Chiefs coach Andy Reid walked to the microphone Monday afternoon, and as he began addressing some of his team’s issues, he made it clear that his initial takeaway from the Chiefs’ 16-10 loss to the Minnesota Vikings had proven to be correct.
Namely, that the Chiefs’ miserable first half — in which they accumulated only 51 total yards — had plenty to do with a lot of self-inflicted damage, which was reflected in the number of penalty yardage they racked up by the break (50).
“I feel the same way after watching the tape — it was a game of two halves,” Reid said.
