QUARTER

Chiefs have special teams TDs in back-to-back weeks. 2 special teams TD in 2013. Last time KC had at least 2 ST TDs in a year was 2009 (3) — ChiefsCommunications (@ChiefsPR) October 6, 2013
Somewhere Scott Pioli is saying “That s**t never happened for me” — Danny Clinkscale (@dcwhb) October 6, 2013
If the first series is any indication, Titans center Rob Turner is gonna have a long day against Dontari Poe. #Chiefs — Terez A. Paylor (@TerezPaylor) October 6, 2013
If the #Chiefs weren’t playing so sloppy they could be up 21-0 right now. — Nick Jacobs (@Jacobs71) October 6, 2013

Chiefs outgaining Titans 123-10. — Eric Edholm (@Eric_Edholm) October 6, 2013
And the #Titans now have a first down. The crowd roars. 7:54 left in 2nd quarter

This Chiefs defense brings back memories. #martyball
— Bill Maas (@BillMaas) October 6, 2013
Yeah, the #chiefs defense is pretty good. 1st and goal from the 1 and they can’t score. That was impressive — Bob Fescoe (@bobfescoe) October 6, 2013

THIRD QUARTER

Tough to defend that. You just can’t let their check down/most dynamic player have a chance in space. — Nick Jacobs (@Jacobs71) October 6, 2013
What in the hell was Kendrick Lewis doing on that score? — Carrington Harrison (@cdotharrison) October 6, 2013
Hey #chiefs fans, stop blaming the refs…starting holding the offense accountable — Bob Fescoe (@bobfescoe) October 6, 2013
Chiefs had 20 yards in 3rd quarter, Titans 10-1 in first downs this half. Titans had 83 yards in first half, 153 in 3rd quarter — Vahe Gregorian (@vgregorian) October 6, 2013
Momentum clearly in Titans favor. KC offense hasn’t done much. Pressure’s on. — Arrowhead Pride (@ArrowheadPride) October 6, 2013
THE BIG FOURTH QUARTER
—–
Ryan Fitzpatrick playing #Chiefs Killer now. Titans grab 17-13 lead on his scramble TD. — Jeff Rosen (@jeff_rosen88) October 6, 2013
Last time Chiefs trailed was in 3rd quarter of second game vs. Dallas. Have only been behind for 15:05 all season. — Vahe Gregorian (@vgregorian) October 6, 2013
Jamaal Charles in for the score. Just your normal fourth-quarter performance from “The Closer.” Chiefs retake lead, 20-17, over Titans. — Herbie Teope (@HerbieTeope) October 6, 2013
Cooper with a MAN interception. #Chiefs — TJ Carpenter (@TJCarpenterWHB) October 6, 2013
Defense wins……………………………………………………………………championships. #Chiefs — Johnny Kane (@johnnykane9) October 6, 2013
Quintin Demps = INT = #CHIEFS ball #KCvsTEN — Reid Ferrin (@KCChiefs_Reid) October 6, 2013
Opportunistic #Chiefs defense saves day for Alex Smith and his anemic 60.3 QB rating. — Jeff Rosen (@jeff_rosen88) October 6, 2013
#Chiefs are poised to go 5-0 today for the first time since 2003 and only the second time in franchise history. — Terez A. Paylor (@TerezPaylor) October 6, 2013
Audible Tomahawk Chop at LP Field. Chiefs n Chopper — Arrowhead Pride (@ArrowheadPride) October 6, 2013

Perfection, cont’d: Chiefs topple Titans, 26-17. 5-0!! http://t.co/28CKFG1Dyd — Arrowhead Pride (@ArrowheadPride) October 6, 2013
Think about how scary Chiefs will be once offense puts together full game and team is 100 percent balanced. Overall solid now, can be great. — Herbie Teope (@HerbieTeope) October 6, 2013
Today’s ridiculous stat, courtesy of @todpalmer: Dontari Poe had more tackles today (seven) than any of the #Chiefs‘ linebackers.
— Terez A. Paylor (@TerezPaylor) October 6, 2013
