That's just the thing
Aside from our friend here, who chose to not only be classy but stick around after the game, I've seen plenty of evidence that suggests the average Bengal fan CAN'T accept a loss because they simply can't believe it happened.
They were so convinced they were going to win that they built a shared delusion around it. The Chiefs winning doesn't match with "their" reality so like any mentally unstable person, they devolve into paranoia, like the NFL being rigged.
