The Chiefs have been on a roll since the past few weeks. While the team needs credit for their smashing results, one cannot overlook the defensive solidity they have displayed. In back-to-back weeks, the Chiefs shut down Daniel Jones and Jordan Love, prompting many to blame the opponent. They also stifled Derek Carr and the Raiders’ fifth-ranked offence thus showing that it is not a one-off.
But last night was the Chiefs defense’ biggest defense as the Cowboys had the league’s best offensive entering Sunday – by a long shot. For starters, hey had a 433-yard per-game average. Unfortunately for them, at the Arrowhead Stadium, they threw for a measly 276 yards (most of it on a last drive), turned the ball over three times, and never got their passing or run game working. Say whatever you want about the impact Patrick Mahomes has on the Chiefs, but these herculean performances by the Chiefs defence can no longer be ignored.

Post match, Cowboys quarterback spoke to the media and expressed his disappointment in losing against the Chiefs. “Pissed off, yeah, sure,” Prescott said. According to him, his team lost a good opportunity to prove themselves against a. quality side like Kansas City.
“I’m pissed when I don’t play well or the team doesn’t play well, or the offense doesn’t play well,’‘ he said, “especially when you have the chance to come out and play against a team that has been in the Super Bowl the last two years and prove to ourselves and one another what we’re capable of.”
