Dissecting the Chiefs' Second-Half Collapse

NFL Conference Championship - The Kansas City Chiefs lost to the Cincinnati Bengals in overtime of last Sunday's AFC Championship Game. Kansas City came out of the gate hot, but then watched the Bengals erase an 18-point deficit. During Cincy's comeback, the Chiefs were unable to score a point in the second half until they had fallen behind by three and had to kick a game-tying field goal to send it to overtime.

The second-half collapse from the home Chiefs was shocking. At least I was surprised watching it. The Chiefs just couldn't get anything going on offense.
