We all must by now recognize and should be acknowledging that when the Chiefs get or have a lead going into the mid-3rd or so of a game, Andy Reid takes his foot off of the gas, and coasts. He chooses to do this, and relies on his defense and STs to lock down the rest.
Call it infuriating, ridiculous, and painfully boring.. but it has generally worked. It also can greatly affect any total game production and efficiency stats of the Chiefs' offense.

My concern isn't whether it's boring. It's whether that is going to work against good teams. If the Jags didn't have that replay go against them, who knows who the game turns out. Or if they didn't shoot themselves in the foot at every turn.
One of my biggest concerns is what happens when we go down early to a good team. If we want to go far, it seems likely that at some point we will have to come from behind. Whether that be against an AFC West team in the playoffs, NE, ect, I doubt we will be in a perfect position every 3rd quarter.
