The defense let KC down in that game. They were riding an 11 game win streak against weaker opponents. They were never beating the Patriots in NE. If Vontaz Burfict doesn't lay out Antonio Brown, the Chiefs would have played the Broncos instead of NE in the Divisional Round. We spanked the Broncos two months prior and caused Manning to be benched (regardless of what Denver's coaches said). Still, it was a successful year for the Chiefs. Came back from 1-5 to win ten straight and then ended the playoff losing streak. I wasn't too upset after the Patriots loss.
