The Kansas City Chiefs needed a bounce-back performance coming off back-to-back losses. Luckily for them, the New York Jets came to town on Sunday.
It was a tightly contested first half as the Chiefs took a 14-12 lead into the locker room. The second half was all Kansas City, as they dominated in all three phases en route to a 35-12 win over the Jets.
Whatever Andy Reid said in the locker room must’ve resonated because the Chiefs looked like a different team in the second half.
There were plenty of fantastic individual performances for Kansas City today. Not so, for the Jets.
Late in the fourth quarter the Chiefs tacked on another touchdown. They had now outscored the Jets 21 – 0 in the second half as they cruised to an easy victory.
The loss brought the Jets’ record to 2-7. A 16th straight season without the playoffs is all but certain. Another November and December talking about next year and the draft looms.
The Jets limp home to take on the first place Buffalo Bills next week.
