It wasn’t the prettiest win.
But it was a win nonetheless as the Kansas City Chiefs secured a 26-13 victory over the New Orleans Saints Monday night. With the win, the Chiefs improved to 5-0 and joined the Minnesota Vikings as the only other undefeated NFL team through the first five weeks of the season.
The Chiefs controlled the game and were the better team by far on both sides of the ball. But struggles in the red zone allowed the Saints to stay close until late in the fourth quarter. The Chiefs scored a single touchdown alongside three field goals and a goal-line interception in their first five trips to the red zone.
