The Jets vs. Chiefs match has made headlines among the NFL fans as well as the entertainment audience. Other than The Kansas City Chiefs giving a reality-check defeat to the New York Jets, there’s much more than just the match and scoreboard that turned heads around.

Talking about the match coverage, Stephen A. Smith Show’s host, Mr. Smith himself pointed out NBC for overhyping the singer’s attendance in the suite.

NBC’s Promotion of Taylor Swift

Stephen A. Smith criticized NBC for overdoing their promotion of Swift during the game, which he felt was distracting and unnecessary. He said that NBC kept showing cutaways and references to Swift throughout the night as if they were trying to capitalize on her popularity and appeal to her fans. Smith said: “Getting back to this Sunday when 27 million people watched, NBC promoted the game how many cutaways and references to the songstress throughout the night can you do, NBC.”

Smith praised Kelce for his skills, personality, and looks, saying: “Is she feeling Travis Kelce? More power to him. I know a lot of ladies that were feeling Travis Kelce. He’s a good-looking brother, a great dude, one of the greatest tight ends in the history of football, a two-time champion, charismatic personality, good looks, the whole bit. He’s the package, all right.” Stephen A. Smith’s words of appreciation for Travis Kelce’s performance and personality are a treat to learn.
