Instant analysis of Chiefs’ Week 15 win over Saints

Lightning-fast analysis of the Kansas City Chiefs’ Week 15 game against the New Orleans Saints.

This was clearly a matchup between two of the top teams in the NFL and it showed as much when the dust settled. It started off as a defensive showdown, but as the defenses for both teams wore down, the offenses started to show up a bit more. You can’t expect blowout wins when you’re playing against the best competition. A three-point victory might as well be a blowout given the parity between the best-of-the-best in the NFL. With a 32-29 win, the Chiefs are 13-1 and have in a way validated their Super Bowl title defense heading into the playoffs.
