EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs were once an undefeated powerhouse, a solid squad that many thought would challenge for supremacy in the AFC.
That seems like a long time ago.
Andy Reid's squad is 6-6 now after losing a tough one to the New York Jets on Sunday, 38-31. It was the Chiefs' sixth loss in seven games, and did little to calm the nerves of panicked fans who think their team is in the middle of an ugly collapse.
"You just continue to fight and try to win a game," quarterback Alex Smith said.
