Recording Perna's Curse Wheel Results

Category: Kansas City Chiefs

  • Week 2, 2026

    Who did the Curse Wheel curse?

    • Kansas City Chiefs (#666)
    • Jacksonville Jaguars (#4)
    • Philadelphia Eagles (#10; after attempting to dislodge the wheel)

    Did the Curse Wheel curse succeed?

    • NO; the Chiefs defeated the Indianapolis Colts 33-30.
    • YES; the Jaguars lost to the Denver Broncos 13-20.
    • NO; the Eagles defeated the Tennessee Titans 24-20.

    How Bad Was the Curse?

    • The Chiefs won, but BOY was it close! Looks like the Colts are STILL catching strays.
    • The Jaguars had a 90.3% chance of winning in the 3rd Quarter (when it was 13-3), only to completely collapse in the 4th Quarter after the Broncos scored 14 unanswered points.
    • The Eagles actually had a pretty good chance of losing against the TENNESSEE TITANS in the 4th Quarter, who had a 78.4% chance to win when they were up 20-17 on the Eagles with less than 2 minutes left on the clock. But the Eagles managed to come back and score a touchdown in the literal last seconds. Almost got ’em!
      • Perna doesn’t count this one, unless he changes his mind later.

    Current Curse Win Percentage: 0.333 (1/3 teams cursed)

    Who did the Curse Wheel curse?

    • Kansas City Chiefs (“Fuck KC”)
    • Pittsburg Steelers (#12)

    Did the Curse Wheel curse succeed?

    • YES; the Chiefs lost to the Los Angeles Chargers 13-16
    • NO*; the Steelers defeated the Miami Dolphins 28-15

    How Bad Was the Curse?

    • Another week where the primary cursed team decisively beat the curse. The Chiefs’ curse was a pre-show spin by Perna, where it landed on the “Fuck KC” slot (previously assigned to “Me Personally”)
    • At worst, the curse did give the Dolphins a bit of an edge against the Steelers in the first half, letting them score first and keeping the Steelers from scoring anything more than a touchdown by Halftime. But in the second half, all bets were off.
    • The “NO*” rating is due to Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt suffering a partially collapsed/punctured lung after a physical therapist botched a dry needling attempt. I’d say at worst this is a draw, since the Steelers still mightily defeated the Dolphins. Regardless, I’m still counting it as a failed curse overall, mostly because I don’t want to be like “well this week it’s only half a curse, and then Week 8 was only 1/3rd of a curse”… but I wouldn’t disagree if you want to think of it as a half curse.
    • Meanwhile, the Chiefs were doing well in the first half against the Chargers, reaching an 85.5% win percentage in the 2nd Quarter. However, not only did they collapse in the second half, but the game ended with Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes tearing his ACL. Finally, this loss meant they were officially eliminated from the post season.
