What went wrong in KC’s loss to Bills? Breaking down Chiefs at halfway point
The Chiefs have crossed the halfway point of their schedule, and if the season ended today they wouldn’t be in the playoffs. It’s a strange place to be for the team that’s played in five of the last six Super Bowls.
On SportsBeat KC, the sports podcast of The Kansas City Star and KCUR, Star columnist Sam McDowell shares his thoughts on where thing stand with the Chiefs, starting with Sunday’s loss to the Buffalo Bills.
The sequence at the end of the first half — in which the Chiefs settled for a field goal from the 1 — was critical in the outcome, according to McDowell.
As the Chiefs head into a bye week, we look at the second half of the season and speculate what it’s going to take to make the postseason for an 11th straight year.
