The Chiefs were supposed to be AFC playoff contenders, possibly threatening the Denver Broncos for supremacy out west. They looked far from formidable after getting walloped by the Green Packers on Monday night.
The Chiefs trailed by as many as 24 points in the second half, and afterwards, star running back Jamaal Charles pointed to the team being “outplayed” and “outcoached.”
“It looked like they outplayed us, it looked like they outcoached us, and I feel like (Green Bay) came out with a lot of energy — we didn’t come out with a lot of energy,” Charles said, via The Kansas City Star.
Kansas City head coach Andy Reid took responsibility for the team’s mistakes in the 38-28 loss.
“The whole thing here, offensively and defensively, was my responsibility,” Reid said, a statement he repeated multiple times.
Charles scored three times, but that didn’t offset the Packers QB Aaron Rodgers, who completed 24-of-35 passes for 333 yards and five touchdowns in a nearly perfect performance.
