Had KC only lost one game this season and were up vs. the faiders 41-3 and all of the starters were still in the game, particularly on the offensive side of the ball- I'd be pissed- but more so, had one of the starters gone down with an injury.
When you're only a couple of weeks away from the playoffs and you're up by that much- no need to be playing your starters.

I think Reid wants this team to be running on all cylinders when it gets to the play-offs. After two years of losing in the NFC title game, I'd do whatever was necessary to build up my team. I think kicking the ass of one of the team's thats supposed to be your main competition helps instill a swaggger.
