They're also ignoring the breaks that go against us as well, that we have to overcome.
I agree with them in theory; the Chiefs won the game in Denver thanks in part to a post-safety punt return, the first the NFL has seen in 2009. They beat the Falcons thanks in part on a fake punt for a TD, the first since 2008.
But those things are occurring because the Chiefs are playing well. And while I agree these are rare things that we can't depend on in the future, it's indisputable this team has worked hard to give themselves the opportunities they're capitalizing on, and I suspect we'll see another bizarre win or two before the season is over.
