The Kansas City Chiefs coughed up a golden opportunity to put away the Los Angeles Chargers and the AFC West on Thursday night, in a game that with this weekend’s NFL results would have earned them the number one seed in the playoffs.
The offense had struggles, but the story of the game was the Chiefs’ fourth quarter defense, which gave up two touchdowns and a two-point conversion in the final four minutes of the game.
This week — as I do every week — I’ll break down the numbers from this week’s game. We’ll hit the highlights, find where the Chiefs won, lost and bucked trends, and then we’ll move on to some clips of their good, bad and under-the-radar plays.
