On Sunday night, the Kansas City Chiefs’ #RunItBack tour hit a buzzsaw in Tampa.
In Super Bowl LV, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense totally dominated a Chiefs offense that we’ve never seen dominated. On paper, the Kansas City defense did enough to be respectable, holding Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady to 201 yards, allowing 4.3 yards per carry on the ground and the leading Tampa Bay receiver to just 67 yards. But penalties gave the Buccaneers opportunity after opportunity — and they capitalized on them. Despite a couple of admirable individual performances, the Chiefs’ offense had no such luck.
