The Chiefs were fading fast, but a suffocating defensive surge rescued their season when it mattered most.
Okay, I’ll admit it. At one point on Sunday, I thought the Kansas City Chiefs were officially done for. After a season characterized by missed opportunities, underwhelming performances, and agonizing mistakes, a fourth-quarter fumble in the red zone seemed like it would be the final, fatal miscue.
The Chiefs needed a hero, and they got one from their defense.
