Defense held a high powered offense to 24 points in regulation...the Chiefs had scored 21 in the first half. This game should have been over. But the O played inexplicably horrible football in the 2nd half, and lost us the game.
BUT...we've never seen him do THAT before on that large of a stage, against a team who is frankly inferior. For whatever reason, this was a horrible anomaly. We'll be back. We'll re-tool this off season and we'll again be one of the most feared teams in the NFL. But you can't seriously think that we're just gonna go to three SB's in a row like it's nothing. That is HARD to do. We've been spoiled, and we're licking our wounds, but we've never seen such awesome football from our team like we have over the last 4 seasons, and there is no reason to think that is going to just come to an end.
Go Chiefs.

Not going for the FG and a 14 point lead going into halftime is what doomed these CHIEFS.
The CHIEFS should have scored 24 points in the first half. If they would have the CHIEFS would have won this game in regulation.
