First, I think that the fact that this Chiefs team has been winning this way since Reid was hired shows that it is sustainable

But so is ball security, and no team has been better at that since Bellichik was hired in New England.

You are not going to beat the Patriots by forcing mistakes because they are too well coached.

You beat the Patriots by making stops on defense and scoring points on offense.
