Part of that might be pressure or whatever; who knows. But what I can say is getting out to an early lead against the Ravens is very rare and puts them in positions they almost never play in. I feel like the Chiefs knew that and went hard at the very beginning on script to establish that dynamic.

Very few QB’s are able to play from behind. It’s really, really hard to do it. Even Brady and Montana lose about 60% of the time when trailing by double digits. Throw in that the Chiefs have a pretty good defense this season compared to previous years, so it’s that much harder to pull off the comeback.
